A team of assessors from the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police on Wed., March 20, will examine all aspects of the Asbury Park Police Departments policies and procedures, management, operations, and support services.
“Verification by the team that the Asbury Park Police Department meets the Commission’s ‘best practice’ standards is part of a voluntary process to achieve accreditation, a highly prized recognition of law enforcement professional excellence”, Police Chief David Kelso said.
As part of this final on-site assessment, employees and members of the general public are invited to provide comments to the assessment team. They may do so by telephone or email. The public may call (732) 502-5705 on Wed., March 20, between the hours of 110 and 11 a.m. Email comments can be sent to michael.casey@cityofasburypark.com.
Telephone comments are limited to five minutes and must address the agency’s ability to comply with the NJSACOP standards. Contact Sgt. Michael Casey at (732) 502-5705 for information about the standards.
Anyone wishing to offer written comments about the Asbury Park Police Department’s ability to comply with the standards for accreditation is requested to email the Accreditation Program Director at hdelgado@njsacop.org or write the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police, Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission at 751 Route 73 North, Suite 12 Marlton, N.J. 08053.
