expenses. As a condition of receiving this money, the Department must
guarantee a match of $2,212 ( 25%) . The Chief has been authorized to
satisfy the 25% match by purchasing the furniture for the Tri County
Drug Task Force office with funds made availbie through the Law
Enforcement Trust Fund (drug money) . Authorization was requested to
purchase eight operational chairs and two executive chairs totalling
$2, 144. The balance of the match ($68) will more than satisfy the

area. Lincoln' s Office Supply has supplied the low bid for said
furniture. It was moved by Buck, seconded by Angel that authorization
be given to purchase said furniture. Motion carried.
It was moved by Buck, seconded by Angel that the Police Chief be given
