“When we looked at the prior board, it was called the policy advisory committee when it was originally created, it was very heavy on police participation and rather light on community representation. This time, we want to make sure the group itself reflected the intent of the group in the first place,” Chief Noakes said Tuesday.
Noakes briefed Fort Worth city councilmembers Tuesday, explaining the duties before the board includes reviewing and understanding Fort Worth Police Department policies. The board can also serve as an additional avenue to receive complaints or compliments and direct them to the city’s Office of Police Oversight Monitor.The first meeting was held on May 30 and the most recent meeting was on July 31.
