BACKGROUND:
The Troy Community Consolidated District 30-C (“Troy”) is an Illinois Public School District with some schools that are within the corporate limits of the City of Joliet. The Illinois School Code requires that Troy establish and maintain a parent-teacher advisory committee to establish policy guidelines on pupil discipline. This committee is also required to cooperate with local law enforcement agencies to develop guideline procedures to establish and maintain a reciprocal reporting system between the school district and the local law enforcement. The School Code encourages school districts to create an MOU on the role of local law enforcement in schools. The Public Safety Committee will review this matter.
RECOMMENDATION:

The Administration recommends the Mayor and the City Council approve the attached resolution that authorizes the Chief of Police to enter a MOU with Troy.
