SALINEVILLE With problems finding additional manpower, Police Chief Matt Devlin asked for permission for overtime for the current police officers and himself.
Devlin told village council on Monday after receiving the $10,000 from the Edward Bryne Memorial Justice Assistance grant, the department has been attempting to hire additional officers. The grant is to give the department assistance to cover more shifts, especially late at night, to curtail crime and drug use within the village.
However, Devlin said they have been actively looking, but thus far unsuccessful in finding additional police officers, which will make it impossible to use the money at the current staffing levels unless the police officers can work additional shifts. Other departments in the area are also currently having difficulty hiring.
