Authorize the execution of a Cost Reimbursement Agreement with the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation for participation in an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force by temporarily assigning a Fort Worth police officer to the Task Force; 2. Authorize the Agreement to begin on October 1, 2012 and continue until September 30, 2013; and 3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Fund in the amount of $17,202.25 upon execution of the Agreement. DISCUSSION: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) formed the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF). Since 2006, federal funds have been appropriated to fund overtime to police officers for detection, investigation and prosecution of drug crimes against the United States. The Fort Worth Police Department currently dedicates one police officer on a part-time basis to this effort. The police officer assigned to OCDETF assists in investigations, strategic initiatives, and prosecutions as required by the FBI. The Police Department is reimbursed all overtime costs for participating on OCDETF. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations, execution of the Agreement and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Fund.
