PURPOSE
The Office of Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich (AGO) has set aside approximately $2.5 million in total
funds of Arizona’s portion of the Wells Fargo multistate settlement monies for purposes of funding requests by
Arizona law enforcement agencies to procure police safety equipment that is not currently funded by other
sources. The goal of the AGO is to award grants to every eligible law enforcement agency in Arizona that requests
qualified funding for officer safety equipment. Funding will be awarded in capped contract amounts to
eligible agencies based on the current number of law enforcement personnel with AZPOST certification in
each agency as of May 1, 2020.
AVAILABLE FUNDS
Grant awards of up to $50,000 are available for law enforcement agencies with a AZPOST certified office
workforce of 779 certified officers. The grant funds will be distributed through an executed Intergovernmental
Agreement (see Attachment I) between the agency and the AGO. The Awarded funds are available for a period
of twelve (12) months upon notice of award and are subject to available funds. All funds must be expended by
the end of the contract period. Agencies will be required to provide proof of purchase of approved equipment
purchased with AGO funds.
Available funds have been divided into ten (10) award category funding tiers, based upon current agency
AZPOST certification (as of 05/01/2020).
In the event eligible submission requests in a particular funding category exceed the capped amount of funds
available for that funding tier, the overall money distributed to each qualified requestor in that tier will be adjusted
proportionally.
ELIGIBLE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES
Applications can be submitted by law enforcement agencies identified by the AGO that include local
governmental police departments, County Sheriff offices, and Tribal law enforcement offices. Statewide agencies
and county attorney offices are not eligible for grant awards. Agencies that serve a primary function as game or
wildlife management are not eligible for funding. Agencies affiliated with community colleges, state universities,
or private universities are not eligible for funding. Agencies with an AZPOST certified force of less than two (2)
officers are not eligible for funding.
ALLOWABLE SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Examples of police safety equipment include, but are not limited to: personal protective equipment (PPE), body
armor, body cameras and video storage, improvements and repairs to existing law enforcement patrol vehicles,
replacement side arms, radios, GPS, cuffs and restraints devices, holsters, recording devices, shields, batons,
helmets, and / or electrical incapacitation devices. The AGO is providing each law enforcement agency with the
flexibility to determine what safety equipment is most appropriate for each agency, however, the AGO reserves
the right to reject any funding request that is determined to be outside of the scope or purposes of law enforcement

anticipated costs for each line item in the budget. The AGO will provide funding to law enforcement agencies
