Agenda Item Text:
Approve State Homeland Security Grant 14 AZDOHS-HSGP-140400-01 to fund miscellaneous supplies, equipment and training for Citizen Corp volunteer groups in Cochise County in the amount of $4,800.
Background:
The annual State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP) funds public safety programs throughout Arizona. This is a Federal grant administered through Arizona Department of Homeland Security (AZDOHS). This grant project was approved and awarded by AZDOHS to Cochise County OES for the time period of October 1, 2014 - September 30, 2015.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
If approved the $4800 in grant funds will be used by OES to promote training and purchase needed supplies for Citizen Corp groups in the County.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
If not approved there would be little to no funding to support local Citizen Corp group preparedness activities.
Alternative: Return the grant funds to AZDOHS.
