More Edgewood drama ensues..... It appears the Edgewood city council was not informed of Mayor,Charles Prater's decision to temporarily suspend operations of the Edgewood police department.
In Monday’s Edgewood City Council meeting, Ruby Smith and council member Louis Dunn criticized the manner in which the Edgewood Police Department was shut down for the four days leading up to the meeting. "This was one of the biggest things that has come up. The whole council should have been notified ahead, but as far as I know only the mayor and mayor pro-tem knew about what was going to take place," she said."It was an embarrassment to me, to the council and to the city," Dunn added. "It didn’t have to be done this way."
No action was taken by the council on the police department’s future operations with a new budget year beginning Oct. 1.
All five of the department’s full-time employees returned to work Monday after a closed meeting with Askew.

Edgewood To Keep Police Department
It was decided in a meeting on Monday to keep the four Edgewood police officers.
Good for them, especially since there is no way the VZ county sheriff's department has the manpower to do so. Bad for us who forget about that little speed trap until it is too late.

Edgewood Texas Possibly Losing it's Police Department
Apparently the high price of gas and rising energy costs has now affected whether or not the city of Edgewood will be patroled by it's four police officers. As of Thursday morning they are on paid leave. The city says the Van Zandt County Sheriff's Department will be patrolling the streets for now. The city will discuss the fate of it's police department at a meeting Monday, July 28, 9:00 a.m. at the Edgewood city hall.

Weinerland!
Surely, David Pessink could have thought of a better name for his business than "Weinerland".
