There is a lot of context that is missing from this story.
On one end, the board could be in the right, if you only have a township of a couple dozen, you don’t exactly need a police force of 10 people if you are only getting one or two calls, maybe, a day.
That being said, there is a concern here that this will effect response time for emergencies. Which is a valid concern, for emergency services. How much a concern for police is just where more context is needed
Of course this is all happening with the shadow of doubt to this story that makes it seem like there were prior agreements before one of the board members passed away.
It’s not all that uncommon for villages and towns to disband their police department and rely instead on county police.
My guess is it all comes down to money.

How long do you think it’ll take them to shoot my dog now?
And that’s the thing. These cops resigned. Guess where they’re headed? A nearby police agency of some kind. This makes no difference.
