Proposed Director of Security for Ridgefield Schools draws concern

Concerns are being voiced by some members of the Ridgefield Board of Selectmen over a proposed Director of Security for the School District.  The new administrative position would cost $85,000.  The Ridgefield Press reports that the Selectmen make a “non-binding recommendation” about the Board of Ed budget to the Board of Finance.  Those members then send final school and town budget proposals to voters during a referendum. Police Chief Jeff Kreitz told the Selectmen that the job done by the department’s school resource officers go through an audit with state police.
