Louisa County, LM School to draft 28E agreement after school agrees to fund 75% of SRO
Summary
County and local law enforcement discussed a school resource officer for LM School; the school agreed to fund 75% of the position and board members said they supported drafting a 28E agreement between the county and the school.
County and school officials discussed funding and implementation of a school resource officer (SRO) for LM School during the Jan. 25 meeting.
Sheriff Brad Turner, 1st Deputy Brandon Marquardt, Wapello SRO Kody Aplara and Wapello Police Chief Ed Parker described how the SRO program operates in Wapello. Turner said LM School had agreed to fund 75% of an SRO position, and LM Superintendent Mike Van Sickle said the school board had approved the position. The next step, as recorded in the minutes, is drafting a 28E agreement between the county and the school to formalize responsibilities and funding.
The board expressed support for the plan; the minutes show the supervisors viewed the proposed arrangement as positive but do not record a formal vote on a county financial commitment at this meeting.
