We are applying to the State Office of Intergovernmental Services for grant funding through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program for grant funding in the following amounts: federal - $164,444, state - $32,889, and local match - $21,926. The JAG grant defines required local matching funds based on a percentage split of 75/15/10 in awarded federal and state funds plus local funds. To receive the federal and state portion of the JAG, the 4th JDTF must commit to a match of at least $21,926. However, Fayetteville provides additional funds in the amount of $233,000 to maintain the same level of effectiveness for the Drug Enforcement program. The other member agencies also contribute additional funds totaling $89,560. The 2012-2013 fiscal year grant award is the same amount as funded in the 2011-2012 grant period. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of the 2012-2013 Justice Assistance Grant award for federal and state funding in the amount of $164,444 and $32,889, respectively, for the funding of the 4th Judicial Drug Task Force. If you should have any comments or questions regarding this grant acceptance, please contact me at extension 500 or Judy Cohea at extension 581. BUDGET IMPACT: The existing budget will be sufficient for the balance of 2012 and will remain stable in 2013. RESOLUTION NO.
