The Midville City Council
called a special meeting March
22 to discuss how they wifi fi
nance a new police department.
The special meeting was the
first time recently elected Wal
lace Lemons acted as mayor.
Fully attended by residents,
there was standing room only.
Sgt. Matthew Petrea of the
Burke County Sheriff’s Office
discussed several issues with
the panel.
Topics discussed were the
hours that Midville needs
police coverage, purchasing
police vehicles and salaries the
city can afford to pay a chief
and two police officers.
The panel voted to purchase
two new vehicles initially and
possibly one more in the future.
They also voted to begin the
process of searching for a po
lice chief and to offer a salary
range of $37,000 to $40,000.
They decided to allow the new
chief to handle the hiring of up
to two new police officers.
City Councilwoman Norma
Thorne voted in favor of hiring
a new police chief but opposed
purchasing up to three more
vehicles with tag readers and
up to two new officers.
“Where is the city going to
get the money for this?” she
said.
