THOMASTON — After years of first responders dealing with failing radios, taxpayers sent a strong message on Wednesday by voting in favor of a $3.9 million project to replace the town's entire radio communications infrastructure.
In an 190-10 vote, residents at a town meeting approved the project after about 30 minutes of questioning the cost and the necessity of the system.
Sgt. James Campbell, acting police chief, said the next step is to have the town attorney closely review a contract with Motorola and move that on to the Board of Selectmen for their approval. Once that is completed the work can begin, he said
