<br />94-345 - Letter from the City Manager recommending adoption of a
<br />motion to transfer $106,075 from the Grants Contingency Account
<br />to fund the Intensified Drug Enforcement Assistance Program for
<br />FY 95.
<br />
<br /> "The Department of Criminal Justice Services has approved
<br />an Intensified Drug Enforcement Assistance (IDEA) grant in the
<br />amount of $100,771 for the Commonwealth Attorney's Office. This
<br />grant requires a local cash match of $5,304.
<br />
<br /> The overall increase in the crime rate has resulted in high
<br />case loads for both the Commonwealth Attorney's Office and the
<br />Police Department. Consequently, this grant award will allow
<br />for the hiring of a full-time prosecutor, a police officer, and
<br />a secre=ary for drug cases with a priority in the seizure and
<br />target profits generated through drug transactions and staffing
<br />assistance as necessary.
<br />
<br /> I, therefore, recommend the transfer of $106,075 from the
<br />Grants Contingency Account to fund this program."
<br />
<br /> Motion by Mr. Robinett, and seconded by Mr. Martin, to
<br />transfer $106,075 to fund the Intensified Drug Assistance
<br />Program for FY 95, and was adopted by the following vote:
<br />
<br />Ayes: Clemons, Griffin, Hawks, Pitts, Martin, Robinett, Webb
