Committee increases police line to $6,000 amid contract review
Summary
Committee members reviewed options for police coverage and agreed to increase the police services line to $6,000 for 2026 to reflect potential contracting of roughly 4 hours per week of service.
The Finance & Purchase Committee reviewed options for police coverage in the village’s 2026 draft budget and agreed to raise the police services line to $6,000 for the coming year. Members noted the current $5,300 figure had been tied to an assumption of about 4 hours per week of contracted service; the revised $6,000 amount is intended to better reflect likely contracting costs.
No formal contract award or vendor selection occurred at the Sept. 23 meeting; the committee discussed previously presented options and adjusted the budget line to $6,000 to allow for additional contracted hours or cost changes. The committee recorded the increase for inclusion in next month’s revised budget materials.
