A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF BULLETPROOF VEST PANELS,
CARRIERS, AND ATTACHMENTS FROM

WHEREAS, the City of Lodi Police Department has been seeking to update the uniform

around the waist due to "duty belts"; and

30 officers will get new bulletproof panels with their new carriers.
