Pleasantville officials weigh police levy options and potential FCSO patrols
Summary
Officials said the village must decide how to use a permanent police levy. Councilman Bob Pangborn favored patrols by FCSO; Mayor Michelle Dumolt said she will obtain incident and response data from FCSO to inform the decision. No final action was recorded at the meeting.
The Village of Pleasantville committee discussed options for using proceeds from a permanent police levy and patrol arrangements at the May 8 special meeting.
Mayor Michelle Dumolt told council the village "has to do something with the levy money," and said she will request data from FCSO about incident reports and responses to help the council evaluate whether to retain local arrangements or increase FCSO patrols. Councilman Bob Pangborn said he does not want to utilize outside police departments and expressed support for patrols by FCSO.
Minutes do not record a motion, vote or decision; the mayor committed to obtaining data from FCSO to inform future deliberations.
Next steps in the minutes: the mayor will provide FCSO response and incident figures for council review at a future meeting.
