At least one commissioner will be at the BOPC meeting. Show up for comments

“Detroit police commissioner Willie Burton said he plans to go to Public Safety Headquarters at 3 p.m. Thursday, the usual place and time for weekly board meetings, to protest board chair Lisa Carter’s decision to suspend the meetings for two weeks.

“I’m showing up, and here’s why: we can’t let fear hold us hostage, and we must protect our civil liberties,” Burton said. “This motion was not voted on, and it’s a violation of the Open Meetings Act.”
