SUMMARY:
The Pensacola Police Department (PPD) is requesting $19,742.80 from the federal forfeiture monies that are held in the LETF fund established by the City of Pensacola as a non-major special revenue fund. The City of Pensacola LETF account consists of both state and federal forfeiture monies held in one accounting fund. Different rules apply to the uses of federal and state forfeiture monies.
The requested amount of $19,742.80 is to use as matching funds for a $19,742.80 grant from the Patrick Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership to purchase 44 bulletproof vests for PPD officers. Some of the current vests issued to officers have already reached their five-year expiration date while others will soon be expiring. In addition, more vests need to be purchased for new officers.
This is a permissible use of federal forfeiture funds in accordance with the United States Department of Justice Guide to Equitable Sharing.
