July 28, 2014 Record of Action

1. ACCEPT staff report on the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant and Community Recidivism Reduction Grant programs; and,

2. PROVIDE direction to staff as necessary.

Approved as presented with the following direction to staff:

Byrne JAG Grant:

1. Staff needs to prioritize formation of JAG Steering Committee prior to the existing workgroup agreeing on a programmatic approach to the grant.

2. The JAG Steering Committee should be composed of 12-14 members, including "traditional" and "non-traditional" stakeholders as outlined in the State RFP.

3. Committee staff should schedule a special meeting of the Public Protection Committee to receive an update on the JAG Grant proposal development process prior to the November 24, 2014 submission deadline.

Community Recidivism Reduction Grant:

1. The $250,000 grant from the state should be competitively bid in the following increments: Two (2) $50,000 allocations to Juvenile programming and three (3) $50,000 allocations to adult programming.

2. For the three (3) $50,000 allocations to adult programming, the funding should be allocation to West, Central and East county programs equally. The funded programs should build off of existing programming established by the Community Corrections Partnership for the AB 109 population, but it is not a requirement that the Community Recidivism Reduction Grant funding be spent exclusively on the AB 109 population.
