On 3/1 Officers Pietrantoni, Sarratori and Sime will graduate from the GCC Rural Police Academy. As per prior understanding, it is now time to hire them as Part Time Police Officers since this was pending their successful graduation. They paid their own way through the Academy Part I, were paid minimum wage of $7.25/hour as recruits with Brockport. This has been a tremendous savings to the Village. Now they will be paid $20/hour as part time officers in accordance with the Stetson Club contract.
Clerk Morelli concurred.
Chief Varrenti said in his 33 years in law enforcement, these are 3 of the best. Many in the department plan to attend their graduation ceremony.
He said overtime hours have gone down now that there is a good pool of part time officers.
He said the State requires a certain number of FTO hours, but the County requires more. This extended training accounts for some exceptional officers in Monroe County. Therefore, they will still be riding with a full time officer to complete their FTO hours.
Trustee Blair moved, Trustee Hannan seconded, carried 4/0 to authorize the hiring of Recruits Pietrantoni, Sarratori and Sime as Part Time Police Officers upon successful graduation of the Police Academy 3/1.
