Options for Shared Police Services in the Villages of West Carthage and Carthage
CGR developed a report for the Villages of West Carthage and Carthage Shared Police Services Study Committee that identified a range of options for the two villages to improve delivery of police services currently being provided by their two separate departments. The options ranged from better coordinating operations of the two departments while keeping them separate and independent, in order to increase police coverage in the two villages, to creating a single consolidated police department jointly funded by the two villages. The two village boards will use the report to determine the extent to which they will pursue increased sharing of police resources.
