Regional Police Department Provides Contracted Services to Avondale
What happened
Oxford council members voted to dissolve the borough’s local law enforcement force, which was established in 1926, and authorized the borough to seek to merge services with the Southern Chester County Regional Police Department. This regional department provides contracted services to Avondale, which is located within Chester County.

Why it matters
The move involves a local government restructuring, as Oxford Borough transitions from maintaining its own police force to utilizing contracted services from a regional department. This change affects how local services are funded and delivered within Chester County.
