The Village of Turkey Creek recently discovered that its police department is not broke.
At the Village’s council meeting in June, council members approved moving $35,000.00 from the utility fund after the police department fell short on money to pay its monthly expenses.
However, it was recently brought to the attention of Mayor Heather Cloud by police chief Robbert Legget that last October the council approved moving $80,000.00 from the police fund into a saving account.
This money will go back to the police department fund.
Since this discovery, the villages’s mayor also plans to request that the council move $35,000 from the police department fund back to the utility fund.
Look for an update on this following the village’s council meeting this month.
