ATTACHMENTS: Budget Worksheet APPROVED BY: Oa]
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve the expenditure of $1099.99 from the
Police Equipment Fund for the purchase of body armor for one officer.
ISSUE
The Police Equipment Fund has been set up for the purpose of accepting donations, monies received
from some forfeiture and reimbursement grant funds for specific purchases.
BACKGROUND
Both the State of Minnesota and the federal government have reimbursement programs for the purchase
of body armor for law enforcement officers. When the City purchases body armor for police officers a
request for reimbursement is sent to both programs for reimbursement. Funds received through the
reimbursement program are put into the Police Equipment Fund and used to purchase additional body
armor when needed. Donated funds to the Equipment Fund are used to pay the balance of the cost not
covered by the two reimbursement programs.
Body armor was purchased recently for a new officer. Body armor is replaced based upon the
manufacturer's recommended schedule and the approved replacement schedule of the two reimbursement
programs.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the expenditure of $1099.99 from the Police Equipment Fund for
the purpose of purchasing body armor for this officer.
