Information

Request/Subject

Governor's Office of Highway Safety FY2015 Speed Enforcement Grant Application

Background Information

The Gila County Sheriff's deputies are working with outdated and non serviceable speed enforcement equipment. In order for the deputies to effectively do speed enforcement this equipment needs to be replaced. Due to the short notice to submit a grant application, the Gila County Sheriff's Office electronically submitted the FY2015 Speed Enforcement Grant Application on February 28, 2014.

Evaluation

If a grant is awarded to the Gila County Sheriff's Office, the acquisition and use of these radars will greatly enhance the ability of the Sheriff's Office Deputies in the field to effectively enforce speed details and speed enforcement during their patrol duties.

Conclusion

The Gila County Sheriff's Office is requesting assistance from the Governor's Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) to purchase (10) Golden Eagle II radars for a total amount of $21,899.26.

Recommendation

Gila County Sheriff J. Adam Shepherd recommends that the Board of Supervisor's ratify approval of the electronic submission of a grant application for speed enforcement to the Governor's Office of Highway Safety in the amount of $21,899.26.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to ratify the Sheriff's Office electronic submission of a Grant Application for speed enforcement to the Governor's Office of Highway Safety in the amount of $21,899.26. (Keith Thompson)
