Citizens Public Safety Review and Appeal Board
The Citizens Public Safety Review and Appeal Board (CPSRAB) provides community oversight of the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety. CPSRAB hears community complaints that are appealed after they have been investigated by the Office of Professional Standards. The Board also serves in an advisory role to improve public safety service and policies, and works to build community trust, credibility and confidence. CPSRAB Policies & Procedures of Operations are linked here.
Meetings
CPSRAB meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m. Meeting details are posted in advance of each meeting and linked here once available.
Due to COVID-19 all in-person, public meetings are held at City Hall in the 2nd Floor City Commission Chambers and are currently streamed live to the City of Kalamazoo’s Facebook and YouTube channels.
