RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Total Firearms Training to increase the payment limit by $10,000 to a new amount of $225,600, to provide firearms range safety management for Sheriff's personnel and range visitors for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$225,600. Budgeted (70% General Fund, 30% participant fees)

BACKGROUND:

Total Firearms Training will provide Rangemaster, Armorer, and Instructor services at the Sheriff's Range. Contractor will also provide firearms range safety management for Sheriff's personnel and range visitors to include observation of Sheriff's personnel and visitors while they are handling firearms, advise of any safety concerns observed, and take immediate action to stop activity viewed as presenting a danger to life or property. Contractor will perform range maintenance and improvement supervision, perform tasks related to armorer repair and provide firearms instruction.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Due to the impact of COVID-19, the Office of the Sheriff has encountered staffing challenges, making it is necessary to add funds to this contract to allow additional working hours by the Contractor. This action will help maintain operations for the Sheriff's Range through December 31, 2021. This will help facilitate required training and ensure sworn employees are compliant with mandated POST standards concerning firearm proficiency and qualification.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Negative action by the Board of Supervisors will likely result in the temporary closure of the Sheriff's Range, including forfeiture of income from participant fees.
