The NEW Community Outreach Vehicle
Introducing LPD's Community Outreach
Vehicle. The COV is 40' long, 8.5' wide, and nearly 12' high. It was purchased
with funds from the Supplemental Law Enforcement Services grant that was about
to expire. Instead of the money being returned unused, a lot of effort was
made to create a multi-use vehicle. This vehicle can be used for major investigations,
recruitment, or long term emergency situations, to give a few examples. It
was designed for maximum flexibility, and trying to list it's many unique
features would fill this newsletter. Look for it at upcoming community events
like the police department's Open House on May 11.
