Seven Fields seeks partners for ‘new shared police force’
Seven Fields is seeking “potential partnerships for a new shared police force,” according to a statement released by borough council.
“It appears there’s a different model that’s going to be needed,” borough manager Tom Smith said Wednesday, March 29. “So, everything’s on the table, to be quite frank.”
Smith said the borough has sent a “scope of services” document to six nearby municipalities to explore these potential partnerships.
One full-time and two full-time officers resigned from the Evans City-Seven Fields Regional Police Department earlier this month, citing conflict in the organization and job security as their main concerns.
