TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
SAFE COMMUNITY
FROM: Joyce A. Parker, City Manager
SUBJECT: Donation of Used Body Armor
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members
of the City Council with information to consider donating used
police body armor to Club Rotario De Leon, GTO. Mexico
BACKGROUND
The Police Department has been contacted by Sal Camacho, the
Low International Coordinator of the Barrington Rotary Club. This club
has been focusing on obtaining used equipment for use in
impoverished areas of Mexico. The purpose of the request is to
authorize the Police Department to donate the surplus body armor to
the Barrington Rotary so they can send the armor to the Club
Rotario De Leon, Mexico, who will then turn them over to the Leon
Police Department . Mr. Camacho advises that at this time the city,
which currently has a population of over 1 . 3 million people, cannot
afford to equip their law enforcement officers with armor. The
department only has three or four security vests for their entire
force. The Elgin Police Department currently has over 100 used
vests that are boxed up in storage. The vests have no residual
value in the United States because their manufacturer warranties
have expired after five years of daily wear. These vests cannot be
sold at auction due to the possibility they will fall into the
hands of criminals .
Mr. Camacho states that he guarantees that between the Barrington
Rotary club and himself that the used armor will be given to the
City of Leon, GTO. This is a good solution for the City and will
benefit an impoverished area.

Dear Mike,
In the past 15 months I have been asked to try to get some safety equipment such as bullet proof
vests, or other equipment. The most recent petition comes from the Rotary Club of Leon, Gto.
Mexico, by President Elect Ing. Humberto M. Luce Najar of Leon. Leon is a city with a
population of 1.3 million people. At the present time to my knowledge they have only 3 or 4 of
these security vests.
I am requesting your help and cooperation in this matter, hoping that you could see it possible to
donate some of your used safety equipment with a guaranty of the Barrington Rotary Club and
myself that this safety equipment will be given to the mentioned city.
Hope to hear from you soon with a positive decision.
Sincerely,
-
Sal Camacho
International Coordinator
