What if I want to let the police department know that an officer was very helpful to me?
If you would like to let the Police Department know when an officer has been very helpful or has done something which warrants a compliment, we would be happy to hear from you. You can handle this in two ways: 1. Call or email either the Chief or Lieutenant, and they will notify the officer of the positive feedback. 2. Write a letter to the Police Department that states the date and time of the incident and, if known, the officer’s name. The officer’s supervisor will then give the officer a copy of the letter and also place the letter in the Officer’s personnel file. Feedback is always welcome and appreciate from the community which we serve.
What if I feel frustrated or dissatisfied after an encounter with an officer?
There are times when people have left a encounter with a police officer feeling frustrated or dissatisfied. Many times this is because the you may not have understood why you were stopped or do not feel you have committed the violation. The Town of Summit Police Department does not condone police misconduct of any type. All complaints of misconduct are investigated and appropriate action is taken. If you have a complaint that you would like to make the Police Department aware of, please call the department, using the non-emergency phone number, and speak with the Chief of Police directly during the day. During the evening, call and speak directly to the Lieutenant. Your concern will be discussed and procedures for further action will be addressed. |
