In Your Opinion: Public Safety Director Is Best For Franklin And Police Department

By Arnold W. Schmidt.

I read with interest that our former Mayor and now Freeholder Brian Levine and other Republicans running for office in Franklin Township are trying to use our current Police Department situation as a politically divisive wedge issue. So far as we know, this problem has been going on for at least three years but possibly further back when Mr. Levine was Mayor.

He tries to obfuscate this by extolling his leadership while questioning the professionalism of our Police Department. He further states that the proposed changes will cost the Township more money and deliver less service. As a CPA professional, he should know better than to make unfounded statements like this. While Mayor maybe he should have implemented safeguards against the possibility of the abuse of union time.
