AS A WIFE OF ONE OF THE CHESTER POLICE OFFICERS WITH THREE CHILDREN....WE BARELY MAKE ENDS MEET. AS THE TOWN REJECTED THE PAY INCREASE FOR THE OFFICERS THIS MEANS WHAT WAS PROMISED TO A CERTIFIED OFFICER IS NO MORE. THIS IS MAKING THE OFFICERS RECONSIDER EMPLOYMENT ELSEWHERE. DID YOU KNOW CHESTER IS ONE OF THE UNDERPAID POLICE DEPARTMENTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE? YOU MIGHT NOT THINK OF CHESTER AS A BUSY TOWN...BUT WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS THESE OFFICERS GOT A NUMBER OF DWI'S OFF THE STREET. MAYBE IF WE CAN PUT THE TOWN OF CHESTER ON THE SPOT THEY'LL RECONSIDER THE PAY INCREASE. AS PRICES GO UP ON EVERYTHING THIS CAUSES A HARDSHIP FOR THE FAMILIES.
