FILE NUMBER
Amend the contract with Proforce Law Enforcement for police weaponry by
$15,000, in an annual amount not to exceed $40,000.
DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Police Department currently utilizes Glock-manufactured
firearms as standard issue side arms, allowing for conformity in training
and ammunition magazine interchangeability between officers. Additionally,
the police department purchases tasers and taser cartridges for use by
officers. ProForce Law Enforcement is the sole source distributor of
tasers and Glock weapons in California.
As these items are needed throughout the year, staff established a contract
in the amount of $25,000 for fiscal year 2007-2008. In order to facilitate
continued purchases of weaponry, staff recommends an increase to the
aggregate limit to $40,000.
FISCAL IMPACT
