CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
FROM: Greg Tabor, Chief of PoliceNZ§�,
DATE: September 8, 2015
SUBJECT: 2015 Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Program Award
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends acceptance of a 50% matching grant award from the 2015 Bulletproof
Vest Partnership (BVP) Grant Program for the replacement of fifteen (15) body armor vests for
our police officers and approval of a budget adjustment in the amount of $6,056 to recognize
grant funding. Matching funds in the amount of $6,056 are budgeted within Police Bulletproof
Vests (project #13011-1) of the Capital Improvements Program.
BACKGROUND:
The BVP, created by the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Act of 1998, is a unique
U.S. Department of Justice initiative designed to provide a critical resource to state and local
law enforcement. Since 1998, the Fayetteville Police Department has obtained grant funding in
excess of $160,000 for the purchase of body armor vests through this partnership. The BVP
program provides an important component to the continuing health and welfare of our police
officers. Each body armor vest has a guaranteed life of five years. All state-of-the-art body
armor is custom made to the exact specifications of the wearer. This ensures all officers have
our required level of protection.
DISCUSSION:
The total cost to replace fifteen (15) body armor vests is $12,112. This grant funding by
BVP will provide reimbursement of 50% (or $6,056) of the City's expenses for the replacement
of body armor vests for our police officers. The Police Department has planned for this grant
matching requirement as evidenced by budgeted funds in the Capital Improvements Program's
Police Bulletproof Vests (#13011-1) project.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
The City must match 50% (or $6,056) of the total projected cost of $12,112. Currently,
matching funds are budgeted in the Capital Improvements Program's Police Bulletproof Vests
(#13011-1) project. There is no staffing impact related to this grant application.
