Census data and tight grant funds dim chances for extra Kincaid police vehicle
Summary
Trustee discussion and staff comments indicated the village likely missed the household-income threshold for a vehicle grant by about $237; the potential spare unit has over 100,000 miles and would need to be put up for bids if sold.
Trustee Lawrence raised prior discussions about acquiring an extra police vehicle and reported the item for committee consideration. DJ told trustees that after the most recent census data the village is roughly $237 over the household-income eligibility threshold for certain grant programs and that overall grant funds are short this cycle, reducing the village's odds of receiving vehicle funding.
Foreman Mathon said the likely spare unit is the white vehicle, which "has over one hundred thousand miles," and noted that any surplus vehicle would need to be placed for bids. Trustees asked the clerk to put the item on the next agenda for further consideration and potential surplus-vehicle procedures.
