Regardless of your opinion of the Randolph Police Department, I encourage you to participate in the police services advisory committee meetings being held. The next one is this Tuesday, 10/27 at 5:30 PM at the Town office and also online. I think this meeting will be particularly interesting because Chief Clouatre is going to be presenting data (I'm inferring this from the discussion at the September PSA meeting) and other information about the services they provide. Presumably this might explain what those of us in the police district are getting for our taxes that went up 32% this year to pay the majority of the nearly $1 Million overall Police Department budget. The agenda, as posted on the town website under "Police Services Advisory Committee" is: *This will be a hybrid meeting.
