Sheriff Matt Maschmann told the Poweshiek County Board of Supervisors on May 21 that the county’s regional tactical team 28E agreement is being amended to add the Newton Police Department.
The agreement currently includes the Grinnell Police Department, Jasper County Sheriff’s Office, Pella Police Department and the Poweshiek County Sheriff’s Office. The board voted to approve the update after Maschmann’s presentation; the motion was moved by Supervisor Jeff Tindle, seconded by Supervisor Jacki Bolen, and recorded as “2 ayes. Motion carried.”
