SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve the Safe & Sound Hillsborough Interlocal Agreement
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In the fall of 2013 the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) launched the Violence Prevention Collaborative along with other government agencies.  After a yearlong process five key goals were identified and appropriate strategies were developed.  The BOCC approved a budget to support the implementation of the Violence Prevention Collaborative strategic plan.  Supporting agencies are contributing financial and/or in-kind resources to support the implementation. 

The Safe & Sound Hillsborough Interlocal Agreement is a result of the initiative.  At the September 9, 2014, School Board Meeting the board approved a $5,000 annual sum to take place over a five year period.  The funds will be budgeted from non-recurring funds.

Due to the nature of the interlocal agreement, the BOCC is asking the School Board to sign first.

STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
• Promote a culture of safety, which is free from harassment, bullying, and aggression
FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted:  Yes)
The amount of $5,000 annually over a 5-year period will be budgeted from non-recurring funds.
