<br />I have recently implemented a compulsory physical fitness program
<br />for the Indian River County Sheriff's Office. Many of my
<br />high-risk personnel, as often happens in law enforcement, are
<br />experiencing a weight problem.
<br />As you are aware, insurance premiums are on the rise and this was
<br />done in an attempt to ensure our rates remain at a level we can
<br />afford.
<br />I am requesting the Commission allow the transfer of $5,000 from
<br />the Seized Equipment 'Account, in order that we may purchase
<br />equipment to utilize for physical fitness. In addition, we wi;'
<br />be constructing a room between the existing Identification office
<br />and the Jail. This will be a capital improvement to our faeil'.ty,
<br />and an asset, should the facility at a later date be sold or
<br />ut,lized for additional county administrative business.
<br />Please find enclosed, a copy of the designed exercise room, as
<br />well as a photocopy of the type of equipment we are desiring to
<br />purchase.-

<br />Sheriff Dobeck informed the Board that he had talked
<br />the exercise equipment company into setting up their
<br />equipment and letting his men utilize it to see if it is
<br />what they need. They are under no obligation to that
<br />company, however, and the equipment can be returned.
