He stated we are at a critical crossroad and we cannot continue to kick the can down the road. He stated we will need to take al bold stand on a lot of things that will not be pleasant.

He stated we can continue to  with al lot of decisions to be made.  discuss what the Council wants to do with the ARP funds in. July and August.  POLICE DEPARTMENT  Chief Deal thanked the Council to listening to what we need in the budget. He stated we want to make sure we are on tract of being were we need to be and not fall behind. He stated when we, grow, we: need to grow correctly. He stated we have 13 full time officers and an average experience of 13 years per officer. He stated with our population of 4,300 we have 1 officer per 330 individuals. He stated the predicted growth is double our population. He stated if we do not continue to grow the staff with the population then this could quickly change to 1 officer per 700 individuals. He stated we are asking for two police vehicles to continue the seven year car replacement program, continue support of the Career Development Plan, continue funding the Smith-Rodgers Attorneys, and one direct enforcement position. He stated seven years seems to be where the vehicles are ending their life as a patrol vehicle. He stated we use to be able to buy a vehicle for $43,000 but there has been a 20% increase in the price of vehicles and equipment, sO we are looking at $50,000 per vehicle. He stated the Career Development Plan helps with retaining officers. He stated a direct enforcement position can work traffic, peak times, help with investigations, work on special projects and investigate speed complaints. He stated with the current structure we have one sergeant, Sergeant Frazier over two squads, and Officer Vail is the Traffic Officer/Direct Enforcement Officer. He stated this works for now but leaving Sergeant Frazier over the two squads is not a long-term solution and this is why we are asking for one position. He stated in five  326/Page, Minute Book 7    years the Town will double its population. He stated in the next five years the structure will need to be a total of 20 officers with a Chief, Captain, three Sergeants, and five patrol officers per Sergeant. He stated the American Rescue Plan can help with this growth. He stated he would request two years of funding through ARP funds for police vehicles, he stated this would free up $100,000 per year for two years. He Mrs. Sheets asked for a copy of the presentation. She asked what Chief Deals top two needs are. Chief Deal stated the two vehicles and a new position are needed. Mrs. Sheets asked if a new position is added then will a third vehicle be needed. Chief Deal stated no another vehicle would not be needed. Mrs. Sheets asked if the two vehicles are in the proposed budget. Mrs. Nichols stated no, there is no capitol in the budget and the two vehicles to continue the 7-year replacement program where removed. Mr. Ketner stated his major concern is employee pay and a new employee. He stated he has an employee that started in December that started out at $15.00 an hour. He stated he has another employee that has been with the Town for 12 years making $16.48 an hour and one that has been here for 15 years making $17.35. He stated with the new Macy's facility coming in soon and proposing to pay $18 an hour we will lose these employees and also struggle with hiring new employees. He stated they are able to track curbside by the tonnage. He stated the total cost for collecting and getting rid of curbside runs around $68,000 for the year. He stated he believes brush cost more but we do not track the cost due to chipping the brush and giving the mulch to farmers and residents. He stated he thinks an answer to reducing the cost of curbside collection would be going to a quarterly pickup instead of a weekly pickup. He stated charging per item for curbside could be another way to help pay for the service. He stated with the growth that is coming curbside affects his department immediately. He stated the Public Works Department is operating with old equipment and went over all trucks and equipment. He stated he would like to request Mrs. Sheets asked where the $68,000 per year for curbside collection comes from.

He stated he is requesting two new garage doors and another door added to the building behind the Fire Department for better access to equipment.
