The Jenkintown Borough Council and Mayor Gabe Lerman felt it was necessary to release the Smeal Report completed in 2020 regarding the Jenkintown Borough Police Department with very limited redactions. The redactions that are part of this release are specific to the security of the Police Department facility and specific
investigative operational information. All recommendations for improving the operations and performance of the Police Department are visible for the public to review. We understand the concerns raised to why this was not published in this manner originally. We felt it was necessary to correct that decision and be
completely transparent regarding the issues and concerns that are affecting possible decisions regarding police service in the Borough.
