City administration presented a one‑year School Resource Officer (SRO) agreement between the Toledo Police Department and Toledo Public Schools (TPS) that would accept and spend $268,430.01 in payments from TPS to reimburse the city for SRO services.

Police officials said the funding represents one half of the salary and benefits for six officers assigned to certain TPS schools for the nine‑month school year, a cost‑sharing arrangement the presenters said TPS has paid “since the 1999 through 2000 school year.” The administration asked council to waive competitive bidding provisions where applicable and declared an emergency to move the ordinance forward.

The chair recommended advancing the item; the transcript records the funding amount and the officer count but does not show a final recorded vote. Council members did not raise substantive objections during the presentation.

The ordinance, if approved, would authorize the mayor to accept the TPS payment into the general fund and to expend the funds to cover the agreed portion of SRO compensation for the coming school year.
