wasting taxpayer dollars

Can we afford to spend tax dollars on false claims?

So members of a particular community don't want people who work near their homes to park on the public streets in front of their homes. Untrue accusations are being made about their children's safety being put in jeopardy, driveways being blocked and the list goes on.  Now 4 police officers are on "patrol" on one short dead-end block.  Not ONE but FOUR, who are having a good ole time drinking coffee, gabbing with colleagues, hanging out.  Why does it take 4 officers? I guess Teaneck must have lots of cash lying around.  I guess Teaneck is a "sleepy suburban" town with such a low crime rate that there is nothing better for our officers to do.

Can we really afford this Teaneck?  If so many resources can be pulled for one small block then crime in our town should be the lowest in NJ.
