RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE Appropriation Adjustment No. 5043 authorizing new revenue in the Sheriff's Office (0255) in the amount of $558,208 from the U.S. Department of Justice, 2008 COPS Technology Program Grant and appropriating it for the development of the Automated Regional Information Exchange System (ARIES) project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action increases revenue and appropriations by $558,208. CFDA No. 16.710.
BACKGROUND:
In January 2007, the County submitted a Federal Fiscal Year 2008 appropriation request to our federal delegation in the amount of $1,000,000 for the ARIES project. Owing to the support of our legislators, Chair and Vice Chair of the Board of Supervisors (who personally lobbied for the project), and our federal advocate, the Office of the Sheriff was notified that the County would receive $658,000 (less administrative costs) for ARIES.
