Board transfers $3,366.36 in body-cam donations to police association
Summary
The board decided to move $3,366.36 that had been recorded to a police body-cam revolving fund into the police association, noting the donations largely predated the association and may have been solicited for National Night Out.
Treasury presenter S5 reported $3,366.36 in a police body-cam revolving fund and said the money originated from donations solicited for National Night Out and from undesignated checks that later had 'body cams' written in different handwriting. S5 told the board the department has already purchased body cameras and that some donations appear to have been misassigned to the body-cam fund.
Members discussed that many of the checks dated from 2020–2022, before a police association existed; the board agreed to move the $3,366.36 to the police association, which now runs National Night Out. The motion passed by vocal assent; staff will follow up on bookkeeping details as needed.
