the police helicopters. This equipment will replace monitors that were purchased in the 1980's with the
first infrared units which are no longer repairable. This upgrade will also integrate Geographic
Information System (GIS) data for aircraft navigation. All new equipment will integrate with planned
Forward-Looking Infrared equipment purchases in the future.

The Finance Director certifies that upon adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be
available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Special Trust Fund.
