Narberth advisory committee updates charge, plans outreach and representation at Public Safety meetings
Summary
The Police Advisory Committee reviewed a recently updated committee charge, discussed outreach channels (website, anonymous suggestion box, Narberth Day) and agreed to assign members to attend Public Safety Committee meetings for reporting and coordination.
The committee reviewed a recently updated advisory‑committee charge that borough council had approved earlier this year and discussed the committee’s role in community outreach and reporting to the Public Safety Committee.
Committee members agreed they should both hear reports from borough staff and the police department and make it easy for residents to flag police‑related concerns. Suggestions included reinstating an anonymous suggestion box on the borough website (or a suggestion form), posting clear guidance on the department page and FAQ, and placing informational materials at civic‑association tables and Narberth Day events.
Representation: the committee committed to sending at least one member to upcoming Public Safety Committee meetings (April 10 and dates in May and June were mentioned) to report the advisory committee’s discussions and to gather information shared in the Public Safety forum. Members noted virtual attendance options and volunteered to circulate sign‑up details by email.
Next steps: committee members will review the police department page and FAQ before the next meeting, follow up with borough staff about reinstating a web suggestion box for police‑related feedback, and confirm volunteer coverage for Public Safety Committee meetings.
