Let the Layoffs begin!!!

I heard the chief was going to start laying off and firing anyone from major to lt beginning this month because he has to have his budget arranged by May 1st....bye bye tokejer, lewis!!! this is the truth just read his E-mail it says it all right there!!

Whoever posted that is 100% correct! It was discussed in staff meeting today and it came directly from the Mayor's Office. It was ordered by Callahan to commence asap. Oh boy is it going to get interesting.

I heard that it will only be the Chief, Major, Captain, 2 LTs, and Sgts running the show...it should be very interesting!!

Hey DA guess you should have taken that demotion after all :lol:

Who will be the ones getting the boot out the door? Any thoughts?

I heard that it will only be the Chief, Major, Captain, 2 LTs, and Sgts running the show...it should be very interesting!!

yes, should be much smoother! this department has had too many superviors for years!!!

KARMA... 'ANT IT A BIT@H!?!

The other ones that need to worry that ar on probation as Sgts., because they will get demoted to make room for the admin he wants to keep...but they will still have a job :shock:

As the Chief said in his email he will keep us informed with factual information-- these posts are just the rumor mill.

Maybe city hall needs to clean up their side of the house! There are departments over there that didn't even exist 4 years ago, that now have 8 employees in them! Do we really need them? Do they give any support to the police department?
And maybe they should look at their own "take home car list." Why should the citizens of Bradenton pay for these people to have take home cars. Why should the Risk Safety Person have a take home car? Does she get called out after hours, if so, when was the last time? And how about the citizen's of Bradenton paying department heads a $120,000 a year salary, then also giving them another $500 a month for a car allowance!! These should be the first people that should be giving these perks up! If city council is looking to "control spending" and cut costs, they need to look in there own yard first! Then how about the fire department.......How many miles was on the Fire Chief's car when it was replaced. Then how much did the city pay to have "new carpet" installed in it. Come on people, it's time to stop looking at "public Safety" Crime is down for a reason and it was not because of CITY HALL!!!!!
