Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) among Cochise College, Sierra Vista Police Department, and the Cochise County Sheriff's Office to establish the Southeastern Arizona Law Enforcement Training Academy (SEALETA).

Background:

The 3 mentioned parties have already completed one class for the academy and this IGA will ensure that they offer two academies for FY 2019-2020: July 29, 2019 to December 16, 2019 and January 13, 2020 to May 11, 2020.

 

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

If approved, the three entities will move forward with the 19 week academy to train recruits to be AZPOST certified law enforcement officers. 

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

It will be detrimental to local law enforcement agencies regarding the hiring and training of potential officers. It would also force local agencies to seek outside training academies for their officers at a greater cost to the respective agency.  

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Please route to agencies to obtain signatures and send fully executed originals once finalized.
