Department

Police Department

Staff recommends approval to apply for, and accept if awarded, the Federal Fiscal Year 2020 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG C & D).

Summary

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) submitted Florida’s Fiscal Year 2020 Edward Byrne JAG application last year and recently received notice of award. FDLE typically administers each Edward Byrne JAG award via formula allocations in two cycles: JAG-Countywide (JAGC) and JAG-Direct (JAGD). Although initiation of the JAG-D cycle is not normally begun until the JAG-C is complete, it is necessary to begin both simultaneously.  Staff is still in the process of determining how that funding will be utilized.

Staff is requesting approval to accept both the 2020 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant JAG C and JAG D, if awarded.. Russell.
