Le Roy board declares police equipment surplus and authorizes reserve-funded vehicle and pistol purchases
Summary
The Village of Le Roy Board approved declaring a 2018 Dodge Charger and old Glock service pistols surplus and authorized retroactive expenditures from the Police Equipment Reserve to buy a 2018 Dodge Durango ($14,500) and new Glock duty pistols (not to exceed $32,450).
Mayor Gregory Rogers and trustees approved two police-department resolutions at the Oct. 16 workshop that will let the department sell older equipment and use the proceeds to offset new purchases.
The first resolution declared a 2018 Dodge Charger (VIN 2C3CDXKT7JH197932) and Glock service duty pistols surplus and authorized transferring sale proceeds to the A895 Police Equipment Reserve. The Board recorded the motion by Trustee James Bonacquisti, seconded by Trustee William Kettle; votes were Bonacquisti — Aye, Kettle — Aye, Trustee Richard Tetrault — Aye and Mayor Rogers — Aye.
The Board then retroactively authorized expenditures from the A895 reserve (retro to Oct. 11, 2024) to acquire a 2018 Dodge Durango (VIN 1C4SDJFT8JC456199) from GSA Fleet Sales for $14,500 and to purchase Glock service duty pistols, optics and holsters in an amount not to exceed $32,450 (quote dated Oct. 11, 2024). Trustee Bonacquisti moved the expenditure resolution; Trustee Kettle seconded and the motion carried with the same recorded votes.
Chief Greg Kellogg had described department activity earlier in the meeting, noting recent serious motor-vehicle accidents, a burglary in progress, search warrants producing fentanyl and fraudulent benefit cards, and increasing car pursuits on I‑490. He also reported coordinating with NYS DOT on permitting and a grant for four flashing radar signs and said the department appreciates work to protect vehicles from deer impacts.
The Board did not specify timelines for replacing equipment beyond the authorization and did not record individual sale prices for the surplus items; proceeds are to be deposited into the police equipment reserve per the resolution.
