Greeley to get more cops

After reducing funding for many area agencies and charities in the 2008 budget early in the year, Greeley may again cut their funding to pay for the five additional police Greeley City Council has said the city needs to address public safety concerns. The council will vote on the proposal in early February.

Looks like our new mayor is keeping his promise. Now if we could just get some assurances that these police officers will be used to stop gang activity and violent crime, rather than giving out ‘failure to use turn signal’ tickets.
