O d l o 0 REFERENCES: City Manager ENCLOSURES: It is recommended that a resolution be adopted authorizing the City Manager to accept the donation of ammunition from Bank Systems and Equipment Corporation for use by the Miami Police Department Training Unit and SWAT. The Miami Police Department has received a letter from Mr. Bill Hasewinkle, owner of Bank Systems and Equipment Corporation, who wishes to donate five thousand (5,000) rounds of 12 gauge ##00 buck ammunition and two hundred sixteen (216) tear gas cartridges to the Police Department. Mr. Hasewinkle originally purchased the ammunition for export to a South American country banking system but the deal collapsed. Mr. Hasewinkle is in the process of moving to a new location and wishes to dispose of the ammunition. All he asks is that the Police Department pick up the ammunition and provide him with a receipt. The shotgun ammunition is valued at over $1,500.00 and could be used for qualifying and training purposes and the tear gas cartridges could be given to S.W.A.T. for their use.
