Putnam County Executive MaryEllen Odell announced that the county’s Police Policy Comprehensive Review has been filed with the state in advance of the April 1 deadline.
“This was a demanding and time-consuming process and I’m very grateful to all who participated,” County Executive Odell said. “While the review was required by the state, it gave us a chance to take an honest look in the mirror and see how we are doing and where policing needs to improve in the county. I want to thank all the stakeholders and the subcommittees that contributed valuable ideas. The work is not done yet, it will be ongoing. We will continue to review police policies with an eye to equity and fairness.”
