Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve the Modification to the Cooperative Law Enforcement Agreement 23-LE-11030500-048 between the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service and the Cochise County Sheriff's Office, in the amount of $13,000 for overtime, employer related expenses and fleet costs for Sheriff's deputies to patrol various recreation areas of the Coronado National Forest, effective January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024.
Background:
This agreement with the Forest Service is essentially an annual event. As in previous years, this year's agreement provides for the Forest Service to reimburse up to $13,000.00 in overtime, employer related expense ("ERE"), and mileage for deputies to patrol the various recreation areas of the Coronado National Forest, effective January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Upon approval, the agreement will be returned to the Forest Service and the Sheriff's Office will initiate patrols of the recreation areas in the Coronado National Forest.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
If not approved, the Sheriff's Office will not be able to utilize this funding to conduct patrols of the Forest's recreation areas, thus requiring the expenditure of general fund money to respond to any law enforcement calls originating in those areas.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Return both original signed copies of the agreement to the Sheriff's Office (Sgt. Tod Linendoll), so they can be forwarded to the Forest Service.
