BACKGROUND:
The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration (ADF&A) has provided federal
and state grant funding to the City of Fayetteville for mufti -jurisdictional drug task force activities
since 1991. Participating law enforcement agencies include Fayetteville, Springdale, Prairie
Grove, Farmington, Lincoln, Greenland, West Fork, Elkins, Johnson, Tontitown, Elm Springs,
and Washington County. The DTF Control Group consists of top law enforcement officials from
Fayetteville, Springdale, Prairie Grove, and Washington County. Fayetteville continues to
provide fiduciary oversight of this grant and provides a DTF Supervisor, three (3) DTF Officers,
and a DTF Secretary. Springdale provides two (2) DTF Officers and Washington County
provides a DTF Officer. Also, Prairie Grove provides a DTF Officer which represents the rural
agencies.
DISCUSSION:
The 4th Judicial District DTPs total projected budget for the 2015-2016 grant period is
$559,229- ADF&A's Office of Intergovernmental Services is offering continuation grant funding
through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program and the State
Drug Crime Enforcement and Prosecution Fund (DCF) in the following amounts: federal/state -
$242,610 and local match - $46,962. 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 match
funds. Alternatively, the DCF grant defines required local matching funds based on a
percentage split of 80/20 in awarded state funds plus local match funds. To receive the federal
and state portion of the JAG and state portion of the DCF, the 4th DTF and member agencies
must commit to the local match. In addition to the local match requirement, Fayetteville has
budgeted additional funds in the amount of $186,038 to cover other non -grant funded drug
enforcement activity. The other member agencies also contribute additional funds totaling
$83,619.
