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:
$646.80 Last month we gave The City of Marathon funds to purchase posters that
educated the public on marine awareness issues and laws related to lobster season. The
amount requested at this time will pay the balance owed for advertising.
$5,000 This amount will be given to the Toys for Tots Program to purchase toys for
needy youngsters in our community. The toys will be distributed by the Monroe County
Sheriff's Office Toys for Tots Program under the leadership of Mrs. Pat Silvers.
$400,000 This sum would be used to support this agency's continued participation in
the IMPACf Task Force. The mission of IMPACT is to interrupt money-laundering
activity based in the South Florida area. Money launderers operating in Florida offer their
services throughout this hemisphere. Their activity is essential to continued criminal
enterprise, and poisonous to our local economy.
TOTAL: $405,646.80
