Village awarded $98,000 grant for police equipment including car, computers, CAD system funding
Summary
Trustees reported a $98,000 grant award to buy a police car, office computers, and $6,000 toward a Tyler CAD system; board discussed reimbursement procedures and required signatures from trustees for purchases.
A trustee reported the village was awarded a $98,000 grant for equipment that would allow the purchase of a new police vehicle, updated office computers, and $6,000 toward a Tyler CAD system. The grant award was communicated by email and the trustee said reimbursement procedures would likely require the village to purchase equipment and then submit invoices for reimbursement.
Board members discussed logistics for purchases, the need for two additional trustees to sign paperwork, and sequencing purchases to test the reimbursement process (beginning with the vehicle). "So it's for 98," a trustee said, referring to $98,000; trustees asked staff to confirm reimbursement mechanics before spending village funds.
