As a state mandated committee reviews police policies and procedures in Schenectady, the city’s existing Civilian Police Review Board is suggesting its own improvements.
In January, Schenectady’s Civilian Police Review Board submitted to the city council a report on a number of possible changes related to the board, which for years has been tasked with fostering communication between the city police department and the public.
Richard Shave is chair of the nine-member CPRB. Along with CPRB co-chair Carl Williams, he also serves on the city’s Police Reform and Reinvention Collaborative steering committee, which has been examining police procedures over the last several months.
