Rotunda Roundup: Council votes 5-1 to study Splitting Police Fire Ops

Saturday Special from City Hall, Filed 3/16/02, 3:00 PM EST: The Common Council voted 5-1 Friday morning to hire CGR, the Center for Government Research, to conduct a study of the White Plains Department of Public Safety.
The sweeping study will interview police, firemen, managers, city officials, citizens and outside sources to conduct a sweeping analysis of the efficiency, economy and effectiveness of White Plains Police and Fire Department operations and organization according to the proposal.
The study will cost the city $84,000, and will be completed, it is hoped by July.
Councilman William King was the only dissenting vote. Mayor Delfino, who is of the opinion that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," according to a City Hall spokesman, voted for the measure, to assure "that once and for all we can put this question (of Public Safety Department organization) behind us."
In other City Hall Happenings: The Mayor's Office announced it was moving the Human Rights Commission from the Thomas Slater Center to the first floor of the Planning Department annex. The purpose, the Mayor's Office said, was to give the Center back the space it lost when it gave over the second floor of the Slater Center to the Digital Divide Computer Center. Loss of that space, Slater Center said, has cramped their day care and after school programs. The city made the move to correct this situation.
The Planning Department is moving upstairs in the Planning Department annex. Planning Commissioner Susan Habel was moving boxes upstairs herself yesterday.
