<br />REPORT <br /> <br />6.28 <br />Page 1 <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />, '. From the Citv Manager <br /> <br />September 25, 2006 <br /> <br />Subject <br />2006-2007 Budget Amendment for Police Department Forfeiture Fund. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />It is recommended that Council adopt a resolution approving the appropriation of $40,000 <br />within the Police Forfeitures Fund. <br /> <br />Background <br />The Police Department, in conjunction with the San Mateo County District Attorney's Office <br />and other law enforcement agencies within San Mateo County are awarded financial <br />assets seized from those convicted of crimes such as the possession of narcotics for sale. <br />These seized assets are apportioned amongst those agencies participating in the arrest <br />and conviction of these suspects and monies seized may only be used to support law <br />enforcement related activities. The apportioned monies allotted to the Police Department <br />were recorded as revenue within the Police Forfeitures Fund upon receipt and have not <br />been appropriated for expenditure. The Police Department intends to expend the <br />appropriated funds on law enforcement related equipment, including the replacement of <br />portable radios and the replacement of video surveillance recording devices for undercover <br />operations. <br /> <br />Alternative <br />Council could choose not to authorize the appropriation of these funds where they would <br />remain in the Police Forfeitures Fund unappropriated fund balance. <br /> <br />Fiscal Impact <br />Adoption of this resolution will decrease the unappropriated fund balance in the Police <br />Forfeitures Fund. <br /> <br />.,....
