Watervliet police contract hailed for honorable terms
Watervliet Police Dept and city officials won praise from the Law Enforcement Officers Society of New York State for a new contract that minimizes city cost. Officers receive a 1.68 per thousand tax hike, a 1450-dollar annual raise, starting pay at 6000 increasing to 6900 with experience, and 8048 for the police chief. Society president Michael F. Robich lauded the settlement and promised support from the force. In Albany, seven girls and five boys plan a Thanksgiving week fast to highlight hungry children, living in a church and eschewing food while asking Congress to act. About 100 additional SOS members circulate a petition.
