Retired Chief now police officer in Bridgewater

Former Chief of Police for the town of Fairfield recently changed his LinkedIn status to police officer in the town of Bridgewater Connecticut.  I message him and he confirmed it.    Bridgewater is a small community of about 1,800 residents according to the  2000 census and is the last dry town in the state.   Bridgewater is served by one resident state police officer and two other town police officers.  David Peck was the chief in Fairfield from

Mural Unveiled In Fairfield While Police Still Wait For a Contract

Editorial- On Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 5 pm, First Selectman Tetreau and the newly formed Fairfield Arts Advisory Committee (FAAC) held a press conference to unveil a mural in the second floor conference room in the John J. Sullivan Independence Hall, 725 Old Post Road.  Yet it’s been over two years since the Fairfield Police Department has had a contract or even a cost of living increase.  Priorities….why is Fairfield so anti-union?  They made the fire department and nurses union wait years for a contract proving their anti-union stand.  The town’s sticking point?  Health insurance.  If there is any town employee that should have stellar health insurance that should be our firefighters and police.  Cut it back?  Let’s start with the town leaders who should lead by example.

This editorial has NOT been approved nor endorsed by Fairfield Police Union.  The Fairfield Police Union have served the public during two hurricanes a blizzard and various other storms in the last two years without a contract.  A couple of weeks ago during a stand off  five brave officers were ordered into a wooded area after a shot was fired.  They did not hesitate to proceed.  They are always there for the town of Fairfield and the surrounding towns.  They were the first on scene in Newtown with trained grief counselor officers that fateful day.  Isn’t it time we are there for the police?
