Fiscal Impact
The FY 22 budget included funds for the annual subscription service in account 1001.42400.101.530667. This is a three-year agreement.
Background
In 2019, the Village contracted with Lexipol to assist the Police Department with reviewing, updating, and disseminating new policies. The Police Department has over 200 policies that need to be reviewed. Lexipol provides a comprehensive database of organizational tailored policies and procedures vetted by police professionals and public safety attorneys grounded in Illinois legislation and industry best practices. Lexipol also provides the department with a technology-based platform to facilitate daily training and comprehension assessment tracking. Due to the quantity and mass overhaul of our current policies, the review and update process is still ongoing. BerryDunn, the Village’s independent facilitator related to the Village Board’s community safety goals, will perform a review of the policies drafted by Lexipol.
Alternatives
The Village Board can delay action and seek more information.
