The Village of West Carthage is currently working with the Village of Carthage to perform a feasibility study of consolidation of the village police departments. The villages are asking for assistance for the STUDY only. The Village of West Carthage will use the results of the study to help us decide if it is in the best interests of our residents to combine police departments.
This is a study only. At this time, we are not merging the police departments.
In order to gauge public reaction to the possibility of a merger, I would encourage you to contact the mayor, one of the trustees or the village clerk's office and give us your opinion and ideas. Emails can be sent to: ctpierce@westelcom.com or you can reach the clerk's office at 493-2552.
Gerald Caldwell, Trustee
