BOOK 106 PACE <br />By approving our application to proceed in the qualification round, we will have the opportunity to <br />reduce our upcoming budget request. Each civilian position will cost $28,240.19 in salary/benefits, for a <br />total of $112,960.75 in the first year. The same number of entry level law enforcement officers will cost <br />$37,534 each for salaries/benefits, for a total of $150,136. Additionally, each sworn officer will require <br />$30,400 in capital start up costs for an additional amount of $121,600, or a total of $271,736. The <br />savings are estimated at over $158,000 plus the additional benefit of having four more deputies on the <br />road. <br />Attached is a copy of the grant and a sample letter of support that requires the Chairman's signature. <br />Your consideration of this request is appreciated. Should you have any questions, feel free to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Gary�CZeeler, Sheriff <br />GCW:mej <br />Attachment <br />The 173rd Internationally Accredited Law Enforcement Agency <br />Accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Incorporated <br />Undersheriff Davis advised that certain figures in the letter above need to be revised <br />because they were reconditioning cars instead of buying them. In the third paragraph, the <br />$1212600 (start up costs including 4 vehicles) should be decreased by $19,220, (2 deputies <br />already are assigned cars and 2 cars will be refurbished) and the $158,000 (savings estimate) <br />should be $123,616 if the grant is approved.
