Milton Police Chief Rich Austin has made a commitment to meet once a month with a diverse group of eight members of the community to discuss Milton Police Department policies, practices, and to provide Austin with feedback.

Several community members reached out to Austin following the unrest of 2020 to ask questions and express a desire to get further involved with the police department. This reignited an idea Chief Austin had when coming to Milton for an Advisory Board made up of community members who would provide him with information and feedback, and who he would work collaboratively with furthering the mission, vision and values of the Milton Police Department.

The Milton Chief’s Advisory Board has already provided feedback and input on the department’s updated use-of-force policy. Information: www.cityofmiltonga.us/ChiefsAdvisoryBoard.
