The use of less-lethal weapons (tasers) provides <br /> force with more options when an offrcer is faced with a violent situation. It is our intention to <br /> use the Justice Assistance Grant allocation to purchase thirty-five tasers and holsters. <br /> Goals ofthe project: <br /> To ensure public safety by enhancing and upgrading departmental equipment and <br /> technology. Taser devices incapacitate dangerous, combative, and high-risk subjects who <br /> pose a threat to citizens and law enforcement officers. This weapon is generally recognized as <br /> a safer alternative to other uses of <br /> force. <br /> Strategies to be used for project: <br /> • Thirty-five tasers and holsters will be purchased. <br /> • Officers will receive training with the device. <br /> The equipment will be maintained and stored at the Police Department Facility. <br /> Quantifiable Performance Measures: (Established by the agency to assess whether grant <br /> objectives are being met; refer to solicitation) <br /> Yearly audits will be conducted and documented. <br /> Timeline and/or project plan: (Identifying when the goals and objectives will be completed) <br /> The goals and objectives outlined above will be instituted immediately upon receiving the <br /> <br /> frnancial allocation. <br /> Funding: <br /> i <br /> Total Allocation: $51,125.00 <br /> PROACT Contribution: (possible 10%) $5,112.50 <br /> Administrative Fee (9%): $4,601.25 <br /> Funds Retained by City/County: $41,411.25 <br /> 2009- DJ-BX-0033 Page 11 of 27 <br /> 20A-18 <br /> <br />
