City Council Meeting · 2026-05-26 · agenda_item

This item concerns a policy update for School Resource Officers (SROs) regarding law enforcement actions on school grounds and at school functions. The policy outlines how SROs should respond to intruders and unwanted guests, and when they should inform school principals of their actions. It also details procedures for requesting additional law enforcement assistance. This policy is currently under review by the City Council. The implementation of this policy will involve the ongoing duties of SROs, which may include responding to incidents and coordinating with school staff. Local businesses that provide security services, training, or related equipment may find opportunities as this policy is finalized and put into practice. Early engagement with the relevant authorities could provide insight into potential future needs.
