ANALYSIS
As part of the City's annual budget process, the Finance and Citywide Projects
Committee (FCWPC) reviewed and approved the proposed Police Confiscation Trust
Fund budget at their July 10, 2013 meeting. Florida Statute 932.7055 provides for
expenditures of forfeiture funds for law enforcement purposes. As a matter of policy,
confiscation funds are typically utilized for capital purchases or one-time, non-recurring
expenses, including specialized equipment, grant matches and organizational training.
The Miami Beach Chief of Police, Raymond Martinez, reviewed and identified the need
for the appropriation of these funds and ensured that the expenditures of forfeiture funds
are in compliance with Section 932.7055, Florida State Statutes, and the Guide to
Equitable Sharing of Federally Forfeited Property for Local Law Enforcement Agencies.
These forfeiture funds have been deposited in the Police Confiscation Trust Fund. In
addition, the City has complied with all statutory procedures involved in the transaction
of these funds.
As part of the FCWPC meeting, a thorough review of the proposed expenditures for FY
2013/14 was presented. A summary of the FY 2013/14 Confiscation Budget is as
follows, and is attached as Exhibit"A":
Federal Funds - $489,000
• Specialized Technology - Rapid ID Fingerprint System and Ocean Tower
Systems (video enhancement)
• Sniper Rifle & Night Scope for SWAT Team
• Golf Carts
• Fixed License Plate Reader(location to be determined)
• Organizational Development Travel
• Special Travel due to off-site tests/evaluations of equipment
• Training
• Laptops
• Reimbursement for purchase of Bullet Proof Vest Purchases per the labor
contract with the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP)
• Graffiti eradication through Teen Job Corps
• Police training equipment
• Lifescan Device (fingerprint and background check)
As part of the collective bargaining agreement with the Fraternal Order of Police, the City
has committed to reimburse officers for the purchase of bullet proof vests. In past years,
along with a confiscation funds, the City offset the reimbursement through a grant from
the Department of Justice's Bullet Proof Vest Partnership. Recently, the grant amended
its requirements to include a mandatory "must wear" policy in place by applying
agencies. Due to this new requirement, the City was unable to apply for the FY 2013/14
funding cycle, as this policy is currently not in place in the Miami Beach Police
Department. As such, the reimbursement for this specialized equipment has been
included in the expenditure of Federal forfeiture funds.
State Funds—$235,000
• Crime Prevention Initiatives & School Liaison Projects
• Costs connected with prosecution/processing of forfeitures
• Victim of Crimes Act(VOCA) Grant Match for Victim's Advocate Salary
• Contracting of Latent Print Examiner expertise
• Scooters
• Scholarship Program
• AR Rifle Grant Match
• 15% of State Funds collected in FY 2011/12 to be used for drug abuse treatment,
drug and crime prevention education and non-profit community-based programs.
Future Costs Related to Purchases
The purchase of the laptops, golf carts and scooters are all one-time expenditures in FY
2013/14. There are replacement costs associated with the purchases items outlined as
part of the FY 2013/14 Confiscation Budget. These costs include $42,000 for the
replacement of fourteen (14) laptops, which will need to be replaced in three (3) years. In
addition, there are recurring operating costs for the golf carts and scooters for
approximately $3,200 per year per, which includes fuel and preventive maintenance
costs.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission adopt the Budget
for the Fiscal Year 2013/14 Police Confiscation Trust Fund and appropriate funds in the
amount of $724,000 to be funded from the proceeds of State and Federal Confiscation
Funds as listed in Exhibit"A".
