Citizen Police Review Board - Quarterly Zoom Meeting, October 15, 2026

The City of Winston-Salem Citizen Police Review Board held its quarterly Zoom meeting on October 15, 2026. The board approved the April 16, 2026 minutes following a correction to the year in the draft. It also considered the July meeting minutes; that meeting had lacked a quorum and no action was taken then. Members reviewed third-quarter complaint reports, including external matters involving departmental directives, use of force, and dissemination of information, as well as internal complaints. Staff clarified the meaning of departmental-directive and duty-requirement violations. The transcript reports four internal matters open and one closed as sustained; some complaint counts and categories are unclear in the transcript.

The board formed a nominating committee to assess interest in the chair and vice-chair positions and present a slate for a vote at the January meeting. No procurement, contract, budget, or spending activity was identified.
