I do hereby verify the above information is true and correct. As an applicant for the Seattle Police Department Community Policing Action Council, I hereby authorize the Seattle Police Department to conduct a criminal history background investigation, including convictions, pending charges and outstanding warrants. I understand that this criminal history check is being conducted due to the nature of the council member role. I understand that all available police and criminal records will be checked and that the information will be used in determining eligibility of applicants for the Community Policing Action Council. Having a criminal history does not necessarily disqualify participation with the Council.
All information is to remain confidential as required by Washington and federal statutes.
In our effort to better serve and represent the community, the Community Policing Action Council is interested in knowing as much as possible about our applicant pool. This information is strictly voluntary on your part. The information gathered here will be held anonymously by the review committee and will be used only for the purpose of estimating the representativeness of the council composition under consideration.
