White Cloud council ratifies amendment to shared police‑chief agreement with Grant addressing vehicle cost recovery
Summary
The City of White Cloud approved an amendment to its interlocal agreement with the City of Grant for a shared police chief, deleting the prior payment section and adding vehicle cost‑recovery provisions (capital cost allocation, useful life, repairs and payment terms). The amendment was ratified by unanimous roll call on May 12.
The White Cloud City Council on May 12 approved an amendment to the interlocal agreement with the City of Grant that governs a shared police chief. The amendment revises financial terms related to vehicle provision and cost recovery.
Under the approved amendment, Article I, Section 2.03 (Payment) is deleted and a new Article IV is added to establish a vehicle cost‑recovery framework that addresses: provision of a vehicle; adjusted capital cost; allocation and useful life; illustrative (non‑binding) examples; repairs and maintenance; and payment terms. The amendment also includes ratification language to confirm the change to the existing interlocal agreement dated December 23, 2024.
Councilmember Damon Anuci moved to approve the amended contract and councilmember Amy Barnhard seconded the motion. The amendment was approved by roll call vote with all members present voting in favor.
The amendment clarifies how vehicle capital costs and ongoing maintenance will be allocated between the participating municipalities; the transcript lists the contract components added (capital cost, allocation, useful life, repair/maintenance, and payment terms) but does not specify dollar amounts or the precise allocation methodology. The City and Grant retain the authority to finalize payment schedules and cost‑recovery calculations consistent with the amended contract language.
Next steps: the amendment was ratified by the council and is effective immediately; any further operational changes (vehicle assignment or billing) will be implemented under the contract terms and administered by the participating municipalities.
