To: Board of Supervisors
From: David O. Livingston, Sheriff-Coroner
Report Title: Change Order - LC Action Police Supply
☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Sheriff-Coroner, a purchase order amendment with LC Action Police Supply, to increase the payment limit by $60,000 to a new payment limit of $310,000 to replace the existing firearm platform for the sworn peace officer employees in the training unit of the Office of the Sheriff. (100% General Fund)
FISCAL IMPACT:
$60,000. 100% County General Fund; Budgeted
BACKGROUND:
In 2023, the Office of the Sheriff submitted a Board Order to request a new purchase order with LC Action to replace the existing Sig Sauer Firearm platform with Glock pistols for the sworn peace officer employees. The Board Order was approved on 09/12/23.
A purchase order amendment to add $60,000 is necessary to meet additional training and duty weapon needs as the Office of the Sheriff had less Sig Sauer firearms available for exchange than anticipated and additional Glock Pistols are needed.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Office of the Sheriff would be unable to provide the required firearms to sworn personnel, which could impact the ability to ensure public safety.
