The total FY97 allocation to Palm Beach County was West Palm Beach,FL 33401-4705 $662,485. (561)355-4943 Suncom: 273-4943 Subsequently, the CJC with agreement from the Department of Juvenile Justice withdrew the Fax:(561)355-4941 Juvenile Assessment Center(JAC) application for funding, due to extensive delays in building renovations which have prevented them from opening. Thus, the CJC initiated a second RFP process for the $188,126 federal funds previously awarded to the JAC for FY97. The Criminal Justice"Commission recommends that the$188,126 federal funding be reallocated as follows: ■ Title of Project • Grant administered by Agency Federal Funds Donald M.Middlebrooks,Chairman Gang&Drug Resistance Palm Beach County Sheriff's $84,063 Education Office Max Davis.Vice Chairman • - Daniel R.McBride.Secretary Weed and Seed Program City of West Palm Beach- $84,063 Police Department Randolph K.Johnson.Sr..Treasurer Palm Beach County Youth Palm Beach County School $20,000 • Court Board Police Executive Director • Each agency must provide no less than a 25%cash match. L.Diana Cunningham The Florida Department of Community Affairs requires that 51 per cent of the local units of government representing 51 per cent of the county's population agree on the allocation of these funds. Since changes have been made in the funding request for FY97, new letters are needed for approval of these changes. If you approve the new allocation as set forth above, please prepare a letter stating your approval. A sample letter has been provided for your use. Because funds need to be expended for FY97,time is of the essence. This letter must be received at the Criminal Justice Commission offices, no later than November 15,1996 for the Board of County Commissioners to approve the applications for.funding at its' December 3, 1996 meeting. Please send the letter to: Criminal Justice Commission ATTN: Lisa Diamond 301 N.Olive Avenue,Suite 1001 West Palm Beach,FL 33401-4705 If you would like an explanation of these programs or have any questions, please contact me at 355-4943.
