The House has included $1 million in supplemental funding for the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, according to the list released Monday, colloquially referred to as the “sprinkle list.”
The $1 million funding, if it survives the Governor’s veto pen, would help pay for a regional K9 training and boarding facility. The amount is half of what the Sheriff’s Office requested in its initial appropriations request.
The nonrecurring funds would be used to enhance HCSO “capabilities in training K9/handler teams in the areas of patrol … detection … and tracking missing/endangered persons by constructing (a) dedicated facility for training and safely boarding K9s.”
