This is sad to me. I have enjoyed LM for many years (as a property
owner) and have enjoyed the peace and serenity of a weekday
cruise when not many boats are out. Now I wonder how many times
I will be stopped since there will be 5 officers and me. How
relaxing will it be on the weekend to see blue lights flashing
everywhere you go. From the posts last summer, will we not be too
concerned about being stopped for things such as a person sitting
in front of you on your pontoon boat and the lack of action from
the MP about important issues as you all have mentioned. I witnessed a boat collision in front of my house at 9:00 PM but
the MP would not respond because there were no serious injuries
but was alcohol involved?
In this time of troubled economy and budget shortfall, should we
add more expense or should we expect better service and concentrate on the important problems. Will there be pressure
to issue tickets for minor offenses to justify their existence?
Just a few thoughts
