District. School Resource Officers provide specialized campus security and general law enforcement
services to the public schools located in National City. The salaries and benefits for the police officers
are funded by a joint funding agreement between the Sweetwater Union High School District, National
School District, and the City of National City. The proposed Agreement with the National School District
would be effective and retroactive from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013. Approval of the resolution

School Resource Officers and share costs. Under the Agreement the SUHD will pay $80,000 as its
share, the National School District will pay $61,917as its share. Essentially the two School Districts will
be funding the full pay and benefits of one officer and the City will pay the full cost of the second officer.
