The Office of the Citizens' Advocate in Lexington, KY was established to serve as an independent agent within the government, investigating complaints and disclosing any irregularities or abuses on the part of the LFUCG. They also recommend policy changes to improve citizen access to government departments and provide information and referrals to callers.
In response to recommendations from the Mayor's 2020 Commission for Racial Justice Equality, the Citizens' Advocate has been tasked with assisting individuals in filing complaints with the Lexington Police Department, explaining the complaint process, and updating individuals about the status of their complaints. However, they are not authorized to investigate complaints against the LPD or be involved in their disciplinary process.
