3. Request from the Sheriffs Department for Approval of Budget Amendment
#43A to Appropriate Additional Funds ($60,000) to the Crime Lab and to Transfer
the Funding ($120,000 + $60,000) to the Sheriffs Department Rather than the Jail:
A letter from Sheriff Redmond stated that $120,000 from seized funds had recently
been approved for a crime lab at the Hwy. 21 site. The letter continued by saying the
department now wanted to place the lab in the basement of the Bondurant Bldg. Sheriff
Redmond requested that the previous $120,000 plus an additional $60,000 (seized
funds) be used for the construction of a modular addition to the Sheriff's building. (The
building would house a Domestic Violence Investigation Unit, expansion of the records
division, the Reverse 911 System, video enhancement/equipment and personnel. A
"breezeway" will connect the new modular, wood -frame unit to the sheriff's building.)

with unspecified interest over a six year period and an unspecified startup date. She
said a settlement agreement had been offered through Burt Wolff Tax Solutions in the
