Town hall meeting
On Wednesday, May 1, 2024, Chief Billy Aldridge and the Chico Police Community Advisory Board (PCAB) will hold a town hall meeting at the Old Chico City Hall. This event aims to foster community engagement and give community members an opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions with the police department and advisory board representatives.
On March 15, PCAB launched a Community Survey. The objective of the survey was to gauge the community's perceptions of the police department and help identify areas for improvement and prioritization of police services.
During the town hall meeting, Chief Aldridge and members of PCAB will present an overview of the survey results. Additionally, attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions.
PCAB extends their appreciation to all community members who have completed its survey and shared their valuable feedback.
For further inquiries regarding the town hall meeting or the community survey, please contact any of the PCAB members listed on the City of Chico website at:
