The Town Manager is authorized to establish
rules and regulations concerning access to and examination of records
in the files of the Police Department concerning investigation of
accidents in the Town and to establish fees for furnishing plain and
certified copies of said records in accordance with a schedule of
fees to be approved by the Town Council by resolution, which schedule
may be amended from time to time by resolution of the Council.
Whenever the services of any member or members
of the Police Department may be required by persons other than the
Town, the Director of the Department may, if in the Director's judgment
the interests of the Town will not suffer thereby, assign such member
or members of the Department as the Director shall judge expedient
and shall charge such persons for the services so rendered such sums
as may be established by a rate to be fixed by the Director but not
less than $2.50 per hour for each member so employed, plus necessary
expenses.
A record shall be maintained of all services performed in accordance with §
12-10.
No member of the Police Department shall perform any services as described in §
12-10, except by order of the Director. Any member who shall demand, accept or receive, directly or indirectly, any money, presents or valuable articles for services so rendered, or to be rendered, except the legal charges as fixed by the Director, or who shall neglect for more than 24 hours after the performance of such services to report the same, in writing, to the Director, together with his or her legal charges and expenses, or who shall neglect for more than 24 hours after receiving such payments to pay over the full amount so received to the Director, shall be dismissed from the Department.
