2025 Arizona Benefits Fund Grant Application
Project Summary
The Glendale Police Department Forensics Unit respectfully requests $23,455.11 to
acquire cabinet and a cyanoacrylate fuming chamber with an ultraviolet attachment. This
ultraviolet cabinet uses light emissions to safely decontaminate contents, while providing a
safe environment for the forensic operator.
Narrative
The Mission of the Glendale Police Department is to protect the lives and property of those
we serve. We are guided by our values - Integrity, Courage, Excellence, Respect,
Dedication, and Compassion - ensuring professionalism and ethical policing. Our vision is
to build a department that is highly qualified, diverse, accountable, and committed to
creating a safe community. To achieve these goals, GPD is focused on:
•
Reducing crime and the fear of crime through proactive enforcement.
•
Enhancing community trust through engagement and transparency.
•
Ensuring operational efficiency within the department
•
Improving customer service and communication internally and externally.
As Glendale continues to expand as a hub for large-scale events, tourism, and
entertainment, the department has prioritized enhancing equipment needs to increase the
department’s capacity to assure public safety.
The Glendale Police Department (GPD) is a full-service, CALEA-accredited law
enforcement agency dedicated to protecting lives and property, maintaining public safety,
and fostering trust within the community. Founded in 1910, GPD has grown from a single
town marshal to nearly 600 employees serving a diverse population of over 255,000
residents in one of the largest cities in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
This is a request for new equipment as the Glendale Police Forensic Unit does not currently
have an ultraviolet cabinet. Ultraviolet cabinets sterilize equipment. The Unit currently uses
a less sustainable solution of disposable supplies when sterile equipment is needed.
The Glendale Police Department Forensic Unit currently has cyanoacrylate fuming
chambers. An additional fuming chamber will make the forensic unit more efficient in
turning around evidence processing requests. This faster processing time prevents further
victimization and increases the potential for suspect identification in cases.

The incorporation of an ultraviolet cabinet will allow the forensic unit the ability to rapidly
decontaminate equipment such as fingerprint brushes, tweezers, black powder etc. to
reduce the strain on consumable supplies when DNA testing is needed. This will save time
and money benefiting the citizens we serve. Without the cabinet, non-sustainable items
would be consumed by the Forensic Unit. Without a secondary CA chamber, evidence
processing will take a longer time frame. The request for funding is in direct alignment with
the Fort McDowell’s funding priority area of Public Safety as it improves efficiencies for the
forensic unit in sterilizing equipment, ensuring accurate results for crime investigation and
furthers the safety of residents.
The target population for this are the residents of Glendale. The UV cabinet and the
additional CA chamber scanner will first serve approximately 250,000 residents along with
visitors to the City of Glendale. This technology will also serve the partner cities in the West
Valley Investigative Response Team where Glendale is the leading agency in this
partnership. Society will benefit from the use of less disposable materials and less
processing time.
Upon approval of the grant funding, the Glendale Police Department would promptly order
both the UV cabinet and CA chamber. The goal would be to acquire and put into use within
the next fiscal quarter after funding and approval.
