Background- Terms:

Section 7-148 cc of the Statutes of the State of Connecticut authorizes municipalities to enter into interlocal agreements.

To address certain emergency response situations Police Departments have found a need for highly trained and skilled personnel coupled with a crisis negotiation team can substantially reduce the risk of injury or loss of life to citizens, police officers, criminal suspects and persons in crisis.

The attached "Southeastern Connecticut Special Response Team Agreement" would allow the towns of Ledyard and Waterford to enter into an Agreement to work together to:

* Provide police services/support in responding to specific types of emergency situations and
* Pursue grants and raise funding to obtain capital resources to further the goals provided in the terms of the proposed Agreement.


Each participating municipality would be responsible for its respective police department expenses incurred while participating in each deployment, whether that municipality's equipment and personnel was operating within or without its own jurisdiction. Any entitlement to reimbursement, except as stated in the Agreement, would be waived by the chief executive officer of each municipality that was a party to this agreement; as outlined in "Article Three" (Reimbursement and Liability) of the Agreement.
