The Town Administrator is soliciting letters of interest to serve on the Police Staffing Study Advisory Committee from May 2024 to May 2025. The town has hired Municipal Resources, Inc. to conduct an assessment and written report on the staffing requirements that will enhance the safety of the South Hadley community and the efficiency of the South Hadley Police Department. The committee will provide input into the process and draft of the study. There will be a minimum 3-5 meetings over the course of the term, and depend on committee member availability and the need. There will be a public forum held prior to January 2025, the date that MRI will be finalizing a report. There will also be committee input into the Fiscal Year 2026 budget process in early 2025. The committee members will work with the Town Administrator, Police Chief and the consultant for the Police Staffing Study. Interested individuals should send a letter of interest with contact information to the Town Administration at Selectboard@southhadleyma.gov by May 1, 2024.
