The City of Hartsville 
Agenda Date: 
8/8/2017

To: City Council

From: City Manager


Ordinance Number:   Resolution Number: 08-17-05 - REGULAR MEETING


ORDINANCE/RESOLUTION CAPTION: 

The Hartsville Police Department seeks to create a Memorandum of Understanding with the ATF Task Force.



BACKGROUND SUMMARY: 
ATF Task Force officers are able to bring in additional resources and monies for the purpose of investigations which reach a federal level, and have access to more advanced equipment and larger amounts of drug buy monies than are typically available to Local and State agencies.


IMPACT IF DENIED: 

If denied, we will be unable to expand investigations past what we traditionally have been able to accomplish.



IMPACT IF APPROVED: 
Hartsville Police Department will have access to more advanced equipment, larger amounts of buy monies for drug stings, and have help and expertise from ATF Officers.


FINANCIAL IMPACT: 
Negligible. Officers working with the ATF on investigations may be able to receive compensation for overtime, which will save the City money for work completed.
