Matching funds in the amount of $21,200 are budgeted within Police Ballistic Protection (#13011-1) project 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 $180,000 for the purchase of body armor vests through this partnership. The BVP program provides a vital 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 anticipated cost to replace expiring body armor vests and outfit new officers is projected to be $42,400. This grant funding by BVP will provide total reimbursement of $21,200 of the City's expenses for the purchase of new body armor vests. The Police Department has planned for this grant matching requirement as evidenced by budgeted funds in the Capital Improvements Program's Police Ballistic Protection (#13011-1) project. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: The City must match $21,200 of the total projected cost of $42,400. Currently, matching funds are budgeted in the Capital Improvements Program's Police Ballistic Protection (#13011- 1) project. There is no staffing impact related to this grant award.
