Police Accountability Board

The Police Accountability Board was created to promote public trust through independent, objective, civilian oversight of the Berkeley Police Department; provide community participation in setting and reviewing Police Department policies, practices, and procedures; and provide a means for prompt, impartial and fair investigation of complaints brought by members of the public against Berkeley Police officers.

The Police Accountability Board (PAB) is comprised of nine members. Each member was nominated by the Mayor or a City Councilmember and approved by the full Council. Board members are residents of the City of Berkeley, at least 18 years old, who have pledged to be fair-minded and objective, with a demonstrated commitment to community service.

The Office of the Director of Police Accountability (ODPA) supports the work of the Board. Please visit the ODPA’s webpage for more information on the PAB’s rules and regulations and the filing process for personnel or policy complaints. The meeting recordings for all regular and special meetings can also be found on the Police Accountability Board's YouTube Page.

Meetings

Police Accountability Board meetings are open to the public and everyone is welcome. Meetings will be generally held on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month with a 6:30 pm start time.
