I just wish to express my extreme satisfaction regarding this letter to the editor (Penticton Western News, March 16, Alternative method of policing needed) about exploring a district municipal police force.
The writer, Mr. Rick Knodel, has done a great deal of research into this matter and he is absolutely correct. Our communities should band together for “town policing” to make it more cost efficient and in turn more effective. This is a well worthwhile proposal and kudos to Mr. Knodel of Oliver.
