Tuckersmith happy with its level of policing Tuckersmith Township council are happy with the level of policing the municipality receives frbm the OPP. Council met with members of the Huron Detachment of the OPP on April 16 to discuss policing levels and the costs being billed to municipalities. Prior to this, council met April 15 at a special meeting to prepare for the police meeting and to address the restructuring proposals from Huron County. This year, through provincial downloading, all municipalities will have to pay for policing. Except for municipalities like Seaforth that have entered into contracts with the OPP for policing, municipalities have traditionally received policing at no direct charge from the province. While meeting with the OPP, council inquired about the possibility of Seaforth or Clinton expanding its service area and about allowing legal secretaries and bylaw enforcement officers to handle some of the calls that officers might not need to handle.
