2 firefighters, 1 cop promoted in White Plains; 2 other cops rehired

By Richard Liebson • rliebson@lohud.com • July 12, 2010

White Plains promoted two city firefighters and a police detective today and re-hired two police officers who were among 12 laid off in May because of budget cuts.

Does this mean that there are now two open firefighter positions?

Congratulations to both firefighters.

Hopefully the City will now hire back two laid off firefighters. Commissioner Chong could then welcome the firefighters "back to the family" as he did the police officers.

NO

NO

Were these positions already open before layoffs? If not, does that mean they are down two additional firefighters.

Congratulations to All of the PD/FD members who were promoted and to the 2 cops that were rehired !!! Good Luck in your new assignments !

Let's hope that in the next few months all of our brothers and sisters in the PD/FD that have been laid off around the county will be rehired !!
