The Charlottesville Police Civilian Oversight Board is scheduled to meet on Thursday evening but they cannot take any actions because there are not enough members to make a quorum.
“A quorum of the Board shall be four (4) members,” reads the December 2021 ordinance that created the body as a replacement for the Police Civilian Review Board.
Currently there are only three voting members and one non-voting member with four vacancies.
“They can meet but they cannot vote,” said Afton Schneider, the city’s director of communications and public engagement.
The city is seeking applicants for this board as well as several others. Learn more in a story posted earlier this week.
