School Resource Officer Agreement for the City of Manitowoc and the

compensate the School Resource Officer (SRO) based on the actual  
mileage traveled, rather than a fixed rate. Additionally, the updated  
agreement excludes D.A.R.E. from the SRO's responsibilities, as the  
MPSD has chosen to eliminate it from its curriculum.
