The agreement may be renewed for four, one-year renewal periods subject to the written agreement of the parties and the availability for federal funding. The grant award is reoccurring and has been awarded to the Sheriff's Office since 1998. A cash or in-kind match is not applicable. There is no future or ongoing contribution required following termination of the grant period. The Sheriff’s indirect cost rate is 16.3% for a total of $9,119.36, none of which is recoverable and will be absorbed by the Sheriff’s Office General Fund (100) operating budget. The grant award is not a mandated function but provides a benefit to the citizens by enhancing public safety through illegal drug interdiction. The grant award is not competitively bid. This agreement reimburses overtime costs for three deputies assigned to the task force, up to $18,649 per deputy for a total of ($55,947). Reimbursement for FICA/Medicare and Retirement costs of ($38,821.62) is not allowed and will be absorbed by the MCSO General Fund (100) operating budget. Th e total financial impact is $94, 768 . 62. These 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. Approval of this action will enhance disruption of the illicit drug traffic in Maricopa County and the State of Arizona by immobilizing targeted trafficking violators and organizations.
