Representatives of the Philadelphia Gay and Lesbian Task Force met for more than an hour yesterday afternoon with Police Commissioner Willie L. Williams and other high-ranking law enforcement officials to ask for a formal policy for dealing with offenses committed against members of the gay community.
Rita Addessa, executive director of the task force, called the meeting ''very positive," although she said her group's objectives had not been immediately met.
She said Williams pledged to take the task force's recommendations under advisement and to inform the group within six weeks of what steps the Police Department might take in devising such a policy.
