City-County Council Republicans Take Issue With Partisan Appointment To IMPD General Orders Board
INDIANAPOLIS Last year, the Indianapolis City-County Council passed a plan to form a new general orders board for the Indianapolis Metro Police Department.
The board will be made up of four civilians and three police officers, meaning civilians will outnumber officers on the primary committee that sets policy for the police department. Two of those civilian members were appointed to the board on Monday.
They are Indiana University McKinney School of Law professor Lahny Silva and Dr. Clyde Posley, Jr., a pastor at the Antioch Baptist Church in Indy.
