1 CONSENT # 4A <br />I <br />DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE EQUIPMENT TRANSFER PROGRAM <br />By: David Gustafson, Police Chief <br />Background: <br />The Department of Defense has, for several years, made surplus military equipment available to <br />all levels of law enforcement. All law enforcement agencies wishing to participate must enter <br />into a signed agreement with the Department of Military Affairs. Such an agreement has been <br />received by the City of Ramsey and has been reviewed by City Attorney Goodrich who advises <br />that the terms of the agreement do not place the City of Ramsey in jeopardy nor does it have to <br />accept or apply for any such equipment. There are no fees or annual costs to participate other <br />than expenses that would be incurred picking up the equipment at one of the military bases where <br />' it is being disposed from. <br />It is understood that the Police Chief would gain Council approval prior to accepting any military <br />equipment under this program. <br />Council Action: <br />' Motion to authorize the Police Chief to sign the agreement with the Department of Military <br />Affairs. <br />1 31 <br />
