APPROPRIATIONS AUTHORIZATION: It is the recommendation of your

By Commissioner Mallette: That the Report of the Committee be

Approved.
FROM: COURTS & PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE -- 2.2 JUNE 26, 2001
Your committee considered communication no. 6-26-25 from Sheriff
Charles L. Brown asking to accept a $3,606 award from the Bureau
of Justice to offset the cost of replacing 15 bullet proof vests.
The Sheriff informed us that bullet proof vests have a
manufactured life expectancy of about five years, after which they
should be replaced. The cost of each vest is $720.00 for a total
of $10,800. The grant will cover the cost of 5 vests. The
balance of $7,194 for the remaining 10 vests will be paid with
funds set aside for this purpose.
It is our recommendation that the Sheriff Department be authorized
to accept the grant from the Bureau of Justice to purchase 5
bullet proof vests with 10 to be paid for with funds in the
Sheriff's budget; further, that the proper County officials be
authorized and directed to amend the budget and execute the
necessary documents on behalf of the County, subject to review by
the Controller as to substance and Counsel as to legal form.
Respectfully submitted,
