Open Letter to the Community from Chief Nordquist:

As your Chief, it is my responsibility and pleasure to be accessible to the residents and business people within the Town of Ogden and Village of Spencerport. I am always willing to meet with someone who has a question or a concern. Many times a resident will come into the office only to find that I am out of the building or attending a previously scheduled meeting. To be more efficient and available to the community, I wish to expand a practice that I already have in place. Currently, I set aside every Friday from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. for our Neighborhood Watch Captains to stop in and see me for matters that need to be discussed. I offer the same open invitation to everyone in our community. No appointment is necessary; nobody will be turned away.

Of course, I am available other times as well. This is meant to serve as an open invitation at a time when I am scheduled in the office. The Police Department works very closely with Supervisor Lenhard and Mayor Lobene’s Office and often times, our collective communication can address an issue of concern in a timely manner. Some issues are strictly Police Department specific. I welcome the opportunity to discuss anything that is of importance or concern to you.

       Sincerely,

       Douglas Nordquist

       Chief of Police
