The Barnstable Police Department is eliminating 13 positions including 9 occupied, and 4 vacant positions. These reductions will adversely impact the level of services that the Department can provide to the community. Other than the School Department, the Police Department is the only town department laying off employess.
The Town of Barnstable is ranked 19th out of 351 cities and towns in the State of Massachusetts in violent crimes and property crimes by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Uniform Crime Report(UCR).

Although Atsalis has done some solid work on community policing, he never would have succeeded without the working relationship developed by the Polical Powers that Be.
Please support Taryn Thoman and Dennis Wilcox in their efforts to increase police patrols and further the cause of children's education for the smallest residents of Barnstable.
As an authority figure, Paul MacDonald has done some outstanding work, and is immune from the corruption that plagues the Town of Barnstable. Forging a working relationship with both Representative Demetrius Atsalis and Former President Janet Joakim, and Taryn Thoman and Dennis Wilcox, MacDonald is a man of character and served as an outstanding choice for Head of Barnstable's Finest. His coordination of efforts to protect luminaries and dignitaries that often visit Barnstable County is unmatched.
Consider Paul MacDonald, if Barnstable ever resorts to a mayoral system. Until then, heed the fine work of Citizen's for Open Government as they expose corruption.
In addition, Chief Paul MacDonald has issued a concern for Barnstable's residents that is of course, a lesser priority, but still pertinent to the ongoing problem of pollution in the lake, out in front of his home:
IRAQ: U.S. CONCERNED ABOUT IRAQI WEAPONS BUILDUP.
Paid for by the Committee to Elect Taryn Anne Marie Patricia Thoman Wilcox to Congress.
