SUBJECT: Request ordinance appropriating drug seizure funds.
In April 2010, the Alaska State Troopers, Alaska Bureau of Alcohol and Drug
Enforcement (ABADE) made an Equitable Sharing payment in the amount of $111.94 to
the Kenai Police Department. These funds were related to asset forfeitures from two
Kenai Peninsula defendants on a 2008 criminal case.
Per the 2009, U.S. Department of Justice Equitable Sharing Guide, equitable sharing
funds used by law enforcement shall be used for law enforcement purposes only.
Permissible uses of the funds include, but are not limited to, law enforcement
investigations, training, and equipment. We are permitted to purchase equipment which
is used by law enforcement personnel that supports law enforcement activities.
I am requesting an ordinance to appropriate these funds to the General Fund, Police
Small Tools to help pay for police investigative equipment. The police department
intends combine this check with previous asset forfeiture funds to purchase digital
cameras and digital camera accessories.
