NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE: That the Clarksville City Council supports the Clarksville Police Department’s application to the Department of Justice for a Body Worn Cameras (BWC) grant and commits to sustaining this longterm program after initial funding expires. ADOPTED: To: Public Safety Committee, Clarksville City Council From: Chief Al Ansley Date: 14 July, 2016 Ref: Support for Bureau of Justice Grant for Body Worn Cameras and commitment to sustain program long term. In 2015 the Clarksville Police Department applied for a BWC grant through the department of Justice. The City of Clarksville was not selected to receive any funding for this particular application. We have identified several key components through assistance from Ms. Debbie Smith where our application could be stronger should we choose to apply in the future. Two of these components involve the City Council. One being community, and council support, and the second being evidence that the City will sustain the program over time. It is my intention to apply for this grant again, possibly in the spring of 2017 however, it would be a waste of time and effort unless we can present evidence of support, and sustainability after the initial funding has expired. Therefore I am seeking a resolution from the City Council through the Public safety Committee supporting the application, and the BWC program should we be selected to receive funding. The Grant would be a two year 50/50 match which would result in the following costs. Year one estimated Initial costs and storage of evidence $272,050 Cost for the City……………………………………………………………..$136,025 Year two estimated costs $254,250 Cost for the City………………$127,125 Cost for the City to sustain the BWC program after year two estimate $254,250 RESOLUTION 6-2016-17 A RESOLUTION APPROVING A TAX INCREMENT FINANCING AGREEMENT WITH MONTGOMERY COUNTY AND THE CLARKSVILLE-MONTGOMERY COUNTY INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BOARD WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that a developed and economically vibrant downtown area is of tremendous benefit to the City and its residents generally and to increasing the property tax base; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the downtown area of the City is in decline and in need of government assistance and incentives to spur economic development and the revitalization of the downtown area; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the public interest would be served by creating appropriate economic incentives as permitted by our City Charter, Tennessee law generally and specifically by Tennessee Code Annotated Section 7-53-101, et seq.; and WHEREAS, the Industrial Development Board for the County of Montgomery has developed an “Economic Impact Plan for the Civic Plaza Development Area” (see attached Exhibit A incorporated hereto) located in downtown Clarksville, as well as “Policies and Procedures for Tax Increment Incentive Program for Civic Plaza Development” (see attached Exhibit B incorporated hereto) in order to accomplish the forgoing purposes; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that approval of, participation in, and implementation of the Economic Impact Plan for the Civic Plaza Development Area and of the Policies and Procedures for the Tax Increment Incentive Program for Civic Plaza Development would serve the public interest and further the goals of downtown development, revitalization, and increasing the tax base; and WHEREAS, the Industrial Development Board and the County of Montgomery, as required by statute, has previously approved the Economic Impact Plan and the Policies and Procedures (see attached Exhibit C incorporated hereto).
