SUBJECT: Request ordinance appropriating reimbursement funds from the
State of Alaska for sexual assault examinations
The Alaska State Troopers have acquired federal grant funds to assist municipal police
departments with the payment of the forensic portion of Sexual Assault (SART) exams.
The grant funding requires that police departments make payment for the SART exams
directly to the provider (CPH) and then AST will reimburse the agency.
During FY11, the State of Alaska has reimbursed the City of Kenai for several SART
exams totaling $3,519.20. These reimbursements have been deposited into the City of
Kenai General Fund.
The Police Professional Services account has $2,428.62 remaining. The Police
Department still needs to pay for pre employment medical, psychological, and drug
screen examinations for two potential new hires. Those examinations will cost
approximately $3,000 total and will be paid for out of Police Professional Services. It is
inevitable that without an appropriation the Professional Services account will be
depleted to a negative dollar amount. SART exams, investigative impounds, and pre-
employment screenings are all paid out of this account.
I am requesting an ordinance to appropriate $3,519.20 to the General Fund, Police
Professional Services Account for FY11 SART exam reimbursements from the State of
Alaska.
