Livescan Fingerprint Update

Updated 12.28.09 6:10pm: 
My friend Dotster has prematurely credited me with saving the village $15,000.  I was just talking with Trustee Roy, informing her of the information that I  presented to all of you earlier today.  According to Roy, it is to late!  The COP could not wait and had to order his scanner and his new laptop and his new software the day after the money was approved by the VB.  Wellllllllll....I am so friggin happy that he got what he wanted for Christmas. A $15,000 pile of useless $hit [sorry doc].  Nice job VB......BTW.....any one of you could have made the phone call to the Sheriff that I made today.......and you could have gotten the info first hand.......but OHHHHHH NOOOooo you are way to smart for that.......................You Are All Dumb asses {political suicide, like I could give a $hit}  Oh and for the record.......I think the Chief intentionally left that information out that the Sheriffs Department requested......can not play well with others......!




I just got off the phone with Jefferson County Sheriff Burns.  He informed me that his department applied for and was awarded another grant for the new Livescan fingerprinting system that is now mandated by the state of NY.  Sheriff Burns told me that this grant will be used to place the Livescan at the Clayton Police Department.  Clayton was chosen because of it's location and hours of operation.

According to Sheriff Burns, a letter was mailed out 3 weeks ago to every Police agency in Jefferson County.  The letter requested that each agency submit the names of its officers, their O.R.I. [Originating Agency Identifier, Alex Bay O.R.I. is NY02221].  This info was needed so that user names and passwords could be set up so that Police agencies  can use the U.C.R. [Uniform Crime Reporting system].  He went on to say that the Alex Bay PD did reply to this letter but left out most of the information.  His office is sending out another letter requesting that the Bay PD furnish all info.  The new Livescan system in Clayton will be available for all agencies to use [no fees] no later than May or June 2010.  He also said that the January 1st deadline has been extended and there is no need for the Alex Bay PD to pursue the purchase of the Livescan system that the VB approved at the 12.22.09 meeting.

Now the question is.....Will the Bay PD still go ahead with the $15,000 purchase, even tho it is not needed nor would it probably work......

Could that $15,000 that the VB so eagerly approved be used elsewhere?  Like new LED signs?

I thought the Mayor's last two campaign slogans were "We need more Police Department oversight by the Village Board"?
What happened?
By the way, as a frequent Ebay shopper, I never buy anything over a hundred dollars without eyeballing it in person....call me old fashioned.

When will all this needless spending stop? The village taxpayers never had the opportunity to vote on all this excessive police equipment items. The VB members who voted to approve these expenses should have to pay out of their own pockets for theses excesses. Soon the State Police will be coming to the village for assistance.

We honestly need this thing? Wow....people are stupid. Our little town needed to spend $15,000 on this just so someone had some gloating rights I think. What a JOKE

Thanks again VB and almighty ROB.

Everyone in town knows that the vb or chief did not purchase any of the finger print equipment and they are still investigating the situation. So why do u continue to lie to everyone?
The truth is proving to all of us what you are really all about.
