Wicked Local Asked to weigh in on the differing visions of public safety offered by the Select Board’s Committee on Policing Reforms and the Task Force to Reimagine Policing in Brookline, community members had some ideas of their own. Residents at a public hearing Tuesday shared thoughts on local policing, often endorsing one group’s recommendations over the other and occasionally hurling accusations of bias. The committee and task force have been compared and contrasted from conception, with one setting out to improve the town’s existing policing and the other considering bold changes to the public safety model. Both were convened by the Select Board.
