The above was a blurb copied from Moultnborough Speaks ( blog). I have interacted with him. He has certainly toned down the focus on speed enforcement and getting the officers out in the neighborhoods.
It does bother me that a police chief, or any civil servant for that matter, can retire so young with full benefits and then immediately take on another police job. This shouldn't be allowed. If you retire from one police chief job and start collecting benefits you should not be able to jump to another municipality.
