Warson Woods appears to be ending its bid for merging its police services with that of neighboring Glendale after Glendale backed out of the proposal earlier this week.
âThe city of Warson Woods has been considering contracting our policing services with the city of Glendale. The ability to do so is no longer available to Warson Woods,â Warson Woods Mayor Larry Howe said in a statement on Monday, June 7.Â
Glendale City Administrator Benjamin DeClue said the city needed to fill a police officer position as soon as possible.
âDue to the need to move forward with filling our existing police officer vacancy, which has been held open for over nine months, Glendale has notified Warson Woods that it is rescinding the proposal,â DeClue said in a statement.Â
