Common Council Report
Meeting Date: June 19, 2007
Item No.:
Recommendation: That the Common Council approve the proposed annual Agreement for School Resource Officer Services for the 2007-2008 school year.
Background: The City of Oak Creek and the Oak Creek/Franklin School District have had an Agreement for School Resource Officer Services in place since the program was instituted in 1999. The initial Agreement was a three-year contract with all subsequent renewal Agreements reviewed and signed annually. The Agreement provides for two police officers to serve as School Resource Officers at the Oak Creek High School and Oak Creek East and West Middle Schools with all costs for wages and benefits split equally between the City of Oak Creek and the Oak Creek/Franklin School District. In addition the Agreement defines the administrative issues associated with the program.
The language of the Agreement is the same as previous years and has been previously reviewed and approved by the City Attorney. In addition, the Oak Creek/Franklin Joint School District has already agreed to and signed the renewal Agreement for the 2007-2008 school year.
Fiscal Impact: The Oak Creek/Franklin School District will pay the City of Oak Creek a total of $98,355 for their share of the costs of the program. The City of Oak Creek’s portion of the costs, which also totals $98,355, will be covered by funds allocated in the Police Department’s 2007 and 2008 Full-Time Salaries budget account.
