RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1. Increase estimated receipts in General Fund O1, Index Code 055012,
Miscellaneous Income, earned from restitution payments, sales and
auctions, and recoveries of drug-related cash and equipment,
2. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriations ordinance increasing esti-
mated receipts in the General Fund O1 in the amount of $2,000 and
increasing appropriations in the General Fund O1, Police Department
Patrol Division, Account Number 35-31-00, by the same amount from
increased revenues, and
3. Authorize the use of $2,000 to purchase bicycles and necessary equipment
to be used solely for the investigation of any alleged violations of the
criminal laws of this state.
DISCUSSION
-'The Police Department will use these funds to purchase four bicycles, special
clothing and safety equipment. The bicycles will make it possible to expand
the area of coverage while at the same time providing close personal contact
with the community. Officers on bicycles can cover approximately five times
the area foot beat officers can cover without losing any effectiveness. The
Bicycle Patrol concept has resulted in several arrests and $4,000 in money
confiscated for seizure. The money spent will be returned to the fund
through these and other seizures.
FINANCING
Upon adoption of the supplemental appropriation ordinance, sufficient funds
will be available in General Fund O1, Account No. 35-31-00, Police Department.
Expenditures will be made from Index Code 263996.
