COMMITTEE REPORT: Wilharber explained at the last Police Commission Meeting Centerville's population was brought up in comparison to the 10 classification. Wilharber mentioned this so the council could be aware. Walt Neumann said one C.S.O. could not cover the area so they may have to hire another. Neumann felt there was two options, first stay with Circle-Lex since they are the best in the area and we would get good time and service. Second, if forced into paying too much the city may consider going on our own. Brenner reported on EDC, Don Casanova was at the last meeting and said he will be looking for more space within the next two years. Further, Casanova expressed concern about the length of time for police respond to calls. Brenner explained EDC is asking business owners to talk at the meetings to give EDC a better idea of what the needs are.
