First reading: Board hears about nearly $10,000 LLEBG subaward for cameras
Summary
On first reading the board considered Bill 4,047, a subaward agreement with the Missouri Department of Public Safety for a Local Law Enforcement Block Grant of $9,999.99 to fund cameras; acceptance requires the mayor's signature.
The Board of Aldermen held a first reading of Bill 4,047, authorizing the mayor to execute a subaward agreement with the Missouri Department of Public Safety for a Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG).
Chief Vargas briefed the board, saying the LLEBG program helps offset equipment and training costs. He described this particular subaward as "specifically for our lock cameras" and said the award was up to, but not including, $10,000; the recorded award amount was $9,999.99. Chief Vargas said the city needs to sign the agreement to accept the grant.
A motion for first reading was moved and seconded and the board recorded the first reading by title. No substantive debate or amendments were recorded on the first reading, and the matter will return for further action consistent with the city's ordinance-reading process.
The transcript records the first reading only; final acceptance and any required matching funds or reporting requirements were not discussed on the record during this meeting.
