RE: Resolution 67-06 - In Support of a Grant Request to the Attorney General
for Continuation of the D.A.R.E. Program
SUMMARY:
In order to assist local law enforcement agencies in presenting the D.A.R.E. program, the
State Attorney General's Office is once again offering matching grant funds. These funds are
specifically earmarked for D.A.R.E. officers' salaries to those agencies that teach the
approved curriculum.
We expect to receive $37,827.55 in funds from the Attorney General's office. It is important to
note that these funds do not require us to hire additional personnel, but are simply meant to
assist our efforts. Even though we are required to match these funds, our overall personnel
costs to deliver the program will be reduced.
In order to qualify for these funds, the Attorney General requires a resolution from the local
governing authority for the Division of Police to apply with the understanding that the local
government must match the funds.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is our recommendation that Council pass this resolution in support of our D.A.R.E. program.
