FY 2024 Enhancing Officer Safety Through the Procurement of Compliant Ballistic Rifle Plates for the Sheriff’s Special Enforcement Detail

The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s office will use the FY 2024 JAG funds to purchase 37 Ballistic Rifle Plates for the Sheriff’s Special Enforcement Detail team. This project will ensure our deputies have access to reliable and compliant protective equipment that adhere to enhanced safety standards, including Level IIIA, II, and ballistic/stab soft armor systems. This procurement will occur outside of the normal replacement cycle for protective equipment, addressing an urgent need for operational readiness.
