The Town of Evans and Village of Angola have already received some return on their investment in consolidating police forces.
The Town of Evans absorbed Angola's police department last summer. Now it has received a $125,772 state grant to help with the costs.
"As you go through this, you hear people talking about consolidation," said Evans Supervisor Francis Pordum. "Well, it's happening here."
Pordum, who took office in January, credited previous Town Boards and administrations for making the consolidation a reality.
