Cambridge Police Commission Bill Sparks Factional Blame Game
A Cambridge political clash centers on a proposed police commission bill. Senator William J. Rounds pushes Senate Bill 138 copied from Fall River to create a three member board appointed by the Governor with five year terms and hefty salaries. The measure faces opposition from Dallinger Champlin and others over governance, salaries, and the shift of power from mayor and aldermen to a governor appointed panel.
