Proposed Resolution
Psychological Pre -Employment
Screening
It is respectfully recommended that a Resolution amending Resolution No. 95-307, to increase the
amount approved from $133,500.00 to $217,000.00, for the provision of Psychological Pre -
Employment Screening and Psychological Counseling Services from Law Enforcement
Psychological & Counseling Associates, Inc., be approved. Funding is to be provided from the
Police General Operating Budget, as follows: $112,000.00 from Account Code
001000.290201.6.270, and $105,000.00 from Account Code 001000.290201.6.260.
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Police has been awarded two grants in the past couple of years from the United
States Department of Justice under the Cops Universal Hiring Phase I and Phase II, to be utilized
towards payment of salaries to hire additional police officers. The Department of Police has
already hired one hundred and twenty (120) police officers under Phase I and will be hiring an
additional one hundred and two (102) police officers under Phase II. All police officer applicants
must undergo psychological pre -employment screening as part of the background process. The
Department of Police did not anticipate these grants being awarded when the request for proposals
were issued for this service back in 1995. The original amount allocated for this service will not be
sufficient to cover the expense of hundreds of possible candidates that must be screened for these
positions.
