Title
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between School District 230 and The Village of Orland Park for the services of an Orland Park Police Department School Resource Officer (SRO) at Carl Sandburg High School-Recommended Updated Agreement.
History
The Village of Orland Park has provided a School Resource Officer (SRO) to School District 230 (Carl Sandburg High School) since 2003. From time to time the Village and the District have entered into updated versions of the School Resource Officer Intergovernmental Agreement, most recently in 2023. In 2025, the Illinois State Legislature adopted SB 1519 which amended the School Code, specifically focusing on the practice of issuing municipal ordinance tickets as disciplinary measures on school property, and these revisions require each District that has a School Resource Officer to either create an agreement or update its existing agreement to comply with the provisions of the new law. The Village and District 230 have worked together on an updated agreement that complies with all updates to the School Code.
Financial Impact
School District 230 will continue pay the Village of Orland Park a 2.5% annual increase for services on August 1st of each year during the life of the agreement. The current (2025-2026) rate is $120,020.09.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the Intergovernmental Agreement between the Village of Orland Park and School District 230 for a School Resource Officer (SRO) at Carl Sandburg High School;
AND
Authorize the Village Manager, or his designee, to execute the agreement, subject to Village Attorney review.
