Federal <br />Fiscal year 94-95: 24,267.24 <br />County Total <br />14,679.09 38,946.33 <br />We welcome the opportunity to bring Federal dollars to Indian River County and <br />the benefits such funding brings our citizens. The Board of County Commissioners <br />has been very supportive of our past efforts in community policing. We look <br />forward to a continuation of this partnership and once again ask for your <br />continued commitment and support of the community. I would appreciate your <br />signing the attached Letter of Intent to Participate. <br />Sincerely, <br />e. <br />Gary C. Wheeler, Sheriff <br />Commissioner Adams inquired about the funding for the matching <br />grant, and John Gisler, director of Administration for the <br />Sheriff's Department, believed this cost would be coming out of the <br />insurance account. He explained that we received the grant <br />application information just recently, informing us that there are <br />grant funds for an additional officer if we apply. <br />Administrator Chandler advised that this is a new grant and we <br />just received information on it. Our match of $14,000 would have <br />to come out of the general fund contingencies and he has a real <br />concern about reducing those contingencies any further because we <br />are only in our second month of the fiscal year. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Macht, the Board, by a 3-1 vote <br />(Commissioner Eggert being absent and Commissioner <br />Bird dissenting) denied participation due to lack of <br />funding. <br />SESQUICENTENNIAL COORDINATING CONUM=E <br />The Board reviewed a letter of October 20, 1994: <br />NOVEMBER 22, 1994 36 <br />
