13. RESOLUTION APPROVING THE SUBMISSION OF PROJECTS FOR CONSIDERATION IN ARIZONA’S 2025 GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY PLAN Adopt a Resolution approving the application and acceptance of up to $704,038 in reimbursable grant funding from the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS). This pass-through federal funding will be used for overtime, training and equipment to accomplish projects related to highway safety. This resolution for Maricopa County specifically authorizes the filing and acceptance of grant funding from the priority Program areas: 1) a. Impaired Driving (DUI Enforcement; Underage Drinking Enforcement; Officer Training for Recognizing Impairment) $429,870; and b. Impaired Driving (Warrant Details) $46,000; 2) Accident Investigation, $128,728; and 3) Police Traffic Services (Aggressive Driver Education and Enforcement, Speed Related Patrol Enforcement, School Speed Zone and Construction Zone Enforcement and buckle Up AZ Enforcement) $99,440. The anticipated term of the funding is October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025. The Sheriff’s Office has received this funding for approximately 21 years. It is competitive, and recurring. There is no match requirement. The funding limits employer related expense reimbursements to 40% and the Sheriff’s Office is required to fund the difference ($173,296) from its general fund appropriation. This funding does not allow indirect cost recovery. The Sheriff’s Office indirect cost rate for FY2024 is 16.72%. This funding is earmarked primarily for overtime expense, training and the purchase of program related equipment. There are two capital equipment purchases, for an indirect cost base of $657,310 and estimated unrecoverable indirect costs of $109,902. There are no future or ongoing contributions required after the grant ends. This funding supports and enhances the Sheriff’s Office public safety mandate. 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.
