Re: Approval of a Budget Adjustment for Reimbursement of Expenses from the
U. S. Marshal Service
Background
In October 2007, the Fayetteville Police Department joined nine other agencies including
the U.S. Marshals Service to form the Northwest Arkansas Sex Offender and Violent Crime Task
Force. We assigned one full time investigator and one part time investigator to participate in
task force investigations. There is another task force working with the U.S. Marshal Service
Western District, the River Valley Task Force in Fort Smith. As a result of the task force's
activities, U.S. Marshal Richard O'Connell has asset forfeiture funds to distribute to the local
task forces and local agencies. Mr. O'Connell also has federal funds that are meant to support
local agencies and local task forces.
Discussion
In July 2009, the U. S. Marshal Service released $35,000 of these funds for the
Fayetteville Police Department and the U.S. Marshal's western district task forces for the
purchase of computer equipment. These laptops, desktops and printers will be purchased by the
Fayetteville Police Department and distributed to the task forces while retaining laptops for our
Criminal Investigations Unit. These purchases will improve efficiencies for both the Western
District Task Forces and the Fayetteville Criminal Investigations Division.
Recommendation
Staff recommends acceptance of these reimbursement funds and approval of a budget
adjustment in the amount of $35,000.
Budget Impact
None. This is a reimbursement of expenses incurred.
