Summary
Neil Van Boening, chair of the Police Department Advisory Committee, recommended a $15,000 sign-on bonus to help recruit a police chief; the council asked for a payment schedule and placed the item on the next agenda for further consideration.
The Wymore City Council discussed a recommendation from the Police Department Advisory Committee (PDAC) for a $15,000 sign-on bonus to recruit police staff, including a prospective chief. PDAC Chair Neil Van Boening presented the recommendation and said the bonus would be paid out in stages.
