TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute an agreement and any subsequent amendments with the State of California Highway Patrol, for use of the Long Beach Police Department Pistol Range for a period of three years, for a total of $28,800. (District 5)
DISCUSSION
The CHP wishes to renew its agreement to use the Long Beach Police Department (LBPD) Pistol Range (Range) two days each month for regular weapons qualification for its sworn officers. The prior agreement expired on June 30, 2016. The term of the agreement will be from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2019. In keeping with previous agreements, the CHP has agreed to pay $400 per day, not to exceed $800 per month, for the use of the facility. Either party may terminate the agreement with thirty (30) days written notice to the other party. CHP has been using the Range for weapon qualifications since 1994.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Monica J. Kilaita on July 26, 2016 and by Budget Operations Administrator Grace Yoon on July 28, 2016.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action is requested on August 23, 2016, to ensure that the agreement is in place expeditiously.
FISCAL IMPACT
This agreement will continue to provide a budgeted General Fund (GP) revenue of $9,600 annually in the Police Department (PD), for a total amount of $28,800 over three years. There is no local job impact associated with this recommendation.
SUGGESTED ACTION
