Sergeant Bullock stated that there would be an increase in the number of tickets in the town that were written and that would more than pay for the cost of the patrols. Effectiveness would be measured by the number of tickets written and the revenue coming in. Money from the fines goes to the town and/or state – no additional money would be given to the Village of Galway Police Department.  Patrols: Random weekly patrol – no schedule, all depends on the availability of the
officers – benefits of the patrols would be crime prevention & vehicle infractions – support other law enforcement agencies, not take over  Vehcile: The car could be labeled Town of Providence or they would use the Village of
