My name is Keith Snow and I am writing this letter because I want to get it out there that we need to really start cracking down and putting out more DUI checkpoints. I have said it before, but this is something I feel strongly about. I hardly saw any checkpoints during this past holiday season and I don’t understand why that is. We need to keep the streets safe and we could have made a lot of revenue. The city says they are doing all these wonderful, new things for the city and community but I do not see anything yet.

I have mentioned this to Chief Westrick and the captain as well; let’s get the explorer program going and involved. We can use active and non-active officers as well. Let’s straighten out our city. I was out traveling, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I did not see one checkpoint; if there was one I would have seen the flares out.
