RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors:
Adopt a resolution authorizing the District Attorney of the County of Monterey, on behalf of the County, to submit a proposal to the California Department of Emergency Services (CalOES) and to execute on behalf of the County the Grant Award Agreement including any extension or amendments thereof.
SUMMARY:
The Monterey County District Attorney's Office (DA) relies on a variety of Federal and State grants to provide a portion of the financial support required by the Department for the services it provides in the County. The DA is requesting authorization to apply to CalOES for the (KC) Child Advocacy Program, to provide services from April 1, 2023, through March 31, 2024.
DISCUSSION:
Approval of the recommended action will allow the District Attorney to submit the approved Board Resolution as verification of Board approval granting authority to sign the grant agreements for funding for the (KC) grant. The ongoing grant agreements and/or amendments will be based on similar terms as existing agreements.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None
FINANCING:
If approved by CalOES, the subject grant funds for FY 2022-23 will be submitted to the Budget Committee and the Board for approval, and included in the submission of the FY 2023-24 budget. Approval of this request and the receipt of the subject grants will have no new impact on the County General Fund.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STRATEGIC INITIATIVES:
Approval of this request will increase public safety throughout the county by the increased prosecution efforts protecting children.
