RCPD Deputy Director Erin Freidline appeared before the Riley County Commission during a meeting on Monday, July 13, describing the pursuit of the funding and its potential to support facility changes. The request is tied to the department’s broader plan to bring in grant resources for upgrades and expansion.
Details on whether the grant has been awarded or what specific renovations would be included were not provided in the available report. For now, the immediate step described is the department’s push to move forward with the federal funding effort.
