Subject:
Discussion and possible action to approve, by Order, the following budget amendment (line item transfer) within Grant funds. [Requested by Mike Villarreal, Constable Pct. 2]
Issue: Units 1548 and 1549 need an in-car camera system along with Body Worn Cameras and additional Red, White and Blue lights, for the units to be completely outfitted. These units were purchased with Operation StoneGarden (OPSG) Funds but do not have the cameras needed and the emergency lighting has low visibility.
Solution: Transfer funds from 2468-259700 2020 OPSG Fund balance to 2468-3180-001-470000 2020 OPSG Capital Outlay. These funds were obtained from auctioning retired units that were purchased with OPSG grants throughout the years.
Result: By transferring these funds from the OPSG Fund Balance account to the OPSG Capital Outlay account, they will be available to purchase the needed camera systems and lights.
