UNFINISHED BUSINESS UB-1 NON-PARTNERING LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY FACILITY USAGE AND CONTRIBUTION BRYAN HARTSHORN/POLICE Discuss Non-Partnering Agency use of the Eldorado Valley Regional Public Safety Training Facility (EVRPSTF) and charges to recover costs of facility maintenance for the Emergency Vehicle Operator Course (EVOC) track and the firearm ranges. Sgt. Aaron Johnson, Boulder City Police Department, stated one of the original concepts of the training facility was to have financial support from both partnering and non-partnering agencies to assist with general maintenance and upkeep costs. He summarized the agencies that utilize the shooting range and EVOC track and he recommended a fee schedule be created so non-partnering agencies can budget accordingly for usage. Sgt. Johnson stated it was the Operations Committee’s recommendation to impose a daily fee of $100.00 for use of the shooting range and $100.00 fee for use of the EVOC track for any non-partnering public agency use. He said this is a fair charge in comparison to other range fees. Mr. Johnson said he noticed a trend where agencies reserved multiple dates to use the facility; however, they do not show up to each reservation. He stated a fee will likely eliminate this issue. Acting Chairman Michael Denning clarified that the new fee structure will only be utilized by non-partnering law enforcement agencies and will not be offered to private businesses. He stated the fees collected will be used for the upkeep of ranges and maintenance of the facility. Following a discussion regarding how to charge the fees, Chief Shea recommended there be a grace period so non-partnering agencies can budget accordingly. Eldorado Valley Regional Training Facility Executive Committee Page 3 of 5 Wednesday, July 15, 2020 – Minutes Michael Oh, Henderson Senior Assistant City Attorney, recommended this item be brought back for approval at a future meeting to allow the Operations Committee to draft a formal fee schedule and any potential amendments to the manual. He said courtesy notices can be provided to non-partnering agencies who may potentially be affected by the changes. (Motion) Chief Shea introduced a motion to approve charging non-partnering agencies to use the range and developing an appropriate fee structure and billing process. The vote favoring approval was unanimous. Acting Chairman Denning declared the motion carried. UB-2 FIREARM SIMULATOR EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT BRYAN HARTSHORN/POLICE Discuss update on firearms simulator equipment replacement.
