  2. Fairview Cemetery has been hiring off-duty Westfield police officers to work security at no cost to Westfield taxpayers. This was confirmed by Mayor Skibitsky at last weeks town council meeting.

  3. Ms Jill brown had a father daughter dance in December and again in february, she stated that all proceeds would go to furniture assist. I looked all over the patch( this is were it was advertised) and there has been no follow up. Where did all the $$ go? I called furniture assist and no reply. Can you please look into this?

    1. Jill Brown has been affiliated with Furniture Assist for years however she is no longer on the Furniture Assist board. Laws differ from state to state regarding the percentage of monies raised via a fundraiser that are turned over to the designated charity. In this case, if the money raised was earmarked for Furniture Assist the percentage turned over could be as low as 20% or as high as 100% of the gross after all bills and other expenditures associated with running the event are paid.

  6. I would bet ahe would have to give up her position....afterall having an affair with Parizeau takes up free time....

  7. How ironic....she is not welcome at the charity organization she worked for and not welcome at her church in Westfield. Maybe instead of Furniture Assist she could start a Married Mans Assist......although we all see how that worked out for her. She got divorced and the chief got divorced but they ain't together. Hear after spending years cheating with her he is begging his ex-wife to come back.

  8. Looking back now Chief Parizeau's, was it all worth it. You never wanted to be chief and took it so Gildea didn't have to recommend Auchter. Look what it got you, a failed marraige because of your own arrogance, subordinates that came wait for you to leave because you have failed to lead as chief allowing Wayman to run amuck, Tow never were a cop, just an overpaid clerical worker in a uniform after you were removed from patrol. At least all the teenage high school girl parents were relieved. The shame of it all is that while you engaged in your extra marital affairs while hanging out in A.C. at conventions, didn't Andy or Jim ever wonder who the other woman was they had to know it was not your wife. What does that say about your character?

    2. And what were they gonna do ? Fire him for cheating ? If that were the case, there would be NO police department if infidelity were grounds for termination!

  9. It was announced at the last council meeting that all the residents of Westfield will now pay a sewer fee because there is not enough money for the town to continue to pay it. I want to know where is all the new tax revenues from all the new construction in Westfield going. The taxes on the new construction is at least double what the older homes tax was. Where is all the money?
