Why This Vote Matters
The city council unanimously approved continuing a deal where the Hilltop shopping center pays for extra police patrols at their location. Under this arrangement, the city provides additional police coverage through overtime shifts, and LBG Hilltop reimburses the city for those costs. The agreement runs for one year with an option to extend for another year, meaning taxpayers don't pay for the enhanced security at the private shopping center. This was a routine contract renewal that continues an existing practice.
