Agenda Item Text:
Approve the Law Enforcement Safety Equipment Grant for $27,000, from the Arizona Attorney General's Office, for specifically delineated equipment needed by the Cochise County Sheriff's Office.
Background:
On July 23, 2020, the Cochise County Sheriff's Office applied for $27,000 Police Officer Safety Equipment Grant being offered by the Office of the Attorney General, Attorney General Mark Brnovich, State of Arizona. The grant requested a specific description of equipment that we were going to purchase. In late August 2020, Cochise County received an electronic credit for $27,000 to purchase this equipment for Cochise County Sheriff's Office. The grant application is attached.

If approved, the Cochise County Sheriff's Office will purchase the items identified on the grant equipment list.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
If not approved, the Cochise County Sheriff's Office will eventually need to identify funding sources to purchase the items on the grant equipment list.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Approve the electronic credit received pursuant to this grant, from the Attorney General's office for $27,000, allowing the Cochise County Sheriff's Office to move forward with purchasing the specific law enforcement safety equipment allowed according to this grant.
