Porterfield gets pushback on civilian-police review changes | The Daily Gazette SECTIONS SCHENECTADY — City Council decisions on whether Schenectady’s Civilian Police Review Board should have different rules or enhanced powers as part of police accountability reforms were postponed Tuesday after some of the proposals by Public Safety Committee Chairwoman Marion Porterfield got significant pushback. After a lengthy discussion at a virtual committee meeting, further talk was tabled for two weeks to give City Corporation Counsel Andrew Koldin time to do research on whether review board members should be required to sign confidentiality agreements, and whether the review board should know the names of officers whom they are reviewing complaints about.
