Summary of Salt Lake City’s Police Civilian Review Board Ordinance

The newly-strengthened Police Civilian Review Board Ordinance has the following provisions.

  • A full-time Investigator reports to the Board.

  • All complaints of excessive force will automatically be referred from the Internal Affairs Unit in the Police Department to the Police Civilian Review Board for review and investigation.

  • Persons may request an investigation of complaints not involving excessive force by submitting a request to the Police Civilian Review Board. Such a request must be filed within four business days of filing a complaint with Internal Affairs.

  • Complaints must first be filed with the Internal Affairs Unit at the Police Department before the Police Civilian Review Board has jurisdiction.  The phone number for Internal Affairs is 799-3351.

  • The Board may audit and/or investigate cases other than excessive force at the Board’s discretion.

  • The Board will make a recommendation, based on its independent investigation, to the Police Chief.

  • The Police Civilian Review Board is advisory to the Police Chief.  The Police Chief retains all authority regarding disciplinary action and/or training.
