RECOMMENDED ACTION:
City Council to adopt Resolution No. 2014-255 authorizing the Administrative Services Director to
approve and appropriate police state asset forfeiture funds for the purchase of police canine.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The Police Department maintains four canines as part of their patrol force. One dog is assigned to each of
the four patrol shifts, providing officers with the searching and apprehension support a canine provides.
K-9 "Maverick" is experiencing a quick decline in his health and performance, sooner than was predicted.
As a result, the police department needs to purchase a new canine mid-year. Historically, the purchase of
a new canine is planned within the budget cycle and asset forfeiture funds are set aside for the purchase.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is approximately a $37,770 available cash balance in the police state asset forfeiture fund after
taking into account current year budgeted expenditures . The cost of a new canine is $9,504. Setting
aside an additional $496 for miscellaneous accessories associated with the new dog brings the total to
$10,000. Dogs have historically been purchased through grant or asset forfeiture funds. They have not
been purchased via the General Fund, so use of asset forfeiture is allowable (no supplanting).
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 20165 and CEQA Guideline section 15738, this does not
constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA and therefore does not require an environmental
review.
EXHIBITS:
1. Resolution No. 2014-255 authorizing the Administrative Services Director to approve and
appropriate $10,000 in police state asset forfeiture funds for the purchase of police canine.
2. Quote from Man K-9 for new canine.
