FROM:Nate Reinhardt, Finance Director
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
School Resource Officer Agreement
Policy/Action Requested:
Renew and accept modifications to the School Resource Agreement
Recommendation:
Staff recommends renewing the School Resource Officer Agreement.
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. 

Budget Impact:
The School District's contribution to the city for four School Resource Officer's in 2020 is $234,862, an increase of $21,468 from 2019.
