Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve Governor's Office of Homeland Security (GOHS) Contract 2016-CIOT-020, providing the Cochise County Sheriff's Office with $4,000 to cover overtime expenses as well as employee related expenses to participate in the two week "Buckle Up Arizona... It's the Law" program.
Background:
As part of the National Click It or Ticket Program, Arizona is participating in a statewide campaign designed to enforce seat belt and child restraint laws. Statistics have shown that the probability of being critically injured in a motor vehicle crash goes up significantly when occupants are not wearing the proper restraints. As a part of the Governor's Office of Highway Safety campaigns, the Sheriff's Office, as well as other agencies throughout the state, are provided this funding to participate in the two week campaign. The campaign runs from 23 May through 5 June. Acceptance of these funds as well as participation in the campaign is expected by the Governor's Office as a part of their overall support of enforcement and education campaigns to reduce injuries and fatalities from impaired, distracted and aggressive driving. This contract has been approved as to form by the County Attorney's Office.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Conduct enforcement details during this two week period in support of the Governor's Office of Highway Safety efforts. The results of these details will be reported to the Governor's Office.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
The Sheriff's Office will not have the funds to participate in this campaign unless they are paid out of the general fund.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Please approve and sign both copies of the contract so that it can be sent back to Governor's Office for final approval.
