WEST CITY - West City trustees Monday agreed to provide the village police department with the Law Enforcement Agency Data System, or LEADS.
The computerized system, maintained by state police, will give the police department immediate access to state and national data including information compiled by other law enforcement agencies in the state, the Illinois Secretary of State and the National Crime Information Center.
Village police currently obtain such information through the Franklin County Sheriff's Department dispatch center, West City Police Chief Steve Mumbower said.
The service and related technology will cost approximately $870 per month, he said, and will be online within 90 days.
