Description
In the wake of protests in response to the murder of George Floyd, the Burlington City Council voted to reduce the Burlington Police Force by 30% and called for reforms in how we approach public safety. The city administration appointed a special 6 month liason to assess the Burlington police, calling the position the Director of Police Transformation. As part of that work, conversations were convened between citizens and police officers.
