The East Grand Forks City Council unanimously voted to accept ending the SRO contract between the East Grand Forks Police department and school district. Mayor Steve Gander called it ‘temporary’, adding: “When the Minnesota legislature sees the negative outcome of its recent action and restores appropriate use of force to SRO’s, we will be able to reinstate the memorandum.”

Two patrol officers will still be alternating patrols at all school buildings, including private schools.
