CONTRACTED REGIONAL NARCOTICS SUPPRESSION PROGRAM (RNSP. OFFICERS Assets forfeited as a result of activities conducted by contracted RNSP officers will be used to augment CITY’s law enforcement services. Because activities of this type result from the efforts of both contracted officers and other RNSP officers, the percentage of sharing will be determined pursuant to the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding in effect at the time of the seizure. Said Memorandum of Understanding provides that assets are distributed according to percentage amounts based on the number of sworn personnel participating in the RNSP at the time of the seizure. The number of personnel in RNSP, as well as the number of participating agencies in RNSP, may fluctuate during the course of a contract year, thereby affecting the percentage amounts distributed to participating agencies. The percentage amounts distributed to participating agencies may also be affected by action taken by the RNSP Executive Board. CITY will use RNSP forfeited assets only to augment CITY’s law enforcement services. If the forfeiting agency or applicable RNSP Memorandum of Understanding attaches any additional or more specific conditions on the use of said assets, CITY shall abide by those conditions. SHERIFF and CITY’s manager shall determine the specific use of said assets within the conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding. Subject to conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding and to the requirement that RNSP forfeited assets be used to augment law enforcement services, COUNTY shall place forfeited cash or cash from the sale of forfeited assets in an interest-bearing account for use in CITY in compliance with the forfeiting agency’s regulations and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding.
