The City Council has appointed four new members to the Community Gang Task Force.
The selection comes after more than a month of screening potential members.
The Simi Valley council Monday appointed Janie Noppe, a senior executive at the Boy Scouts of America, to serve on the task force as a representative from area youth organizations.
Kurt Fredrickson, a pastor at Simi Covenant Church, was appointed to serve as a representative from the area’s religious community.
Royal High School’s campus supervisor Leonard Duran and Maureen Solheim, an administrative assistant at Moorpark College, will serve as representatives from the community at large.
The new members will serve a two-year term on the task force, which includes representatives from the Police Department and city, and will work to devise strategies on how best to address the gang problem.
