The Forsyth Police Department received a grant to help purchase new radar units.
The grant came through The American Rescue Plan Act for the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Plan Peace Officers Grant, according to Forsyth Police Chief Pat Gray. The grant is a 50/50 grant meaning the grant covers 50% of the expected purchase and the City of Forsyth matches that grant amount.
“We have marked the grant money to purchase new radar units for our patrol cars, as ours are outdated and some (are) not functioning,” Gray told Branson Tri-Lakes News.
