July 9, 1996 96-244 - Letter from the City-Manager recommending adoption of a motion to transfer $16,400 from the Grants Contingency Account to purchase equipment for the Portsmouth Criminal Corrections Program. "The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services has awarded the City of Portsmouth an additional $16,400 to supplement the Portsmouth Community Corrections Program (formerly C.D.I.) for FY 1996. This additional funding award is to allow for the purchase of computers, a network server, and a printer. This program is fully funded by.the State and requires no local match. The program is designed to provide investigation£ supervision, and rehabilitation services to misdemeanant and non-violent offenders. The concept is to utilize punitive intermediate sanctions to deal with local responsible offenders. This allows them to remain in the community in lieu of jail time. These individuals are carefully monitored for adherence to program rules. I recommend approval of this request and the transfer of $16,400 from the Grants Contingency Account to support the purchase of computers and equipment for this program."
