The Stony Point Police Department is participating in the New York State Police Reform and Reinvention Collaboration process as ordered by the Governor last year. During this process, a stakeholder’s group of residents, business owners, clergy etc. have been assembled and are meeting to discuss the various topics for consideration laid out by the Governor in his executive order. This group made up of men and women from different racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds and representing various aspects of our community such as senior citizens, business owners, parents, grandparents, boy scout leader, 4 different churches, former law enforcement, people with disabilities, an attorney, a member of the North Rockland Central School District Board of Education, educators, volunteer fire department and numerous other organizations.
The next step in the process is community engagement on this topic. Keeping in mind our community’s safety during the COVID 19 pandemic, we are arranging a zoom meeting on January 21st, 2021 at 7:00pm. This meeting will be for our residents and business owners to offer public comment on their thoughts for changes they would propose to the stakeholders for consideration of inclusion in the plan being developed. This draft plan will be presented at a later date, to the Town Board to hold a public hearing and allow further public comment. The plan will then be formulated with any updates and presented to the Town Board for review, any amendments they make and finally adoption. This process must be completed and forwarded to New York State by April 1st, 2021.
I am including the Zoom webinar link below. In order to allow maximum participation by our residents a three-minute comment time limit will be in place for each speaker.
You are invited to a Zoom webinar.
