  1. We are lucky to have these officers, and all those serving Plainfield. I have found our officers to be professional, and exttremely responsive to all requests.

  2. I also have found our police officers to be very responsive and professional. I congratulate officers Lucky and Henderson. I wish the resolution had cited specifically how they went 'above and beyond'. Hopefully the Council will take the time to praise more of the Plainfield Police and Fire officers who go 'above and beyond'.

    1. I inquired and was told they spent a weekend on their own time to clean up the property of a terminally ill elderly woman who has since passed away.
