Town Manager reports grant will provide body cameras to Hancock County police
Summary
Town Manager Sara J. Liscomb reported that a grant applied for by Andy Sanky through Senator Susan Collins was approved and "signed and approved by President Trump," and that as a result every police department in Hancock County is expected to receive body cameras, according to the minutes.
Town Manager Sara J. Liscomb told the Selectmen that a grant applied for by Andy Sanky through Senator Susan Collins "was signed and approved by President Trump," and that every police department in Hancock County "will be getting free body cameras," according to the Jan. 28 minutes.
The minutes record this as an item under Town Manager updates; they do not include grant documents, funding amounts, award conditions, or an implementation timeline. The statement is recorded as reported by the Town Manager and was not challenged or expanded upon during the meeting.
Because the minutes present the item as the Town Manager's report without supplemental documentation, follow-up steps should include obtaining the grant award letter, clarifying which towns and departments are covered, and confirming timelines and any matching or administrative requirements.
