Chandler Police Assistance Board

  Here is another article I saw in the Nov 5 tp 18, 2011 issue of the San Tan Sun News on page 4 looking for volunteers for the CPAB, which is the Chandler Police Assistance Board, which is a private non-profit entity, which is NOT a part of the government.  
CPAB, which is the Chandler Police Assistance Board article in Nov 5 tp 18, 2011 issue San Tan Sun News

  I saw this article in the October 15 thru November 4, 2011 issue of the San Tan Sun News on page 8. It reads:
Police group needs volunteers

When misfortune strikes a Chandler police officer or other department employee, it is often the public that offers help through the Chandler Police Assistance Board (CPAB).

A nonprofile, CPAB seeks new members and host its next meeting at 6:30 p.m., Tue, Nov. 1, at the Chandler Police Substation, 4040 E Chandler Heights Rd. in Chandler.

The organization is comprised of local citizens dedicated to honoring and supporting the city's police officers, department employees and their families in the event of illness, injury or death. For information, visit www.cpab.org. [ At the time I create this web page the www.cpab.org url was not working. ]

I suspect what the folks at the CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board are doing is illegal. Mainly because they are using the resources of the city of Chandler or the resources of the Chandler Police Department for private purposes.

And according to this article the CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board is a PRIVATE entity, not a government entity. But despite being a PRIVATE ENTITY, they are being allowed to use the Chandler Police station to hold their meetings and use it for a mailing address.

After I tried to visit their web site which is

www.cpab.org.
and doesn't work at this time. I googled on CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board and found out that they indeed are a PRIVATE entity, not a government entity with the Arizona Corporation Commission.

The records for the Arizona Corporation Commission say these folks are the people who are doing this:

Is the CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board a private entity or a government entity. I suspect they want it both ways. Probably so they can do things that government entities and police departments can do. And at the same time say they are a private entity that doesn't have to obey the laws which government entities are required to obey, such as public record laws.

According to this information on the Chandler Police Web site the CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board seems to be an arm of the Chandler Police Department in addtion to being a private entity.

It appears that KATHLEEN SMART who is the Statutary Agent of the CPAB or Chandler Police Assistance Board is also a member of the Chandler Police Department according to this web page at the city of Chandler.

I would like to reserve one of the meeting rooms at the

Chandler Police Substation
4040 E Chandler Heights Rd.
Chandler, AZ
Can you tell me how much the meeting rooms cost to rent? The hours the meeting rooms are available for the public to rent? And the requirements to rent one of the meeting rooms for an hour or two?

The meeting will be held by a group of private citizens, but the meeting will be open to the public to anyone that wants to attend.

Our group is not a government group, but we would like to rent one of the meeting rooms because the location is a great place for our meetings.

This is a request for public records per the Arizona Public Records laws which is Arizona Public Record Laws - A.R.S 39-121.

Thanks
