The INDEPENDENT, July 7, 2005
anks signs agreement for police services from Washington Co.
From page 14
($151,088 for fiscal 2005-
2006). Either party may term i
nate the agreement through a
lengthy 120-day process. How
ever, the city may terminate the
agreement at any time in the
event that funding is not avail
able to fulfill the cities obliga
tion. In addition to the officers,
the county will provide all
equipm ent necessary to pro
vide services including vehi
cles. The city is required to pro
vide a furnished office, includ
ing computers, and office sup
plies as needed. Deegan told
council that insurance costs for
next year would be dramatical
ly reduced, by about $13,000,
because liability insurance for
police services is included in
the contract.
Council created the office of
police commissioner and ap
pointed Branstitre to the posi
tion which will serve as liaison
and agent in matters regarding
the providing of police services.
Council also adopted a resolu
tion to disburse police depart
ment equipment. Four cars will
be sold, with proceeds going
towards offsetting the cost of
contract services. One comput
er will be donated to the library,
a laptop computer and projec
tor will be transferred to the city
for presentations, and a digital
camera will go to the water de
partment.
Lyda told council that he has
continued his discussions with
the Department of Justice con
cerning repayment of COPS
grant money. City recorder De
bra Deegan told council that
the money was awarded and
spent on police services. How
ever, while the North Plains
grant was for an established
agency the Banks grant was for
a start-up agency. Unfortunate
ly, personnel administrating the
grant at the time did not realize
that officers could not be trans
ferred from North Plains to
Banks at the same rate of pay.
When officers were transferred,
following the failure of a bond in
North Plains, they were trans-
ferred at the same rate of pay
which was higher than that al
lowed under the terms of the
Banks grant.
Lyda proposed a five-year
paym ent period beginning in
December. He told council that
this would allow council time to
continue to seek other rem e
dies. Pete Edison said, “ It’s
ridiculous to repay a police
services grant when the m on
ey was spent for com m unity
policing.”
Tim
G rossnickle,
Public
Works supervisor, told council
that well drilling was complet
ed. At the time, council ap
proved the base bid of $76,048,
they also approved additional
drilling to maximize water deliv
ery. Council approved an addi
tional $3,787 for drilling an ad
ditional 167 feet. The complet
ed well delivered over 500 gal
lons per minute, exceeding the
present well by 200 gallons per
minute. The city will now be
able to perfect the current well
permit and obtain a water right
of 300 gallons per minute at
this location. Grossnickle told
council that he does not expect
water curtailment this year.
In other business council:
• Council approved an oper
ating budget of $1,4485,054 for
the 2005-2006 fiscal year.
• Awarded a contract for
landscape
services
in
G reenville Park to Psalm 1
Landscape at a cost of
$15,750.
Many students earned scholarships, and GPA honors
