Agenda Item Text:
Approve grant agreement 2016-DJ-BX-0805 between Cochise County and the US Department of Justice for the purchase of equipment related to the mission of the Southeast Arizona Border Region Enforcement (SABRE) Team in the amount of $22,450 from October 1, 2015 through September 30, 2017.
Background:
The Sheriff's Office has a contract for funding to purchase additional equipment by the Department of Justice. The funding will allow for the purchasing of additional cameras/sensors. These items will primarily be deployed in areas on and/or near the border to assist the Sheriff’s Office Southeastern Arizona Border Region Enforcement Team (SABRE) in identifying and deterring illegal immigrant and drug smuggling into the United States, specifically for the Sheriff's Office into Cochise County. The funding allows the Sheriff's Office to purchase this equipment the Sheriff's Office would otherwise not be able to gain/gather through other funding sources.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
If approved, the Sheriff's Office will purchase the abovementioned equipment that will be utilized in Sheriff’s Office operations.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
If not approved, the Sheriff's Office will lose out on the purchasing of the abovementioned equipment this office would otherwise not be able to obtain if it were not for this grant/funding source
