Various public safety concerns were a main topic of discussion Jan. 18 when Warwick Township supervisors held their evening meeting.
Supervisors were updated on the progress being made by the recently formed Northern Lancaster County Regional Police Department, or NLCRPD. In a report submitted to the supervisors, Chief David Steffen noted that so far the transition into a regional force has been smooth sailing. Currently, the force is working through various transitional pieces, including standardizing health insurance and further development of standardized administrative functions. Previously, Steffen has explained that one goal of this phase of the new department is to use this standardization to help improve efficiency and reduce duplication of efforts.
Supervisors also discussed the upcoming countywide radio upgrade project. Plans call for all county police and fire to upgrade to the same radio
