    RIVERSIDE POLICE DEPARTMENT


    31 Riverside Road, Riverside, Illinois 60546

    21 December 2015
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Contact:

    Chief Tom Weitzel

    Riverside Police Department Releases 2015 Grant Report


    These grants (many of them multi-year) were for traffic enforcement, tobacco compliance checks,
    squad laptops, bulletproof vests and equipment.
    These were all non-matching with the exception of the federal vest grant, meaning there was no
    money required from the Village/taxpayers in order to be eligible for the grant. Chief Weitzel
    stated, Were always looking for these types of grant opportunities.
    Chief Weitzel recognized Deputy Chief David Krull and Sergeant Jeff Miller for their dedication in
    not only seeking out grant opportunities, but their diligence in applying for grants and the
    administration and fulfillment of grant requirements.
    Grants are not easy work. Even after
    obtaining them, all equipment received (as a result of the grants) must be installed, instruction
    provided, and implementation of its use is required; as well as keeping track of officers time and
    proper paperwork in order to seek reimbursement the Chief later said.
    All equipment and training
    obtained through the grants
    was utilized and directly
    impacted Riverside residents.
    The Chief stated, These
    grants have allowed us to
    deliver more efficient police
    service to citizens, putting
    little financial burden on the
    Village and have allowed us
    to secure training and
    equipment that we could not
    have otherwise procured due
    to
    current
    budget
    constraints.
