Hello,
I have received this email.
I have only worked here since 2014 so I may not know all of this information so it may take some digging through files. I will have to work with the Police Chief regarding the hiring and employment data as the Police Department keeps track of their employees separately so that information will be in the Police Department.
Also, I will have to see how far back we have for the budget information but will do my best to get it for you.
When do you need this information by?
Thank you!
