Russo <br /> City Manager <br /> Hans onmot Recommendation. <br /> City Attorney <br /> Jane A. Hines It is recommended that the City Commission approve the expenditure of partial <br /> City Clerk forfeiture funds, previously awarded to the Police Department as the results of <br /> investigative participation in forfeiture and seizure cases. These funds are <br /> permissible by law to be spent for purchases of police equipment and other law <br /> enforcement activities. It is requested that we be permitted to utilize $25,000.00 of <br /> said funds on deposit for such purpose. <br /> Reason. <br /> One of the benefits of participating in and providing personnel into high intensity <br /> narcotics investigations is the sharing of confiscated proceeds for the enhancement <br /> of law enforcement. All of the attached and listed items are authorized expenditures <br /> and are designed towards charitable and crime prevention programs, enhancement <br /> of law enforcement equipment as well as legal costs associated with the asset <br /> forfeiture process. <br /> Additional Information. <br /> To date, the City of Sunny Isles Beach Police Department has been awarded <br /> additional monies in confiscated funds. Certain needs exist on behalf of the <br /> department whereby the agency participates in and contributes to crime prevention <br /> programs as well as the enhancement of our equipment. <br /> Agenda Item 10I <br /> Date I I 17 -o5 <br />
