On Civil Service For Policemen
The proposed three ( 3 ) man Civil Service Board will not provide equal representational and protection for all citizens.
The present seven man Trail Board has a representative f r o m each District,
thereby providing protection for minority groups and preventing the formation
of a "POLICE S T A T E " situation in the City cf Pontiac.
The disciplining of Police Officers under a three man Board, one of whom they
will appoint, would be practically impossible and could lead to Police Brutality
and willful violations of Civil Rights.
