DATE: December 5, 2006
TO: Mary J. Alvord, City Manager
FROM:

Thomas Hoefel, Chief of Police

SUBJECT:

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2006-2007 BUDGET FOR THE PURPOSE OF RECEIVING AND APPROPRIATING BULLETPROOF VEST GRANT PROGRAM FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,496.60 FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, BUREAU OF JUSTICE ASSISTANCE


 

Purpose:

 

To request City Council approval of a proposed resolution that authorizes the City Manager to accept a $5,496.60 grant from the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), Bureau of Justice Assistance, for the Police Department Bulletproof Vest Program and amend the Fiscal Year 2006-07 budget by appropriating funds.

 

Background/Analysis:

 

The City of Burbank has participated in this program since 1999 and has received approximately $36,000 to help offset the cost of safety vests.  On February 24, 2006, the Bureau of Justice Assistance requested that agencies desiring to receive bulletproof vest funding, submit a grant proposal.  An application was filed and on October 20, 2006, the Burbank Police Department was notified that the application had been approved.

 

Fiscal Impact:

 

This is a reimbursement grant.  The revenue anticipated from the grant will help to defray a portion of the general fund cost for safety equipment.  Accepting the grant funds amends the City�s budget by increasing Fund 121�s revenue estimate by $5,496.60, and appropriates that sum from account 121-ND000-48010-1083 (Bulletproof Vests Grant) to account Number 121-PD91B-70011-0000-15248 (Bulletproof Vest Grant).

 

Recommendation:

 

Staff recommends City Council adoption of a proposed resolution entitled:

 

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2006-2007 BUDGET FOR THE PURPOSE OF RECEIVING AND APPROPRIATING BULLETPROOF VEST GRANT PROGRAM FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,496.60 FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, BUREAU OF JUSTICE ASSISTANCE.
