Braidwood OKs reciprocal reporting agreement with Reed Custer School District
Summary
The council approved Ordinance 2026-42 authorizing a reciprocal reporting agreement with Reed Custer Community School District 255U to formalize information sharing for student safety and juvenile matters.
The Braidwood City Council voted to authorize the mayor to execute a reciprocal reporting agreement with Reed Custer Community School District 255U.
Staff explained these agreements formalize two-way information sharing between municipal public-safety entities and school districts to better coordinate responses involving juvenile safety, consistent with state juvenile-related statute frameworks and typical practice across the county. The city already has a countywide arrangement for some districts; this ordinance establishes a direct agreement with Reed Custer.
Council members said the agreement will help clarify record-sharing practices and regulatory expectations without changing the substantive juvenile statutes. The ordinance passed by recorded vote.
The agreement was described as administrative (no recurring fiscal impact was stated) and not requiring annual renewal with Reed Custer; staff said Grundy County's arrangement is reviewed annually but the local district agreement does not require annual renewal.
