To: Hon. Frederick G. Marcham, Mayor
Members of the Board of Trustees
Village of Cayuga Heights
Subject: Activities of the Police Department for month of March 1969
Gentlemen:
The Department handled 47 complaints and investigated 2 motor
vehicle accidents during the month. There were 79 traffic summonses
and 9 parking tickets issued.
During March we received numerous complaints concerning solicitors
in the Village. I would like to discuss the problem with the Board and
make some recommendations for possible action.
• In regards to the Curfew Ordinance, we have handled 2 cases
involving 6 juveniles since the Ordinance became effective January lat.
A copy of the Ordinance and letters were sent to the parents of the
juveniles advising them of the violation. We have had no further problem
with these juveniles as of this time.
A recommendation for action by the Board will be made concerning
the new police car bids received on March 31st.
Approval is requested for payment of the annual dues for the
Police Chief to the International Association of Chiefs of Police in
the amount of $25.00.
Sergeant McEwen and Patrolman Darling attended a seminar on March
25th and 26th at Binghamton concerning the problem of Alcohol, Drugs,
and Driving. It was recommended at the seminar that officers be trained
in the operation of the breathalizer, a device used to conduct chemical
tests for intoxication. Arrangements are being made for our officers
to receive this training in the near future.
Respectfully Bubmiittted,
"W, / & A.
Sack W. McGraw, Sr.
