Marlene Smetana, Police, 10/26/11 "I am nervous about Deer Park dropping its police coverage with Kildeer and going with Lake County, because I had a problem with the Lake County Sheriff's Department about seven years ago." Read more.
Maureen Pratscher, Police, 10/24/11 "I am here tonight to express my concern about the votes regarding police service that are on the agenda tonight. I have some concerns about the actual agreement with Lake County, but my bigger concern is the lack of openness and transparency throughout the whole process." Read more.
Deborah Barry, Police, 10/22/11 "As a Deer Park resident, local business owner and community activist (Deer Park Neighbors), I’ll get straight to the point. The termination of the Kildeer Police contract by the Village of Deer Park is wrong, on its face and fundamentally." Read more.
Roger Hankin, Police, 10/21/11 "There is no greater responsibility for any elected official at any level than “to provide for the common defense” of all constituents. Police service has consistently been the dominant Village expense, roughly equating to sales tax revenues and crowding out infrastructure repair and other desired investments." Read more.
