BACKGROUND:
The Ocala Police Department has accumulated funds from federal, criminal, administrative, or civil forfeiture proceedings. These funds were logged into evidence and held in a designated fund as required by Florida State Statute. Following the statutory process, the funds were converted for official use and placed into a reserve account. The Ocala Police Department is seeking authorization to transfer the funds from the reserve account to support the expenses associated with the Emergency Operations Center/Real-Time Crime Center (EOC/RTCC) building expansion.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
The transfer of funds will enable the agency to utilize the accumulated funds to enhance the EOC/RTCC's capabilities and support public safety initiatives.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Reserve for the Police Trust Fund account has an approximate balance of $686,889. The funding for Professional Services will be in account 610-018-854-521-52-31010. The funding for equipment will be in account 610-018-854-521-52-52060.
