As far as money is concerned, I thought this elected single commissioner was replacing a larger (unelected) board ?
And as for zero tolerance, I'd be very wary of that. What does it exactly mean ? The police have to have leeway. Does zero tolerance mean I'll be done for doing 31 in a 30 ? :rolleyes
Usually it means anything other people do....
Moving away from it being a good idea or not, the main thing I don't understand is why run up all the extra expense of having seperate elections for the posts & not just wait until the normal local elections come around in May & combine the police commisioners election with that?
