body
BACKGROUND:
The FIBRS project is designed to implement solutions to collect and process incident-based crime data from Florida's participating local and state law enforcement agencies. The solutions provide data to NIBRS, Use-of-Force, and LInX and provide a means to store and display Florida-only statistical data. The solutions also automate the collection, storage, and submission of law enforcement employee count data and population data.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
On 11/29/2021, the Ocala Police Department was advised that the funding opportunity entitled FY 2022 FIBRS Implementation Assistance Program was approved by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in the amount of $44,671. This subgrant will give the Ocala Police Department the ability to transition from uniform crime reporting (UCR) to Florida incident-based crime data reporting (FIBRS). There is no financial match required; however, the City will be responsible for costs associated with benefits.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Benefit costs will be covered by the employees’ home division in the Ocala Police Department’s budget.
