MEMO
TO: Claude Jones, Interim Chief of Police

SUBJECT: Forfeited Fund Budget
DATE: January 14, 2002
Prior to the expenditure of forfeited funds, the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure
requires a law enforcement agency to submit a budget for these funds to the governing
body of that agency.
Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 59.06, Section d, which reads in part;
a special fund in the municipal treasury if distributed to a
municipal law enforcement agency, to be used solely for law
enforcement purposes, such as salaries and overtime pay
for officers, officer training, specialized investigative
equipment and supplies, and items used by officers in direct
law enforcement duties; ... a commissioners court or
governing body of a municipality may not use the existence
of an award to offset or decrease total salaries, expenses,
and allowances that the agency or the attorney receives
from the commissioners court or governing body at or after
the time the proceeds are awarded ...
The budget for the funds forfeited to the Lubbock Police Department and the South
Plains Regional Narcotics Task Force is outlined below:
Lubbock Police Department Special Investigations Fund $131,467
Expenses include computer equipment, software, lab equipment,
SWAT equipment, training and travel expenses and building
