Lyle showed me in the news paper where they reported that at any given time there are between 14 - 20 police officers on duty.  If there are 240,000 residents in Greensboro that would make the ratio 1/ 12,000!.  and if you read the report that the city had to prepare for the annexation areas, that report details that the coverage is 2.46 police per 1,000 residents.  If my math is correct: they say they coverage would be 1.25/ 500 and if the news paper data is correct the city is protected at a coverage of 1/ 12,000.  and they think that they can and SHOULD annex our area that is 5 + miles away from the main city.  i say NO they CAAN't protect us.  I am sorry but that is not even close.  Just another reason why they should delay our annexation.
