BOISE, Idaho - The Boise Police Department would merge with the Boise 
Airport Police this fall under a proposal from Boise Police Chief 
Michael Masterson.

Masterson made the recommendation to Mayor Dave Bieter and the city 
council today after reviewing a four-month study by the police 
department.He says the merger would improve public safety at the airport 
and save taxpayer money.Masterson also says a merger would improve 
communication between agencies if a major emergency ever occurs at the 
airport.
Under a merger, airport policing would be considered a specialty in the 
police department, much like school resource officers and neighborhood 
contact officers.
