Executive Summary
The Director of Labor Relations & Professional Standards, on behalf of the Superintendent of Schools, hereby requests the Board to approve a purchase order of $ 125,480 to FDLE for fingerprint retention. The State has begun a transition of fingerprint retention moving into the AHCA Clearinghouse for the FL Department of Education. This legislative mandate has required additional funding for our current employees to be fingerprinted again in order for fingerprint retention to occur in the new system and to avoid passing on the cost to our current employees. In the long term there will be some savings to the district as initial cost for employees carried by the district years 2 to 5 will disappear and potential employees will benefit from being able to save the initial cost of fingerprints when they are coming from another FL school district or adjacent agency.

Financial Impact
See attached budget sheet.
If expenditure is not currently budgeted, this will serve as the budget amendment when Board approved. If the agenda item includes the purchase of goods or services, the funds requested are an anticipated amount and may fluctuate depending on such factors as current market conditions, product availability, additional funding sources, and the needs of the District. Should the actual cost exceed the anticipated amount, the Board approves the additional cost, after review by the superintendent, but not in excess of the funds available in the site’s approved annual budget.
