Coyle Town officials are taking significant steps to enhance community safety and engagement, as discussed in a recent special meeting held on May 24, 2025. A key highlight was the initiation of a mutual aid contract with the Perkins Fire Department, aimed at improving emergency response capabilities, particularly for vehicle accidents on local highways. This collaboration marks a pivotal moment for Coyle, as it addresses longstanding issues with emergency services and fosters a spirit of cooperation between neighboring towns.

In addition to safety measures, the town is gearing up for its annual Fourth of July celebration, scheduled for July 5, featuring fireworks and community activities. The event is traditionally organized by the fire department, which will continue to receive financial support from the auxiliary, ensuring its success and community involvement.

The meeting also introduced innovative fundraising ideas to support local events. One proposal involves creating an online platform for selling event-themed merchandise, with proceeds benefiting both town events and local schools. This initiative aims to increase community participation and financial support for local activities, although concerns were raised about ensuring transparency regarding how much of the proceeds will directly support the events.

Financial updates revealed that the town's general fund currently stands at $80,188.73, with additional funds expected from recent grants. This financial stability will allow Coyle to continue investing in community projects and services.

As Coyle moves forward with these initiatives, the focus remains on enhancing public safety, fostering community spirit, and ensuring transparency in fundraising efforts, all of which are crucial for the town's growth and well-being.
