Pursuant to the provisions of N.J.S.A. 40A:14-156, the governing
body of the Borough of Mount Ephraim hereby agrees to the provision
of reciprocal police assistance, as hereinafter prescribed, with those
municipal corporations in Camden County and in those counties contiguous
to Camden County which demonstrate their reciprocity by their enactment
of this article.
It is hereby expressly provided that, upon committing such reciprocal
police assistance as hereinafter prescribed, no payment shall be required
to be made by the assisted municipality to the municipality providing
such assistance. This exclusion will include, but is not necessarily
limited to, police salaries, cost of automobiles or motorcycles, use
of police dogs and/or the cost of other equipment or expenses incurred
by providing such assistance. This provision of nonpayment is in lieu
of those rates of pay and rentals set forth in N.J.S.A. 40A:14-156
and as required by law.
Any of the concurring parties may withdraw from and terminate
their part in this agreement at the end of any calendar year, provided
that notice of such intention to terminate shall be given no later
than November 1 of each year to each participant herein. Otherwise,
the agreement shall remain in force on a yearly basis.
