The City of Dunkirk will continue to provide certain police services to the Town of Dunkirk if the Common Council approves the renewal of the shared services agreement approved in August.

The city's Senior Center will receive the services of a senior aide through an agreement between the city, as host agency, Senior Service America, Inc. and the New York State Office for the Aging Senior Community Service Employment Program.
