Summary
The Board voted 7‑0 to approve two intermunicipal agreements to provide school resource officer (SRO) services with neighboring villages; Walden remains in negotiation and was not included on the agenda by mutual agreement, staff said.
The Board of Education voted unanimously on July 28 to approve intermunicipal agreements to provide school resource officer (SRO) services with two neighboring villages.
A motion to approve an intermunicipal agreement with the Village of Neighbor (SRO services) was moved by Katie and seconded by Diane; the board recorded the vote as 7‑0 in favor. A separate motion to approve an intermunicipal agreement with the Village of Montgomery for SRO services was moved and seconded and also approved 7‑0.
Board staff noted for the record that Walden had not been omitted intentionally from the agreements; the village had received the contract for review but had not yet returned it to the district.
Why it matters: intermunicipal agreements determine the presence, responsibilities and funding arrangements for school resource officers and affect school safety protocols and budgets. The approved motions will allow the district to formalize SRO coverage with the two villages named in the agreements; Walden remains a separate ongoing discussion.
The vote was procedural and taken during the consent/new business portion of the meeting; no public discussion or amendment of the agreements was recorded during the meeting.
