This morning, the Lawrenceburg City Council convened for its regular session, where the meeting commenced with a celebration of local athletic achievements. The council took a moment to honor the Cal Ripken state champions from the 6-year-old, 9-year-old, and 10-year-old divisions, recognizing their hard work and dedication to the sport.
Following this commendation, the council shifted its attention to a series of agenda items, all of which were voted on and subsequently approved. Among the significant matters discussed was an ordinance aimed at amending the fiscal year budget for 2024-2025. Additionally, the council passed a resolution to engage in the Safety Partners Matching Grant Program for the upcoming fiscal year.
Another key resolution involved the acceptance of a proposal from Axon Enterprise, which will lead to a contract for the acquisition of 34 body cameras intended for use by the Lawrenceburg Police Department. This move is part of an ongoing effort to enhance transparency and accountability within the department. Furthermore, the council authorized the police department to procure court software from Southern Automated Systems, a decision that aims to streamline operations and improve efficiency in legal proceedings.
