They are attended by the precinct commander or executive officer and far more tolerable than community board meetings. Plus, the cops actually tend to follow-up on reasonable complaints. Call your pct or look online at http://www.nyc.gov/html/nypd/html/home/precincts.shtml and look-up your pct and the meeting time/location will be posted.

It should be an established policy. Stop fucking pedestrians. Motorists are not more important.

He said he would look into it and the next night they were gone. Make the call!
