CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
ARKANSAS
MEETING OF APRIL 7, 2015
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Greg Tabor, Chief of Police\�
DATE: March 20, 2015
SUBJECT: Purchase of Firearm Ammunition via State Contract
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the purchase of firearm ammunition from Gulf States
Distributors via state contract 4SP-05-SP-0032 in the amount of $59,709.49.
BACKGROUND:
The Fayetteville Police Department uses a large amount of firearm ammunition each
year for training and duty use. The weapon systems used by the Fayetteville Police
Department include .40 caliber pistols, .223/5.56 AR15 rifles, 12 gauge shotguns, and .308
rifles. Officers are required to qualify with their pistols four times a year. Certified operators of
the other weapon systems are required to qualify once a year. Firearms training includes pistol
and shotgun familiarization for new officers, certification training for the AR15 rifle, in-service
training for all officers bi-annually, Emergency Response Team (ERT) training monthly, ERT
marksman training monthly, officer refresher training for all officers annually, remediation
training when needed, and individual officer training when requested. Live fire training is
necessary in law enforcement to prepare'officers for situations they could encounter in the
performance of their duty at any given time.
DISCUSSION:
Ammunition is very difficult to acquire at this time. It could take more than a year to
receive ordered ammunition from the manufacturer. Due to the unpredictable availability of
ammunition, we request approval to make a one-time order in the dollar amount of $59,709.49
for the 2015 year. This purchase would be made on the State of Arkansas Ammunition
Contract number SP -05 -SP -0032.
BUDGETISTAFF IMPACT:
Funding is included in the approved 2015 Operating Budget. There is no staff impact
related to this purchase.
