Frankford Police Chief Laurence Corrigan told the Town Council at its Monday, Feb. 1 meeting that he has completed the process of having the department certified by the U.S. Department of Justice. This will allow the police department to apply for federal funds, he said.
âWe reached this level through a lot of hard work,â Corrigan said. âThis is the beginning of a new day for the Frankford Police Department,â he said.
The certification is active for three years from Jan. 25, which is when he received the notification, Corrigan said.
He also told the council that the department is âon the waiting listâ with the state budget office for a four-wheel drive vehicle. âObviously, thatâs a high need,â he said.
