Burnaby’s community policing committee has a new name.
The new public safety committee, as it’s now called, held its first meeting on Feb. 3 at city hall. In light of the name change, the structure of the committee, which liaises with the Burnaby RCMP about crime and safety concerns in the community, hasn’t changed. It will continue to meet every two months and include presentations by the Burnaby RCMP and updates from the city’s four community policing advisory committees.
The public face of the committee will also remain the same. Pietro Calendino was once again appointed chair of the committee, a title he’s held for many years.
The next public safety committee meeting is on March 12 at 6 p.m. in council chambers. The meetings are open to everyone.
