THE BOROUGH OF MEDFORD LAKES TAKES ACTION TO ADVANCE A SHARED SERVICES STUDY OF POLICE SERVICES WITH MEDFORD TOWNSHIP

At its February 25, 2009 meeting, Borough Council approved an application to the Department of Community Affairs for a SHARE grant for a joint study of shared police services with the Township of Medford. Council also approved the issuance of a request for proposals to conduct the shared services study.
Mayor Paul G. Weiss stated, “Council has not completed its evaluation of this critically important issue. We are advancing the analysis of Borough police services through a shared services study with Medford Township. Our expectation is that we will receive useful and timely advice from the experts on how Medford Lakes can deliver police services to its residents in the most cost effective manner, taking into account all tangible and intangible factors.”
