The Township and STPD are committed to engaging in productive dialogue in assessing their policies and procedures to maximize community-police engagement and to identifying strategies to improve the level and quality of protection offered to all residents. The purpose of this survey is to receive community feedback that leads to conversations about how to improve said policies and enrich police-community relations in our Township.
The survey deadline is April 30th.
