Local activist urges NACOL to "keep a sharp eye" on Madison oversight battles
Summary
Amelia Roykomauer, a founding member of a local community response team, told the council she values NACOL but asked the organization to guard against rumors and misinformation and to monitor local dynamics around civilian oversight reforms.
During the public comment period, Amelia Roykomauer introduced herself as a founding member of a community response team focused on police accountability and told the council she welcomed NACOL's presence.
"I am grateful that there is a member of NACOL here tonight," she said, and recounted local cases and the community's long involvement in oversight reform. Roykomauer urged NACOL to be cautious about local relationships and warned that some community members who invited NACOL had been "part of rumor mills and misinformation" since the current administration arrived. She asked NACOL to "please keep a sharp eye on what's going on."
Her remarks were the only public comment on item 2 (the NACOL presentation) and were time-limited by the presiding officer. NACOL presenters later answered questions from council members about independence, training, and access to records.
