ENCLOSURES:
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the
attached Resolution authorizing the funding of the "Push Out the
Pushers" program (P.O.P.), in the amount of $12,720. Funding is
to be provided from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project No.

BACKGROUND:
The Police Department is continuing its efforts to rid the
streets of "pushers" selling narcotics in our neighborhoods. The

extensive narcotics trafficking. The money being requested would
