Cecil Township board approves settlement with former patrol officer; details treated as personnel matter
Summary
The board voted to add and then approve a settlement agreement with former patrol officer Chad Troover. Officials described the matter as a police personnel issue and said documents will be subject to right-to-know requests after finalization.
Cecil Township supervisors on Jan. 5 added to the agenda and approved a settlement agreement with former patrol officer Chad Troover, authorizing township officials to execute the agreement.
The motion to add the item to the agenda was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote. The board then approved the settlement agreement after brief procedural discussion. When a member of the public asked what the settlement concerned, officials said it was a police personnel matter and therefore was discussed in executive session; they also said that once documents are finalized they may be available under the Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law.
The meeting record includes the motion language to approve the settlement and to authorize appropriate township officials to execute it, but the transcript does not provide details on the settlement amount or specific terms. Board members said personnel confidentiality limited discussion at the public meeting.
