Record Talk Radio: consolidating Bergen County law enforcement

Efforts to consolidate Bergen County law enforcement will be our topic on the next broadcast of Record Talk Radio at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 4 when our guests will be Freeholder Tracy Zur and my Record colleague Jean Rimbach.

Zur, the chair of a shared services committee, will talk about how this year's election has affected the board's plan to combine the County Police into the Sheriff's Office.

County Executive-elect and Democratic Freeholder James Tedesco has declared that police consolidation will be one of his top priorities during the first 100 days of his administration, which begins Jan. 1

Rimbach, who covers county law enforcement, will talk about the impact of County Police Chief Brian Higgins' decision to retire at the end of this year. 

We'll also discuss Sheriff Michael Saudino's decision to abandon his request for a mine-resistant military surplus vehicle.
