MEMORANDUM

The Honorable Mayor and City Commission

RE:
Approval to Expend Partial Forfeiture (DOJ) Funds for the
purchase of one police vehicle and associated equipment, in an
amount not to exceed $23,784.00
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the expenditure of partial
Federal (DOJ) Forfeiture Funds, previously awarded to the Police Department as
the result of investigative participation in forfeiture and seizure cases. These
funds are permissible by law to be spent for the purchases of police equipment,
staffing resources and other law enforcement activities. It is requested that we be
permitted to utilize up to $23,784.00 of said funds on deposit for such purpose.
REASONS:
The Sunny Isles Beach Police Department actively participates in an FBI / HIDTA
(High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area) Initiative Group that conducts numerous
ongoing proactive investigations and has a need for the attached listed
equipment.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
One of the benefits of participating in and providing personnel into high intensity
narcotics investigations is the sharing of confiscated proceeds for the
enhancement of law enforcement.
In addition to the budgeted police vehicles being purchased this year, the police
department is also in need of an unmarked police vehicle to be utilized by the
Investigative Services Division.
In order to assure adequate and reliable equipment, it is requested that we be
