Eric Nordengren, Captain NPD Professional Standards Bureau
Good evening Mr. Mayor, Committee Members, ballistic vests typically have a 5-year manufacturer's warranty
and that is what we are going by and these vests do have the 5-year warranty. So that is typically for our
officers that are in service, the vocational point and that is what we are projecting for the coming fiscal year as
well as any new hires that we may bring on. That number encompasses both of those.
