AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution for the Waiver and Transfer of Juvenile Accountability
Incentive Block Grant Funding and Disbursement of Matching City Funds
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2004
PREPARED BY: JERRY J. ADAMS, CHIEF OF POLICE
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 sixth year, the Office of Criminal Justice Planning has
awarded a Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant to San
Joaquin County. The total award is $207,677 with the City of Lodi's
share of the grant being $11,937.
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 workers 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 six (6) years.
FUNDING: $11,937 grant funds were awarded by the Office of Criminal Justice Planning to the City of
Lodi through the San Joaquin County for the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant.
$1315 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.
