MEMORANDUM
To: City Commission, City Manager and Mayor Date: November 23, 1999
of Sunny Isles Beach
From"`tFred Maas, Chief of Police Subject: Partial Expenditures of
Forfeiture Funds
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Commission approve by resolution, the partial expenditure of
forfeiture funds, previously awarded to the Police Department as the result of investigative
participation in forfeiture and seizure cases. These funds are law permissible to be spent for
purchases of police equipment and other related law enforcement activities. It is recommended
that we be permitted to utilize $62,712.17 of said funds on deposit for such purposes.
Reasons:
The benefits of participating and providing personnel into high intensity drug trafficking
investigation sections is the sharing of confiscated proceeds for the enhancement of law
enforcement agencies including new or additional equipment. This is designated so as not to
impact so greatly upon the financial concerns and budget of the city. All of the attached and
listed items are justifiably needed for officers performance of their duties and the benefit derived
by the residents of the City of Sunny Isles Beach.
Additional Information:
To date, the City of Sunny Isles Beach Police Department has been awarded more than
$100,000.00 in confiscated funds. Certain needs exist on behalf of the department whereby the
purchase of suggested equipment will accomplish those needs. Such items and equipment are
attached for your review:
Certification:
I, Fred Maas, certify that pursuant to Florida State Statute 932.0755 section (4) (a) and (4) (b),
the below listed items meet the guidelines of purchase for; crime prevention, safe neighborhood,
drug abuse education, or other law enforcement purposes which include defraying the costs of
protracted or complex investigations, and providing additional equipment.
