 This body is charged with addressing the following, specifically, and any other area the committee may deem appropriate.

  • Is a Citizen Review Board necessary in Vergennes, and, if so, why.
  • What are the benefits of police oversight?
  • What are the features of an effective police oversight body?
  • What are the steps involved in implementation?
