U <br />Sandy Shields, Planning & Research Unit of Sheriff's Office, described how this <br />program had been started in December 1997 when the Board accepted the 1997 Block Grant <br />monies, totaling $89,249. One of the conditions of the grant is to conduct a public hearing <br />at which time the plan for use of the funds is presented. That is the purpose of today's <br />agenda item. <br />Ms. Shields explained that in 1996 the Sheriff's Office began a pilot project of <br />bringing mobile computing to field officers. Another grant was used to fund the <br />infrastructure necessary. This $89,249 will be used to actually put 10 mobile computing <br />units into the vehicles of the field training officers. When accomplished, information and <br />technology will be readily available to officers in the field. This project is planned to <br />progress over the next 2-3 years as funding allows and as additional Block Grant money is <br />sought. Various new applications will be added during that period, such as silent <br />dispatching, records' data bases, mug shots, warrants and so forth, which will be accessible <br />by the officer in the field. <br />The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in <br />this matter. There being none, he closed the public hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED BY <br />Commissioner Ginn, the Boardunanimously accepted the report <br />as satisfaction of the administrative requirements of the special <br />conditions of the 1997 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant. <br />9.A.2.
