Presently, we have an unprecedented three classes in the Police Academy, with one of those classes scheduled for graduation shortly.  It is important that we all remember that their training does not end upon graduation.  I am depending on all Supervisors to continue their training.  With your help, these officers who are the future of this department, can continue to uphold the standard of public service we have all worked so hard to achieve.  Our department is known nationwide for its professionalism and expertise and with your guidance these officers will continue to uphold this Department’s outstanding reputation. 

Over the past month, I have had the opportunity to congratulate many SOA members at our celebration ceremonies for their heroic acts and their long time public service.   You are all true assets to the department and I would like to once again congratulate and thank you for all of your hard work and dedication.

 Additionally, I look forward to further promotions in the near future and would like to advise you that the SOA contract is currently working its way through the system and will hopefully be resolved soon.

 In closing, I would like to urge all department members to take advantage of the nicer weather by interacting with the communities in which we serve.  The knowledge we gain and the relationships we foster can be very useful to this department as we continue to serve and protect the residents of Nassau County.

Best wishes to you all for continued success.

RETIREES:

Commissioner Mulvey asked us to forward this notice that was written by him and addressed to our retired membership:

 Attention Retired Force Members:

 I have heard from many retirees who have expressed an interest in being kept abreast of current events in the Police Department.  In this regard I have arranged an email process by which we can keep you informed of matters of interest to you.  If you would like to avail yourself of this service, please email your personal email address, name and serial number to:

 retiredemail@pdcn.org

 Once we have compiled a list, we will begin sending out notices on a regular basis.  Retired members can be added at anytime and will be removed upon request.  All we ask if that you keep your information current.

 Our retired force members are an important part of the Nassau County police family.  I hope this process keeps you informed.

 Lawrence W. Mulvey, Commissioner of Police
