Police Accreditation Assessment Team Invites Public Comment

The public is invited to weigh in on the Franklin Township Police Department’s effort to once again be accredited through the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police.

Accreditation by the NJSACP “results in greater accountability within the agency, reduced risk and liability exposure, stronger defense against civil lawsuits, increased community advocacy, and more confidence in the agency’s ability to operate efficiently and respond to community needs,” Public Safety Director Quovella Maeweather said in a press release. “This accreditation sends a strong message to our community that maintaining the highest levels of public safety is a top priority.”
