The summit will work on actions to reduce auto thefts and carjackings.
“As a board, we have been advocating for increased action to address car thefts and carjackings,” said Chatha.
“Having been recently re-elected Chair of the Board, I want to ensure our community knows this issue is our top priority. We will continue to work with our partners as this problem transcends borders and requires a multi-jurisdictional solution.”
