STROUDSBURG, MONROE COUNTY-
The first officer will be laid off December 31st.
The next will be January 31st.
This action will enable the department to apply for a grant.
"There is some bad news in that we had to take action," said Stroud Regional Police Chief John Baujan, "The good news is that it preserves the right for us to apply for a grant through the PCCD. Its federal money funneled through state and earmarked for departments to bring back officers that are facing layoffs or have been laid off."
If the grant is approved the officers could be re-hired in April. | |
