I cleared up the issue I had. I found where a vendor shipped us a Level IIA vest rather than a Level II we
ordered. I was afraid we had started ordering the IIA’s (less protection), but that is not the case. Supply is
checking to make sure there aren’t others and will deal with the vendor appropriately.
They are Ballistic Vests (as opposed to stab), shelf life is 5 years. We get them custom fitted for gender
neutral (based on each deputy’s specific measurements).
I pen & inked the response on the PDF pages (attached).
I will be out of town on TDY all next week. I’ll get the agenda etc to you the following week.
Have a good weekend too.
George

I’m working on your reponse, but in researching it I found we are buying level IIA vests. I want to check
with adult leadership to see if that’s what their intent is before we move forward.

Good morning, I am working on the BVP application pages and need your help.
The application pages are needed when you present to the BOCC at the next available meeting, May 6,
2014; the cutoff is Wednesday, April 30. I will need your agenda request/package in this office no later
than Tuesday, April 29.
I have attached screenshots of what I need to keep moving forward, please provide information
highlighted in yellow. I did look up the population Census information for Okaloosa, 180,822 for 2010,
unless you have something more current/accurate.
Please confirm the replacement cycle is 5 years.
I don’t think you have anything to report under Application Profile, because you don’t have any unspent
BVP funds.
On the Vest Information, they are all Ballistic right? Vest Detail, please verify the information and would
you like to include any shipping/handling cost?
I have also attached the last Agenda Request and a Certification form.
Thank you for your help.
