Rotterdam town officials spar over police audit | The Daily Gazette
SECTIONS
Two Rotterdam town board members got into a heated discussion about a $25,000 audit on the Rotterdam Town Police Department following a brief presentation by members of the law firm that conducted the audit and during questions raised by the police chief.
“Forgive my passion,” said Town Supervisor Steven Tommasone after closing the public comment portion of the meeting. “I’m over the misinformation campaign.”
Chief G. William Manikas was in the middle of asking questions to the town supervisor, to which board member Joseph Guidarelli was agreeing with, when Tommasone became frustrated with both the chief and Guidarelli—telling them they were being inappropriate during the meeting.
