The Hastings Police Department is an active participant in the Dakota County Drug Task Force (DCDTF)
through a Joint Powers Agreement. This group, consisting of officers from thirteen (13) Dakota County
jurisdictions, is responsible for the enforcement of controlled substance laws throughout this county.
Not only do we contribute a full-time Hastings Police Officer to the team, we also provide an
Administrative Staff Person through a separate contract that commenced on April 21, 2011. Through
that contract, the DCDTF reimburses the City of Hastings for all costs the City incurs relating to the
employment of the Employee, including salary and benefits. The DCDTF wishes to extend the current
contract for services through December 31, 2026 with approval of the attached amended JPA. This
