City of Elgin issued the following announcement on July 17.
As part of the Next Steps Policing Initiatives, the Elgin Police Department is restructuring the existing community advisory group, expanding it into seven groups that have representatives from each of Elgin’s patrol beats. The seven groups are geographically close to one another and are comprised of the following:
Community Advisory Board #1 | 102/201/202
Community Advisory Board #2 | 101/301
Community Advisory Board #3 | 302/401
Community Advisory Board #4 | 501/502
Community Advisory Board #5 | 601/602
Community Advisory Board #6 | 701/702

Interested in being a part of discussions pertaining to the future of policing in Elgin?
Register to serve on a Community Advisory Board at https://bit.ly/2AxNUug. Registration will remain open through July 18, 2020.
Once advisory boards are established, the meetings for each board will be planned by the community members who comprise each board. One city council member, one police officer and one police supervisor will be attending the board meetings to hear community concerns and to receive input regarding EPD policies and practices. Meeting locations are to be chosen by the members of the board and each board will be led by a chair and co-chairperson. Those interested in joining an advisory board will be committing to a once-a-month meeting that is anticipated to last two hours.
