RE: Agenda Item,_L7
Conun.Mtg. Aug 4,1998
USDOJ Block Grant
The attached Resolution is an effort by the Police Department to
secure federal funding under the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant
Program to enhance the anti-crime efforts of the Crime Suppression
Team.
The Team's function is both the detection and apprehension of
persons involved in illicit activities. Due to manpower and
budgetary constraints, the Team is limited in its capacity. The
acceptance of this grant would allow an expansion of this
worthwhile effort.
The matching funds would come from the existing overtime budget and
would not alter the line item "Overtime" (1910-521-1410) in a
negative way.
Your concurrence is respectfully requested.
