<DIV>A camera under the bridge is a great idea. Even a web cam which plays
in the PD. That would be the best thing. Doesn't take our
officers off the street but allows them to see what's going on. If they
don't have the funds for this, I suggest we, the townspeople, have a fundraiser
and support this wonderful idea.</DIV>
