14. FUNDING FROM THE ARIZONA GAME AND FISH COMMISSION FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT BOATING SAFETY FUND FY18 Approve the acceptance of up to $405,000 in continued funding from the Arizona Game and Fish Commission for Law Enforcement Boating Safety. The term of this funding is estimated to be July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018. This funding will be used to pay personnel costs, purchase equipment, and/or maintain/repair/replace watercraft patrol boat(s) so that the waterways in Maricopa County can continue to be effectively patrolled. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. The Sheriff’s indirect cost rate for FY18 is 19.9% ($80,595). These funds are the result of A.R.S. § 5-383 and indirect cost recovery is not allowed. There will be capital equipment purchases valued at $250,000 that are excluded from the indirect cost calculation. Thus the unrecoverable indirect cost impact of this funding is ($30,845). Acceptance of these funds will enable the Sheriff’s Office to purchase equipment and /or other items relating to patrolling the waterways in Maricopa County. (C-50-18-004-G-00)

15. COMPETITION IMPRACTICABLE PROCUREMENT WITH SAFE BOATS INTERNATIONAL FOR REPLACEMENT PATROL BOAT Approve a Competition Impracticable Procurement as authorized by Maricopa County Procurement Code, MCI-351, for the not-to-exceed amount of $249,009.34 with Safe Boats International to purchase a replacement patrol boat for the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) Lake Patrol Division. This replaces current patrol boat (LP63), a 2005 Triton, that is being retired because it has reached the end of its useful life. The source of funding for this purchase is the Arizona Game and Fish Commission for Law Enforcement Boating Safety Fund. These funds were accepted by the Board on July 26, 2017 in agenda item C-50-18-004-G-00. This 25-foot boat will be used on Lake Pleasant where the waves can get especially high and rough. MCSO currently has other SAFE Boats in its fleet which have proven to provide a much better overall operational platform for Lake Patrol's operational requirements. SAFE boats were designed for, and used in a variety of law enforcement mission profiles to include port security, patrol, marine and boating safety, law enforcement, drug interdiction, and search and rescue. The SAFE Boat is a semi-rigid construction that utilizes a full-sized foam collar system for flotation, stability and fendering. This full-sized foam collar system is unlike other manufacturer's collar systems that are susceptible to deflation and catastrophic failure due to temperature fluctuations, live fire/bullets, or striking docks, buoys, pilings or other obstacles.
