records for five years.

STAFF REPORT
VERNON POLICE DEPARTMENT
DATE: August 4, 2010
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Daniel Calleros, Captain
RECEIVED
AUG 0 4 2010
CITY CLERK'S OFFICE
RE: Federal Equitable Sharing Agreement and Annual Certification Report
Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to request approval from City Council for the execution of
the Asset Forfeiture Federal Equitable Sharing Agreement and Annual Certification Report.
Facts
When state or local agencies, such as the Vernon Police Department, work with federal
agencies to enforce federal criminal laws, they may apply for an equitable share of any forfeited
proceeds. The Police Department (PD) has investigators assigned to Los Angeles Interagency
Metropolitan Police Apprehension Crime Taskforce (LA IMPACT) as well as the Southwest
Borders Initiative Taskforce (SWBI) and receives an equitable share of forfeited proceeds from
both taskforce.
To obtain such proceeds, the state or local agency must sign an Equitable Sharing Agreement
and certify that the forfeited proceeds received are allocated as required by federal statutes and
regulations established by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the U.S. Department of
Justice. These laws and regulations require that:
• forfeited funds or property must be kept separate from state or other forfeitures;
• a federal Equitable Sharing Agreement and Certification be filed annually with both
agencies;
• a record shall be maintained of the funds or property and any expenditures; and
• funds exceeding $100,000 shall be audited annually.
The Department of Justice enacted an electronic reporting process to streamline and simplify
the reporting of funds received by local agencies. This process requires participating agencies
to use a reporting form that combines the Equitable -Sharing Agreement and Certification Report
which will be submitted electronically.
The Certification Report included with the Agreement requires signature by the Agency Head
(the Chief of Police) and the Governing Body Head (the City Administrator) to certify that the
City understands its obligations under the Agreement and, under penalty of perjury, certify that
the reported financial information regarding the Police Department's receipt and expenditure of
the funds is true and correct.
The forfeited proceeds received through the Equitable Sharing Agreement vary greatly year to
year as the receipts of funds are based on the resolution of specific court cases. When
received, the funds are placed into special PD asset forfeiture account.
In addition to the execution of the 2009-2010 Equitable Sharing Agreement and Certification
Report, five amended Equitable Sharing Agreement and Certification Reports for the period of
2005-2009, will need to be executed as well. A review of the asset forfeiture fund for the listed
period revealed an accounting error. The certification reports for the listed period have been
revised to reflect the correct asset forfeiture balance.
In 2005, the City Council approved ratification and execution of the Equitable Sharing
Agreement and Certification Report, under Resolution 8747. City legal staff has reviewed the
asset forfeiture process as well as the equitable sharing and annual certification report.
Recommendation
I request authorization from City Council for the execution of the federal 2009-2010 Equitable
Sharing Agreement and Certification and the amended Equitable Sharing Agreement and
Certification reports for the period of 2005-2009.
