RA ;• ,� The Miami Police Department encourages the citizens of the community to participate in the prevention and detection of crime. For this reason the Police Department has regularly sponsored and supported such groups as the Citizens Crime Watch, Youth Crime Watch, the Metro -Dade Criminal Justice Council and other organizations devoted to the prevention of crime. In an effort to efficiently combat crime the Police Department must regularly update its equipment and programs with innovative items and ideas. The Crime Prevention Program has been utilized to purchase state of the art equipment and offer financial support to crime prevention programs not regularly budgeted by the Police Department. All items over $4500 will still require commission approval prior to purchase. It is, therefore, requested that the Resolution funding the Crime Prevention Program, and allocating funds therefor in the amount of $100,000, be approved. Funding will be from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project No. 690001, Index Code 290904-996. 94- 43 El AFFIDAVIT STATE OF FLORIDA: : SS COUNTY OF DADE : Before me this day personally appeared Calvin Ross, who being duly sworn, deposes and says that: I, Calvin Ross, Chief of Police, City of Miami, do hereby certify that this request for expenditure from the City of Miami Law Enforcement Trust Fund, for the funding of the Crime Prevention Program, in an amount not to exceed $100,000, complies with the provisions of Section 932.704, Florida--Rp.:�atutes. 0 Cal n Ross C of of Police it of Miami Police Department Subscribed and sworn to before me this day of ArMiLe, 1993, by Calvin Ross, who is personally known to me.
