Odio REFERENCES City Manager ENCLOSURES. RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the funding of the Miami Police Department Anti -Drug and Crime Prevention Parade Float, in an amount not to exceed $30,000, from the City of Miami Law Enforcement Trust Fund. BACKGROUND: The Miami Police Department, in an effort to enhance the Department's image while providing a highly visible anti -drug message, felt that with the upcoming holiday season it would be beneficial to again fund a parade float. This year's float design would have the "Hot Wheels" Porsche as a centerpiece with the messages "D.A.R.E To Keep Off Drugs," and "Teaching Kids To Never Take Drugs" prominently displayed on each side. It goes without saying that in order for the Department to be more effective in the war on drugs we must take every opportunity to convey the message of a drug free community to the citizenry. It is therefore, recommended that the Resolution authorizing the funding of an Anti -Drug and Crime Prevention Parade Float, in an amount not to exceed $30,000, be adopted. The funding source is the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project Code No. 690001. 94- .943 /t -/ AFFIDAVIT I, Perry L. Anderson, Jr., Chief of Police, City of Miami, do hereby certify that the aforementioned request for expenditures from the City of Miami Law Enforcement Trust Fund, for the purchase of an Anti -Drug and Crime Prevention Parade Float at an estimated cost of S30.000, complies with the provisions of Section 932.704, Florida Statutes.
