Uniformed Stafford Township police officers lined the perimeter of the meeting room during the March 19 town council meeting for the swearing-in of new full-time Police Ptl. Zach Wiatrowski.

After the mayor and council’s authorization via resolution, Chief Thomas Dellane conducted the swearing-in, welcomed Wiatrowski to the department and spoke in praise of the 21-year-old Little Egg Harbor resident’s dedication to service.
