Rethink East Lyme plan for police station locale

December 12, 2018 11:00 pm • Last Updated: December 13, 2018 4:40 pm

The East Lyme police board needs to consider other options other than moving the police station to the far end of town because it might save some money. But at what expense to public safety? The response times to Flanders and Chesterfield Road areas would probably be a disaster. The idea of merging East Lyme and Old Lyme departments should not be a factor in the location choice.
