Police service contacts generate revenue that the borough can use to fund the Cleona department.Ĭouncil president James O'Connor said the additional contracts help to keep police services affordable in the borough and that the department has better equipment and facilities and receives more training than in the past. When police coverage is being provided in another township there is always an officer on duty in Cleona and it is always the primary concern of the council to provide police service to Cleona residents, according to Springer.

Cleona resident Gale Kerkeslager preferred that the borough's police department be available to provide services just to Cleona residents. Some residents questioned why the Cleona Police Department is considering spreading out to another municipality. Union Township adjoins North Annville Township and Jonestown Borough, two other municipalities that receive services from the Cleona Police Department.

The township would provide a free office area for the patrol officer's use. Springer recommended that a full-time officer be hired if the council would agree to the contract. The township would like to have the borough's police department put in about 40 hours a week in varied shifts, according to Councilwoman Tricia Springer. Union Township officials are talking with Cleona Brough about providing contracted police services for the municipality and its residents.
