Discussion:
The police department is seeking to extend the current School Resource Officer Agreement with the Shakopee School District. The proposed agreement would modify the length of the agreement from a one year period to a three year period, however the agreement continues to allow termination by either party with a 60 day written notice.
The previous agreement funded approximately 44 percent of four officers' annual salary and benefits. This agreement would phase increases over a three year period to reach 50% of the current cost in the 2022/2023 school year.
