[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1163754, member: 13519"] That's not what that article says at all. They were not "forbidden from writing traffic tickets." The police force was disbanded because it was bankrupt. The 76% budget number was the amount of the city's budget the department was using. None of that means no one us writing get citations there. It is very common for small towns to not have a police force and defer all enforcement to the County Sheriff or State Police. The small town I grew up in has done that three or four times. They currently have a police department consisting of mostly retired guys, or local boys who couldn't really get hired anywhere else. That's what bit the town referenced in your story. Somebody's buddy, cousin, or whatever was hired as chief and should never been allowed to work there. End of story. [/QUOTE]
