-3- <br />him, I wall be glad to do so. I would say that Hard.man as:Chief and what <br />he has done s o f ar, to my knowledge, has come a long way, so I am for that <br />second chance, so do not sell him_shoit. <br />Kenneth Hi11s I have heard many coimnents of what a good job P!!x°. H.v.rdman <br />a.s doing. have talked with many of my. nea.ghbors, and they appear to <br />wish to keep Mr. Ha.rdman as Chief. He is good to and wa.'th cha.ldren and they <br />seem to like him very mt,ich and the women I talked wx.th wish to have him <br />stay on as Chief, <br />Special Policeman Papj2as I.have worked with Mr. Hardman for.7 months and if <br />Council does not see f it to gige h.a.m a second clzance, they are walcome to <br />his badge and mine too, I am thro"gh. <br />Mrs. Co'Iomans We never had such police. service before he came on the <br />job and now we would like to keep this kind of serviceo <br />ReV. Brovaxt:. I am around the corner 24 hours a day, off and on, and have <br />sean Wardman there.and can vottch for long hours -h.e puts. in. It xs <br />very diffS.cult for sorne people to expera:ence Wl'1Q,t HQWAZ'Cl h&.S been through. <br />Having been through severat major battles myself, I. knovr, and I will pledge <br />myself to help him in evar-y way., I have seen qua.te a few people and think <br />that 1Zr. Hardman wa.ll heve to shotiv them what he can do. ( Rev. Bro-un opened <br />ha.s remark by saying that he did not wish to say anyrhiug that would influence <br />Council. xn any way, but that he was speaking for him.self .and of fering. his <br />help to Hrnrrard. . Mr. Briggs: He made a mistake but should have another chance and it is a <br />good ganbla.tha't he will ma.ke a good Chiefv . , <br />Ma.yor Sivanson: I would like to say a f'ew words. I am supposed to be &r. <br />rdman's boss. .il2r. Harciman always has done a good job,and I had great hopes <br />that through. I+rr. Hardman we would be able to build ixp a good police department. <br />V+Ie cannot expect 1OO?r 1aw enforcement and there wa.ll always be a certain <br />amounz of cra.ticxsin aud I think that during the 6 or 7 months tlzat h.e has <br />boen chief that he has peri'ormod his duty. He has made a mistake and has <br />apologized and has given ha.s word of honor the.t it would not happen again <br />and I have faa.th in him. What he has gone through in the last few days <br />will.ma.ke him a better officer than if he had never had this experience. <br />I think, hotivever, that he ivi11 have to prove himself and will have to get <br />baclti in the esteem of the people of this Village and with al1 our help <br />aud the help of others, he will be able to ],ick this. <br />2 v,rould appeal to Counca.l that they reinstate him. I recoirnnend <br />that he be suspended for two weeks and if ; he is given a, chance to get. back, <br />you tivi11 never regret this. That is my opinion and it vmuld be a good thing <br />for him and a good tha.ng for the community if he gets another chance. <br />Mr. Saziton, Jrs T have gotten to knotiv Hovraxd f'rom woi ka.ng on the corner. <br />T thixk- he is doa.ng a very good job. The children.seem to 1a.ke him ai2d <br />you caxmot expect a man to be two placos at the same time. <br />Ylr. Shortlo% He stole the PQ15.ce Car.
