Hi Rachel,
In response to your request for information:
(1) Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, any and all records concerning hearings regarding the dismissal of any police chief conducted pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes, 7-278 since October 1, 1983. The Town of Groton has not had any police chief dismissals since October 1, 1983.
(2) Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, any and all agreements and/or contracts regarding the employment of any police chief since October 1, 1983. I have attached the letters from former police chief Michael Crowley and current police chief Louis J Fusaro. Police Chiefs prior to this do not have letters included in their personnel files. I have also attached the current Terms and Conditions of employment for Non-union employees, as well as the current police union contract.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks,
Kathy
