The School District agrees to compensate the City of Redwood City $36,657.31 for the year 2003-2004 <br /> and $55r978.57 for the year 2004-2005 for these services. <br /> Background <br /> Since the fall of 2000, the Redwood City Police Department has, pursuant to contract, provided a School <br /> Resource Officer full-time at Sequoia High School. The School Resource Officer has been involved in a <br /> variety of activities that enhance the safety on campus and provide a positive police presence for the students <br /> and staff. The school staff and teachers are able to utilize the officer daily for resolving any issues that arise <br /> ith students. The officer also helps to coordinate sporting events and attends other school functions that <br /> allow for interaction with students in a positive manner. The overall quality of life for students and teachers <br /> has been improved with a safer school environment. <br /> The School District has requested an officer for the 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 school years. The contract <br /> covers the period from September 2, 2003 through June 17, 2005. The costs for the services are $73,314.63 <br /> for 2003-2004 and $111,957.14 for 2004-2005. By mutual agreement, the Sequoia Union High School District <br /> will pay for half of the officer's salaries. The School District has elected to make payments of $36,657.31 for <br /> 2003-2004 and $55,978.57 for 2004-2005. Existing police personnel resources are being utilized to provide <br /> this service. The officer position already exists in the police department budget. <br /> Alternative <br /> Council could decline to enter the contract, and a regularly scheduled patrol officer would attend to all calls for <br /> service associated with the high school. The extra services would cease. <br /> Fiscal Impact <br /> The School District has agreed to pay $36,657.31 and $55,978.57 into the City of Redwood City general fund. <br /> �� �� � <br /> ,�� � � � <br /> Brian G.
