Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve the renewal of an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with Cochise College, Sierra Vista Police Department, and the Cochise County Sheriff's Office to continue operating the Southeast Arizona Law Enforcement Training Academy (SEALETA), effective July 22, 2024 through May 25, 2025.
Background:
Cochise College, the Sierra Vista Police Department and the Cochise County Sheriff's Office have been operating the Southeast Arizona Law Enforcement training Academy (SEALETA) since January 2019. This IGA will ensure we are able to continue to operate the academy for FY 24/25 with the intention of conducting two academy classes.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
If approved, the three entities will move forward with the two upcoming academy classes to train recruits to be Arizona 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:
Return one fully executed original IGA to the Cochise County Sheriff's Office, Sierra Vista Police Department and Cochise College.
Fiscal Impact
- Fiscal Year:
- FY 24/25
- Ongoing Costs? ($$$):
- approx. 20,000
- Source of Funding?:
- General Funds
Fiscal Impact & Funding Sources (if known):
The IGA with Cochise College does not cover all costs associated with the law enforcement academy. The Sheriff's Office uses our general fund budget to absorb about $20,000. The exact amount changes every year and is hard to capture but exists.
