At last Wednesday’s meeting of Commissioners Court, Grimes County Constable Precinct 1, Dale Schaper asked the court to consider replacing his patrol unit, which was involved in a wreck earlier this month.
Schaper said that one issue is that a lot of the emergency equipment from the 2020 model patrol unit is not compatible with new units.
The court voted unanimously to purchase the new patrol unit with contingency funds and to replace the funds once the insurance claim is paid in the amount of $59,150.25.
