Consider Approval of Extension of Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Carlsbad, Eddy County Commission and Carlsbad Municipal Schools for the Provision of School Resource Officers in the Carlsbad Municipal Schools for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year Mr. Lowe explained this is an extension of the original agreement for the SRO program that was put in place in 2016 and expired in 2017. He said that the provisions of the agreement have continued to be met. He explained recently the Police Department is looking at a grant for additional funding for the SRO program and in order to apply for the grant a current MOU must be in place. He added the Eddy County Commission will hear this extension at their next meeting on Tuesday, February 18, 2020. Chief Skinner explained that the Police Department has diligently held to the standards of providing 2 Resource Officers with the County providing an additional Resource Officer as the expired MOU set. He explained the grant funding source could offer as much as $500,000 of funding for the Carlsbad Police Department SRO program. Councilor Carter asked when the city would be notified if the Police Department was awarded the grant. Chief Skinner said near the end of the school year. Councilor Walterscheid asked if this grant will be a recurring grant. Chief Skinner said yes, he believes so unless a greater need is determined elsewhere.
