Weber School District is finalizing a new five-year interlocal agreement with multiple law enforcement agencies for school resource officer (SRO) services, as the current agreement expires June 30, 2026. The tentative framework standardizes contracts and cost formulas, moves Snowcrest Jr. High’s SRO from half-time to full-time, and commits the district to funding 16 full-time SRO positions with phased cost increases to 100% district reimbursement by 2030–2031. The projected cost for 2026–2027 is approximately 1466266, an increase of 7.26% over the prior year, with per-officer costs ranging from about 83810 to 103109 and further annual salary/benefit adjustments of 3–7%. Additional details on SRO roles, responsibilities, reporting, and accountability are still to be negotiated, and the interlocal agreements must be updated and approved by both the district board and each participating entity, with a target for board approval on August 4, 2026. This creates a multi-year funding and policy framework where vendors in security services, training, incident reporting systems, and accountability/analytics tools can align offerings to support SRO program expectations, performance measurement, and compliance needs across multiple agencies.
