Marshall City Council approves Versaterm contract for police engagement
During the Oct 7 session at City Hall the Marshall City Council approved a contract with Versaterm to implement a community engagement software for the police department. City Manager Derek Perry and City Clerk Michelle Eubank were authorized to sign documents. The project, funded in part by a Momentum Grant from the Marshall Community Foundation, has an initial cost of 9924 with an annual renewal of 7524. The system, already in use by Battle Creek and the county, will send texts or emails to 911 callers with resource links. The camera-ready plan ties into the department’s 2024 action plan and 2024-25 budget. The next meeting is October 21 at City Hall.
