Duties

The Iowa City Community Police Review Board (hereafter referred to as the CPRB) was established to provide a complaint process into claims of Iowa City police misconduct and assure that investigations are conducted in a manner which is fair, thorough and accurate; and to assist the Police Chief, the City Manager and the City Council in evaluating the overall performance of the Police Department by having it review the Police Department's investigation into complaints. A "complaint to the board" is an allegation of misconduct lodged against a sworn police officer ("police officer" or "officer") employed by the Iowa City police department, where the complained of activity occurred while the officer was acting in the capacity of a sworn police officer.

In addition, the CPRB reviews police policies, procedures, and practices, and may recommend modifications to them.
