Local leaders in Washington County are considering a merger of their police departments into a regional force, following a proposal aimed at reducing costs and sharing resources. The towns involved are Mount Pleasant Township, Robinson Township, Midway Borough, and McDonald Borough. While Mount Pleasant Township and McDonald Borough have voted in favor, Robinson Township and Midway Borough have opposed the idea, putting the process on hold. The initiative was sparked by rising police service costs and a decline in job applicants. As discussions continue, residents can expect updates in the coming months.
