The Hollister City Council on Monday approved an agreement between the city and the Hollister Unified School District to assign an additional police officer to serve as a school resource officer at district schools. The Hollister Police Department in late 2014 received a federal grant to help pay for the joint venture.
The new officer will cost just over $18,000 for the rest of this fiscal year and then $60,353 in fiscal year 2015-15; $62,453 in 2016-17 and approximately $72,000 in 2017-18.
