Commending
Superior Performance |
|
The mission of the Fairfield Police Department is to foster and
work in a true partnership with the community of Fairfield, and
to thereby raise the expected level of public safety for
residents and visitors alike. This mission will be encouraged
and sustained by each officer of the Fairfield Police
Department. |
|
The best way to commend the
actions of a Fairfield Police Department employee is to write a
brief letter describing the incident and the actions you thought
were exceptional. Information such as the date, time and
location will help to identify the employee if you don't know
his or her name. If you choose not to write, you may ask to
speak with the employee's supervisor and make a verbal
commendation. Although our employees don't expect to be thanked
for everything they do, recognition of exceptional service is
always appreciated. This kind of feedback helps us know if we
are doing a good job.

Neighborhood Petition Form |
|
The Town of Fairfield takes its role in traffic
safety very seriously. We appreciate the many complaints, requests, and
suggestions we receive from various sources; because it helps our staff develop
a safer transportation system. Due to limited resources, we cannot always
respond quickly to your concerns or ideas. This does not mean that we do not
value your input or appreciate your concerns. Many traffic and parking
situations take considerable time to study and evaluate possible solutions.
Quick solutions are often less effective in the long run. More appropriate
solutions may cost the taxpayers more money, but we must prioritize the spending
of our budget across the entire town. A potential problem in one part of town
must be weighed against current needs in other areas.
In consideration of the above, we developed this
Neighborhood Petition Form
(NPF) for your use. Through this form, neighbors are encouraged to identify and
discuss issues affecting them. Our goal is to have neighbors reach consensus on
the problem and formulate a possible solution. Once a consensus is reached, it
is required that the NPF be completed and forwarded to the Fairfield Police
Department- Special Services Division.
As a resident of
Fairfield who has identified a potential traffic safety issue, it is important
that you involve your neighborhood in the possible solution. Our intent is to
focus on the most important parking and traffic conditions in town, as
neighborhood consensus is reached. This practice will ensure our best use of
staff time and available resources.
Thank you for your
cooperation and understanding.

In
an effort to provide pertinent response information to the Town
of Fairfield Emergency Services personnel responding to
residences during an incident the attached form was developed.
It is helpful to have any information on those persons -
specifically children - with special needs that will help us
prepare while responding, and may help to calm a situation or
determine additional resources that might be required. This
voluntary program allows us to input the information you provide
into our 911 system and will be available for responders while
on their way to your home. Should you choose to take advantage
of this response ability, you should be aware of the following:
-
The program is completely voluntary, and you
choose the information you wish to provide.
-
Information may be broadcast over radio
channels which may be heard by the general public.
