A Comment from Bob McWilliams of Eastport

(In response to a previous post about the change in police shifts)

I talked to a police officer today, and he liked the way it changes their shift work. But, he said it wouldn't do anything to help compensate for the lack of police officers.

If Moyer continues to think that we have enough police officers, then why doesn't she just eliminate 24 positions in the next budget. Way back when she was Alderman, she ran on filling the vacant positions (we were only 13 officers short then). Since it's been 12 years or so now (and we're now 24 positions short), it would appear that filling those positions is nothing more than something Moyer promises to get herself elected.
