Committee approves cooperative law-enforcement grant with Lac Courte Oreilles, roughly $50,000
Summary
The committee approved a cooperative law enforcement grant agreement with Lac Courte Oreilles (LCO) that channels approximately $50,000 to the tribe and offsets county costs; the cooperative agreement (Exhibit A) was approved by voice vote.
The Sawyer County Public Safety Committee approved a cooperative law-enforcement grant agreement with the Lac Courte Oreilles (LCO) Band that sends approximately $50,000 directly to LCO while offsetting county costs.
Mr. Martin, who presented the item, described the agreement as a recurring cooperative grant the county has used in recent years: "The money goes directly to LCO, but it does help to free cost. It's about $50,000," he said. Committee members moved and seconded the resolution; the motion carried by voice vote. The committee also accepted the attached cooperative law-enforcement agreement (Exhibit A).
Committee discussion confirmed the grant does not cover certain county radio-tower work for the 2026 period but was identified as a recurring funding relationship that could be revisited for future eligibility. The approval was recorded as a voice vote in the meeting transcript.
