CITY OF YUCAIPA POLICE DEPARTMENT SAFETY ITEMS

The City of Yucaipa Police Department is seeking funding through the JAG Grant 2024 to enhance law enforcement capabilities by acquiring essential safety equipment. This proposal aims to secure $10,761 to equip officers with advanced tools that will improve their effectiveness and safety in high-threat situations, ultimately benefiting the community.
The requested items include pepper ball launchers and rounds, which provide a less-lethal force option for subduing combative individuals, ensuring public safety during volatile encounters. Additionally, high-quality area lighting will facilitate thorough investigations by the Major Accident Investigation Teams in poorly lit environments, while portable generators will ensure operational continuity during emergencies, such as earthquakes and floods. By investing in this equipment, the Yucaipa Police Department will enhance its response capabilities, protect personnel, and safeguard the community. This proposal underscores our commitment to maintaining public safety and our appreciation for support in advancing law enforcement efforts.
