Does the city really need a police chief?

Cape May - Does the city really need a police chief? Think of the money the taxpayers will save if they just hire a recent college graduate with a degree in criminal justice to do the paperwork that the police chief is required to do. Call the position "police clerk." You could pay the clerk one-third the salary of a police chief. Let the senior policeman in the ranks call all the necessary police actions. These small communities can't afford these bloated salaries anymore. You have to be politically connected to get these gravy jobs anyway.
