RE: Agenda Item - Request for Expenditures from Law Enforcement
Trust Fund
Dear Mr. Roberts:
I would like to request that the Commission authorize the following expenditures
from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund:
$10,000 This sum will be used to pay the costs of towing and storing
abandoned cars, trucks, and trailers. The Commission and the Law Enforcement
Trust Fund allocated funds for this purpose some months ago, but more remains
to be done as part of our campaign to clean up our count)'-
$7,500 I intend to use these funds in continued support of Challenge Day
programs for high school and middle school youth.
$1,500 I propose to allocate this to the Key West Botanical Garden Society
to buy plants for an Earth Day celebration for children which will take place in
the Botanical Gardens on Stock Island.
Total: $19,000.00
I hereby certify that these expenditures are lawful pursuant to the Florida
Contraband Act. There will be no recurring expenses in the existing budget.
