MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor & City Council
Don Ashworth, City Manager
FROM: Scott Harr, Public Safety Director
DATE: August 4, 1997
SUBJ: 1998 Southwest Metro Drug Task Force
Cash Match & Resolution
The purpose of this memo is to seek authority from the City Council to enter into the agreement with the
Southwest Metro Drug Task Force to maintain our involvement next year. As in the past, the Task Force
is required to receive a commitment from the cities that participate in order to seek reimbursement
monies from the federal government for next year. The cash match has remained under $10,000.00 per
city since the organization of this multi jurisdictional effort over ten years ago. Chanhassen is a charter
member of the Task Force.
For new members on the council, the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force is made up of the following
agencies /communities: Chanhassen, Chaska, Carver County, South Lake Minnetonka Police, Mound,
Scott County, West Hennepin Public Safety and McCleod County. Resources are pooled to fund for
narcotic agents that work these areas. The results have continued to be positive and well worth the rather
small cost to each city.
If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me prior to the council meeting at 937 -1900,
ext. 128.
RECOMMENDATION It is the recommendation of staff that the Chanhassen City Council pass the
attached resolution authorizing Chanhassen, as a member of the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force, to
enter into a contract with the Department of Public Safety in order to obtain financial reimbursement,
and commit to providing the 1998 cash match at or under $10,000.00.
