Trappe sheriff patrols to be reduced when grant funds lapse in September
Summary
Sgt. Aita told the council that grant funds supporting patrols will run out sometime in September, leading to reduced patrols; a new grant application is pending but, if awarded, funds would not be available until October.
Sgt. Aita presented the monthly police report and told the council that the grant funds currently supporting patrols will run out sometime during September. The minutes state the Sheriff’s Office has applied for a new grant; if awarded, the new funds would not be available until October, which means patrol levels will be reduced while the town awaits funding.
The council did not take additional action at the meeting; the minutes do not specify contingency plans, overtime decisions, or whether the town will use other local funds to cover patrols during the gap.
