Annual Report 2009  

    

ANNUAL REPORT 2009

 This year we continued to actively look and apply for Federal grants to bring money back to your Town.  We were very fortunate and were able to secure over $10,000 in grant money to assist our efforts in several different types of patrol activity.  Two such grants focus on motor vehicle activity to decrease speeding vehicles on our roads and to apprehend impaired drivers.  In a third grant we were able to combine forces with Newmarket and the Epping Police Departments to focus on the decrease in the sale of alcohol to minors in these three towns. 

 I would like to thank the employees of the police department for all of their hard work and dedication to the department and to the Town. Because of the appreciation the residents have given us for our efforts we are able to remain loyal and committed to the Town of Newfields. 

 The department has again logged an immeasurable amount of hours in community service through a variety of events, including the D.A.R.E. program, holiday food baskets, toys and clothing drive for children.  We also had our 4th annual roadside trash clean up on all of Route 87, Route 85, and Oaklands Road in an attempt to maintain the beauty of our town. I would like to thank The Community Church, the Christian Faith Church and the many private citizens for their role in the annual food basket and Christmas toy/clothes drive. I would especially like to thank Lt. Anne Gould, Administrative Assistant Maureen Smith and Clara Camuso-Reed for cooking the hot meals, which were delivered during the holidays. I truly appreciate all those who helped. Your thoughtfulness and hard work was noticed by many.

 The department continues to offer the Helpful Hands Program for any resident who feels they could utilize extra assistance during a declared emergency event or when assistance is requested. Currently we have over twenty residents who participate in the program. If you are interested in the program you can find more information on the department website. We used the program last year during the ice storm/power outage and found it worked very well.

 We have continued the D.A.R.E. program in the 5th grade at the Newfields Elementary School. It is a long established program that has been offered at the school for about a decade.  We feel it is a worthwhile investment in the children. Again this year, Officer Tanya Lampi taught the program at the school.  The program was well received by the children, parents and the school staff.

 Once again, I have included an analysis of the types of crimes, reports and arrests we deal with on a yearly basis. If you have any questions or concerns about the analysis please feel free to stop by and see me or call.
