GLEN CARBON A technology tool to help Glen Carbon police fight certain types of crimes is a “go” again after village trustees last week unanimously approved paying $29,203 to Utilitra to complete a license plate reader (LPR) project.
Police Chief Todd Link requested two cameras to cover north and southbound Illinois 157 immediately south of the Interstate 270 overpass.
