<br /> "It is the unanimous request of the membership of Gosport Lodge #20, Fraternal
<br />Order of Police, that Section 2-8 of the Portsmouth City Code pertaining to Residence
<br />requirements for Personnel, be immediately rescinded.
<br />
<br /> It is the concensus of the membership that the law as it stands is discriminatory
<br />and therefore unconstitutional in thee certain employees of the city are exempt whereas
<br />police and fire personnel are not. The City Manager has gone on record as saying that
<br />he will recommend to the Council that the law be rescinded next July, that being the case
<br />why should a police officer who woutd, iike to move to a neighboring city have to wait som,
<br />nine months. Furthermore, mt is a proven fact that this law hinders our recruitment effo:
<br />
<br /> In closing, we would like to reinerate that to usglh~s, isa most urgent matter and
<br />we would respectfully request that this matter be taken care of at the next session of Coq
