Re: Request for Ordinance Appropriating $938.08 into Police Operating
Since July 1, 2009, Officer Casey Hershberger has worked with the AST Bureau of
Highway Patrol as part of a multi- jurisdictional partnership aimed at reducing fatal and
major injury crashes in Alaska.
The Bureau of Highway Patrol (BHP) has agreed to reimburse the City of Kenai for the
first year equipment costs for the new officer who was hired to replace Officer
Hcrshberger while he temporarily works with the BHP. A grant from the Alaska
Highway Safety Office is the source of the reimbursement funding.
Equipment costs for the new officer in July of 2009 totaled $938.08. These costs
included a ballistic protective vest and a winter parka. Both expenses were paid out of the
police operating account.
Since reimbursement checks from the State of Alaska are deposited into the City of Kenai
general fund, 1 am requesting an ordinance to appropriate $938.08 back into the police
operating account.
