Council hears proposed MOU with Paulding County School District Police Department as district forms its force
Summary
Staff told the council the Paulding County School District has established its first police department and recommended a memorandum of understanding so school police and the city can coordinate responsibilities for schools located in Hiram.
City staff briefed the council that the Paulding County School District recently formed its first police department and held a swearing‑in ceremony for command staff. Staff said placing school police in Hiram schools (Hiram Elementary, Hiram High School and others named in the packet) will shift many routine responsibilities in‑house to the district, and recommended an MOU to clarify response responsibilities and interagency coordination.
The staff speaker said the proposed MOU is included in council packets and invited questions. No substantive changes or objections were raised in the work session discussion; the MOU was listed on the consent agenda for council consideration.
