Earlville signs agreement for police coverage

EARLVILLE – The Village of Earlville Board approved a resolution Monday authorizing the village to enter into a contract with the Madison County Sheriff’s Department for regular police coverage.
The village police department has not been active since April of 2006, when the police chief resigned. The board and Mayor Toni Campbell have been discussing options for police coverage since that time; however no service agreements were made.
Last night, the board passed a resolution authorizing the village to enter into a specialized law enforcement services agreement with the Madison County Sheriff’s Department. The motion, made by William Excell and seconded by Mark Doeberl, passed with three consenting votes. Board member Kim Boomhower was not present for the meeting.
The Madison County Sheriff’s Department agreed to provide 16 man-hours a week to the village, a number that could increase or decrease with the mutual agreement of both parties. The village will pay approximately $30 an hour for the service.
The former village police station on Fayette Street will be utilized by the Sheriff’s Department. The agreement stipulates that the Sheriff’s Department will provide a vehicle, labor, equipment and supplies. The village will be responsible for maintaining the office, and furnishing office equipment, parking and the facility.
The contract is for one year of service, beginning on Sept. 1. The contract can be renewed annually.
