Three Fairland police officers, including the third police chief in eighteen months, resigned last week from the city of Fairland.

 

Interim Police Chief Ron Shirley, and officers Michael Fromeyer and Cheyenne Howard resigned because of problems they say is with the current Board of Trustees and its lack of support for the police department.

 

Shirley says he has serious concerns with ethics, procedure protocols, and questionable treatment of current law enforcement officers, adding that the lack of support from the Board of Trustees is shown by not providing insurance, or not providing vacation, and not providing a retirement option. There is also no benefits for an officer’s family should an officer become ill or die in the line of duty.

 

The resignations will take effect on February 24th.
