Purchase This memorandum is forwarded to request approval to present the Tamarac City Commission a proposal for an expenditure of $58,379.00 from the Tamarac Law Enforcement Trust Fund, to fund the renovation of the Gym/Fitness Facility located within the Tamarac District Office. Issue: Law enforcement is a strenuous and stressful endeavor requiring both a certain level of physical fitness and a healthy opportunity for relief of work -related stress. A facility within the Tamarac District Office would afford deputies and civilian employees an opportunity to exercise priorto or aftertheirwork shifts, or during scheduled breaks. Additionally, the Sheriff's Policy Manual states, 3.18 FITNESS FOR DUTY: C. Employees are encouraged to maintain a satisfactory level of general health and fitness to perform their work efficiently; thereby, possibly reducing shortages caused by excessive illnesses or injuries. Background The Tamarac District Office currently has a weight room; which contains various pieces of equipment, many of which are outdated and/or nonoperational. Within the past two years, District Command has worked in conjunction with BSO Inventory Control to de -asset and dispose of antiquated and/or broken equipment. Additionally, the BSO had previously offered several providers for health insurance. These carriers offered memberships, for employees and their families, at local fitness centers. In Novemberof 2010, the Broward Sheriffs Office transitioned to a single source health care provider. This provider, Coventry Health Care of Florida, does not provide a similar benefit. Our intention is to properly equip a fitness center in the Tamarac District Office to replace the lost benefit. We have identified two spaces inside the district office which will be designate for a weight room and cardio room. EXHIBIT A Ex enditures The funding request is necessary as the fitness center will be a new program for the Tamarac District and all related costs must be funded. The initial funding requirements are anticipated as follows: 0 2 Commercial Grade Treadmills $ 7,464.00 0 2 Commercial Grade Elliptical machines $ 5,420.00 0 2 Commercial Grade Stationary bicycles $ 3,782.00 o Dumbbell set and rack $ 2,480.00 o Weight plates and rack $ 524.00 o Kettle Bells and rack $ 359.00 o Medicine Balls and rack $ 238.00 o Hyper Extension bench $ 499.00 0 4-Way bench $ 990,00 o Fitness Equipment Freight/Delivery $ 2,640.00 0 3 32" televisions $ 1,000.00 0 3 television wall mounts $ 300.00 0 3 Gym Wipe Dispensers w/Refills $ 465.00 o Remodeling (incl. electrical, flooring, etc.) $ 29,418.00 o Contingency ** $ 2800.00 The total requested from the trust fund account is: $58,379.00 ** Contingency: This amount was figured at approximately 5% of the total project cost and is meant to cover any pricing changes or unforeseen remodeling costs. If unused, these monies will be re- deposited in the LETF account. Tamarac State L.E.T.F. Status/Balance As of this date, the account balance in the Tamarac L.E.T.F. (State) account is $245,002.26. We have obtained approval from BSO Command and the City Attorney's Office.
