HomeMy WebLinkAboutC.054.93011_0533 (2)5. Request from the Sheriffs Department for Approval of the Following Two
Requests: During the briefing session, Chief Deputy Dowdle described the following
requests.
A. Permission to Transfer $47,000.00 from Seized Funds for a Sally Port
Structure at the Jail Annex on Hwy. 21 and a Structure for the Mobile Command
Unit Vehicle: Dowdle said an overhead covering or structure was needed when
transporting food into the Jail Annex on Highway 21, along with the escorting of
inmates in -and -out of the facility. He said a structure was also needed to house the
new mobile command unit. Budget Amendment #30 for $47,000 (seized funds) will
be used for the structures.
(Note: Dowdle said the jail annex should be ready to occupy inmates by mid-
February of this year.)
B. Request for the Establishment of an Additional School Resource Officer
with Funding for the Position to be Received from the Iredell-Statesville School
System: Dowdle said his department had been funding a part-time officer at West
Middle School since the 2004-05 school year opening. He said the school system
had now agreed to fund a full-time officer, due to the personnel hardship occurring
at the sheriffs department; however, the vehicle, equipment, and necessary supplies
would not be funded. Dowdle said the school system had agreed to pay for an
officer through the end of this school year, plus the costs already incurred.
During the briefing session, Finance Director Blumenstein said federal funds
were used during the summer months for specialized School Resource Officer
training.
Budget Amendment #31 for $21,030 will be used for this request that will
appropriate funds for an additional School Resource Officer to be placed at West
Middle School through the end of this fiscal year with the Iredell-Statesville Schools
to provide the funding. (The $21,030 will be used for salary, FICA, health
insurance, retirement & 401(K), other insurance, telephone, training and uniforms.)
