County approves four-year SRO agreement; 28E services continued with higher reimbursement
Summary
Supervisors approved a four-year school resource officer agreement with the Muscatine-area school district and accepted a 28E extension that increases partner reimbursement to 80% (from 75%) for specified services; board approved the agreements by voice vote.
Louisa County supervisors voted to approve a four-year school resource officer (SRO) agreement and to continue a 28E intergovernmental services agreement after a staff briefing.
County staff explained the 28E extension for services at a partner jurisdiction (described in the meeting as "LM") will run another four years beginning in July; the partner board agreed to reimburse 80% (up from the prior 75%) of the employee’s wages and related line items after call-report review. Staff said the increase reflects the actual time the employee spends serving the partner jurisdiction. The employee discussed in the report, Greg, said he plans to remain in the school assignment until he retires.
Supervisors then moved to approve a four-year agreement with the Muscatine Community School District (as transcribed) for a school resource officer. The contract includes cost-of-living increases and specific squad provisions over the term. The board approved the motion by voice vote.
What happens next: county staff will finalize contract copies and distribute executed originals to partner offices; county and district staff will implement the reimbursement schedule described in the 28E extension.
Direct quotes from the meeting were limited; staff summarized the reimbursement increase as a change from 75% to 80% to reflect actual time allocation.
