AGENDA TITLE-, Adopt Resolution for the Waiver and Transfer of Juvenile Accountability Incentive
Block Grant Funding and Disbursement of Matching City Funds
DATE: August 20, 2003
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a Resolution for the waiver and transfer of
Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant funding and disbursement of
matching City funds.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION-, For the fifth year, the Office of Criminal Justice Planning ha .awarded
a Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant to San Joaquin
County. The total award is $104,350 with the City of Lodi's share of
the grant being $13,989.
I am recommending that Council authorize the City of Lodi's share of this grant to be waived so the funds
can be pooled with grant funds from the cities of Manteca, Tracy, Stockton, and the County of San Joaquin
for purposes of funding Gang Outreach workers. These worker(s) will serve San Joaquin County cities and
liaison between law enforcement, gang members and their families. This program is tied to the Operation
Peacekeeper Program in which the City of Lodi has participated, with County agencies, for the past five (5)
years,
FUNDING: $13,989 grant funds were awarded by the Office of Criminal Justice Planning to the City of
Lodi through San Joaquin County for the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant. $1,554 of
matching funds will be provided from the City of Lodi, via the State of California's Supplemental Law
Enforcement Services Fund, that was awarded to the Lodi Police Department,
