If this wasn't a repeat of past City Council interference/micromanaging of police department issues then it would be a story.

The voters keep electing these "individuals" to represent them and that is the bad part of the political process. Imbeciles being elected who may stat out okay but become emboldened personal ambition and become power hungry.

Any time a politician tries to micromanage a department like the police department only bad things happen.

Not one politician in this city can be trusted to do anything but feather their own nest, take for themselves and try to lord over others with a little of information in their pea brains.

November is coming and everyone should be given the axe.

Any city council person whonhas no clue as to what plice work entails. So we should continue to drive cars not designed for police driving, which is substanially different than what the councilman does. The majority of these vehicles are for patrol supervisors. The current expiditions are wearing out at very low mileage becuase they were were not designed for police driving. The council man should try spending a week with a patrolman to see what really goes on, not just a side show ride along once in his life. Try doing the job on a busy weekend B/C squad. Another idiot with no clue trying to ruin this department.

The question is what HATRED does Kennedy have with the Police. Instead of being part of the solution, he is catering to the nonsense.
Let the professionals and the staff that spent months researching the most useful tool do there jobs. Does Kennedy know anything about PPV? I think not. The pride of the city is seen when officers are conducting daily activity in a very sharp and impressive police vehicle.
Just so Mr.Kennedy knows, numerous friends who are cops and civilians have spoken great things about the city purchases of vehicles. They say they are outstanding and more visible. Ask the patrol officers in Hartford if they are happy to have new vehicles, I bet they say Yes. So let the cops control there own destiny of what they purchase for the department. He has no idea how many cities/towns across the state went out and bought Tauruses and Chargers and are now complaining what garbage they are. At least the staff looked into every vehicle possible and compared the pro and cons.. At least the men and women of the PD are getting reliable safe vehicles to utilize.
As for your whole thing about cops doing comp time..give it rest... Who are you to want justification for when cops work comp. the proof is the extra officers on the street working the corners.
How bout one day taking a ride after 4pm in the city's north end . Take a ride to shooting scene...how bout instead of quarterbacking from your desk, take a walk down Albany avenue, garden street , Bedford , Mather, ..how bout just taking pride in the fact that the cops in Hartford are doing there job. Help improve the department, not try to be the big cheese. If you want control of the department then take the test and work your way up the ranks.. Other than that let the cops be, it is tough enough already dealing with the unsavory characters that roam the city the streets.
