helicopper: before I stated it I tried to search for it via the search box in the right corner and didn't find anything. as you stated in the "ghost lettering thread" as follows: "This thread seems to have derailed and is now way off-topic. The staff understands how it got to this point but if you want to discuss the use of vehicles for non-official purposes, please start another thread to do that and/or search for prior threads on the same subject. Let's focus on the use of ghost lettering on emergency vehicles for this thread. Thank you." Also too people are more and more interested in how governments Fire, police, and EMS are using there money, because at the end of the day the tax payers in the district/village etc are paying for it. I live in the City of Yonkers and I would hope to think the city is going to do right with my tax money, that's a whole other issue.

thanks helicopper and ace84 for the correction..

his royal bloomturd has gone crazy, how about use the money to bring back the 5th man and not layoff cops and teachers, just a thought.... Put that money where it counts, I thank god I left working for NYC.

With the new town of Ossining becoming WCPD a few questions for the cops out there: 1. Does the Town PD time count when they became a WCPD officer? 2. Do they patrol there normal sector, or can they be moved all over the county? Thanks for the info Chris

They all should still be voted out..

Happy turkey day to you and yours, and for everyone working (including yours truly) be safe out there......... Chris

I thought I heard on the news that the fire department union did some agreement with the city and there would be no layoffs. The police department is another story all together. IMO people love the fire departments in the country and not the Police until you need them. chris

With the Fire Brigade it all depends on when the Incident occurs. We have fire brigade members staffed during the week 24 hours, and on the weekends sometimes yes and no. All of the Brigade members are craft/ union guys with Metro north. They also do EMS, fire drills, inspections etc. There is a full time Fire chief and now an assistant Fire chief. They are dispatched by the fire command center located in the terminal. If you have a more questions PM me Chris Control Center Coordinator FCC

I have Verizon FIOS its a little bit more money but there is no fighting over loosing channels. I really love FIOS and my internet is faster 25/25 upload/download. Also there is a battery backup so if the power goes out I can still use my phone for up to 8 hours. Although I am in a contract for 3 years I know that every month I pay the same amount. Sorry for the plug for Verizon.

I don't know if anyone beat me to the punch but S.C.P.D. is Having there Police Officer Test here is the info: Last date to file: March 31st 2011 Written Test: June 11th 2011 Salary: starting 42,000 (salary at step 5) 108,000 The exam fee is $100.00 here is the link: http://www.co.suffolk.ny.us/civilservice/5002ann.html Good luck Chris

I have FIOS in my apartment and I pay around 137 a month. triple play along with a DVR HD box and taxes etc. I love it. The cable guy came a few times and wanted me to switch to cable but told him to take a walk.

as the article stated with some of the comments that the gangs and crime is pretty bad in that area, is the city going to combat the gangs and stuff. because you can build all these nice things, but you can't leave your apartment because you don't feel safe..........

This may be a dumb question but whi is the starting Salary is pretty low for being in "westchester county" and with the way cost of living is for up here...

with how dumb people are today and don't take responsibility for there own actions, "the next of Kin" would more then likely try and sue the department and blame the chauffeur. ugggg

thats great news

hey Izzy, You forgot to add tippy tom aka "golden bun's" to the list Chris

Hey all, I am currently seaching to buy a Co-op and or condo and There are a few places in Yonkers that seem nice. It would be nice to be near one of the railroad stations either hudson or harlem line. What areas are Good and what areas are "bad" in Yonkers. (I have heard that Yonkers with a Bronxville PO is very nice). Any Information would be greatly appreated Thanks and be safe Chris

Thanks guys for the infromation I will have to do my research Chris

With the SCPD out of the Island Its my understanding that the villages in there charter had to obsolve there local police department and then the county would take over the police services.
