Mayor called the Middletown Police Commission to order and confirmed a full board was present; the mayor said he would turn the meeting over to the police chief.
At a regular meeting of the Middletown Police Commission, the police chief delivered the monthly report covering August and September statistics, staffing and recruitment updates, recent awards and community events, and proposed seven policy updates. The commission accepted two internal investigations and approved multiple policy updates, then voted to move into an executive session to interview police officer candidates. Several operational details — academy start dates, upcoming agility testing and a recently hired dispatcher — were discussed alongside crime statistics showing year-to-date declines in Part 1 crimes.
