SUMMARY:
Attached is a Purchase Order from Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) for funds to
be used for Click-It-Or-Ticket May Mobilization by the Pueblo Police Department, within the City
of Pueblo.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Council has routinely accepted this semi-annual grant from CDOT for past seatbelt enforcement
funding.
BACKGROUND:
This grant, if approved, will allow the Police Department to increase its efforts in Seatbelt
Enforcement. We anticipate that a continued enforcement presence will be needed to have a
long lasting impact on seatbelt problems, and Click-It-Or-Ticket funding will allow the dedication
of full-time officers to focus on traffic issues.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There is no financial impact on the City as no match is required for this grant.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
There is no stakeholder process required for this grant.
ALTERNATIVES:
Decline the CDOT Grant offer.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Resolution.
