19. AGREEMENT WITH THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FOR UAS MOBILE DETECTION EQUIPMENT - FFY2021 FUNDING Approve the Agreement and acceptance of grant funds to the Sheriff’s Office from the Arizona Department of Homeland Security, UAS Mobile Detection Equipment Investigative/Strategic Agreement Number 20-AZDOHS-HSGP-200812-04 in the amount of $60,000 for the award period beginning October 1, 2020 and terminating on September 30, 2021. This Agreement may be terminated by any of the parties by written notice to the other parties thirty (30) business days prior to termination. This is the first time the Sheriff’s Office has received this funding award and it is non-recurring. There is no match requirement. The Sheriff’s Office indirect cost rate for FY21 is 14.6%, applicable to the award amount of $60,000 less capital expenses of $60,000 for an indirect cost base of zero ($0) and indirect costs of zero ($0). Indirect costs are unallowable by the terms of this Agreement unless applied for and approved in writing (page 6, Allowable Costs Section, letter A), and zero ($0) in indirect costs will be absorbed by the General Fund. There are no future or ongoing contributions required after the grant period ends; however, property (items) purchased with these funds must be used for authorized purposes as described in the grant application and may be used in the program or project for which it was acquired for as long as needed whether or not the program or project continues to be supported by federal grant funds. This is not a mandated function although it supports the MCSO public safety mandate and provides a benefit to citizens by detecting, identifying, tracking and locating drones that could pose danger. The device provides the needed capabilities for early detection to mitigate a threat. This is a competitive award. The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office is one of several local law enforcement agencies in the Phoenix metro area that participate in this effort. This is reimbursement funding that will be used to purchase capital equipment. 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.
