Conway approves intergovernmental cooperation agreement to support BVRPD vehicle grant application
Summary
Council approved execution of an intergovernmental cooperation agreement to sponsor BVRPD LSA vehicle grant applications, while some members expressed concern that sponsoring the regional police department affects the borough's own grant eligibility.
Council reviewed the Borough'9s role as administrative municipality for the Beaver Valley Regional Police Department (BVRPD) and concerns about Local Share Account (LSA) grant eligibility. Members discussed that applicants must be municipalities to apply for LSA grants and that sponsorship practices can affect eligibility; Councilmember Jocelyn Hertneky asked for assurance the Borough would not serve as a sponsoring municipality for a period to allow the Borough to pursue its own grant opportunities.
On motion of Patty Then, seconded by Mark Hertneky, council approved execution of the Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement for the BVRPD LSA Grant. The motion was recorded as carried unanimously. Council also directed President Levenson to raise the grant-eligibility concerns with the BVRPD board at their next meeting.
