Mrs. Elkort noted Chairman Del Vecchio would not be here due to an unexpected death
in his family.

Mr. Friel introduced the Chief of Police, Ken Berkowitz.

Chief of Police: Introduction of the new Police Patch; Kenneth Berkowitz:

The Chief of Police gave a brief background on the design of the new patch. He noted
will appear on the left shoulder of the uniforms as of 10-15-06. Chief noted it is placed on
the left shoulder because it is closer to the heart. The design of the patch was a group
amongst the officers. Once a design was chosen, it was forwarded to a gentleman on the
Cape who completed the design of the patch. The scene on the patch has three distinct
images: Paul Revere, lantern in hand, riding his horse upon a copper roll; the Viaduct is
in the background of the image, blue hills in the background, along with the native beads
outlining overall; gold symbolizing excellence, and black attributing the members lost in
the line of duty, and a blue line separating good from evil.

The Board congratulated the Chief on a wonderful job and thanked him for attending the
meeting.
