REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF BUDGET AMENDMENT N5 WHICH WILL (1)
RECOGNISE A GRANT FROM THE DEPT. OF CRIME CONTROL & PUBLIC SAFETY
(LIVESCAN/A.F.1.8) (2) APPROPRIATE THE MATCHING SHARE (3)
APPROPRIATE THE EXPENDITURES AND (4) APPROPRIATE $9,800 OF SEIZED
FUNDS TO PURCHASE A CANINE TO REPLACE K-9 CORA: Blumenstein
reminded the group that the Dept. of Crime Control & Public Safety
had awarded the sheriff's dept. a grant in the amount of $77,100.
The grant, to be used for the LIVESCAN/A.F.I.S. project, requires
$25,700 in matching funds. Previously, the sheriff's dept. advised
it would use a portion of seized funds for the matching share.
In addition, $9,800 is requested from seized funds for the
purchase of a new canine. The current dog, used by the sheriff's
dept., would be replaced due to injuries sustained earlier this
year. The injuries are severe enough to warrant a replacement. K-
9 Cora will then be declared surplus property. There are
indications that insurance will reimburse the County for the
injured animal.
MOTION by Commissioner Stewart to approve Budget Amendment $5,
as referenced above, and to declare K-9 Cora surplus property.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
