PROVIDE EXPLANATION FOR THE PROPOSED EXTENSION REQUEST BELOW.

The past year has created many difficulties in arranging site visits to obtain quotes for the Kevlar shielding
approved in the grant and has also created supply chain issues from manufacturing sources. Additionally,
the City of Glendale undertook a comprehensive review of all City facilities including the Court. As a result
of that undertaking, the Court is scheduled to receive an extensive overhaul including remodeling of the
courtrooms.and the judge’s benches. We request this extension so that the City can proceed with the
remodeling prior to the installation of the Kevlar shielding of the benches.

RE: FY21 Court Improvement Grant (CSI)
Ballistic materials
GPT # 210747CS01
Extension of Time Only Request Original Grant Request: $20,000.00

Dear

Your request to extend the project duration of your FY21 Court Improvement Grant was received and reviewed. This letter
of approval will extend the project end date, allowing the court more time for obtaining ballistic materials as outlined in the
funding agreement.

Because the court's request is consistent with the original application, this letter will authorize the Glendale City Court to
extend the project duration. The new effective dates are 7/4/20 — 6/30/22. A final status report is required and due on
August 15, 2022 or 45 days after the project expiration date. There are no other changes to the terms as outlined in the
court’s original approval letter.

This approval is contingent upon the availability of Court Security Improvement funds. In the event that the court’s CSI
funds are insufficient to support the approved request, there is no obligation or approval to provide state funds.

that clearly delineates the JDU owns the equipment. The JDU will record transactions in its fixed asset
tracking system. The inventory policy is part of the funding agreement.

in its fixed asset tracking system. The inventory policy is part of the equipment grant agreement.

The JDU shall maintain written inventory and property control policies and procedures.

All equipment included under this policy shall be clearly identified and located for purposes of regular
physical inventory.

The JDU shall maintain an inventory log as described in the record keeping section of this policy.

tags and require tagging of the equipment. For all other items, the JDU shall maintain a tagging/numbering
system.
