It is a formula grant <br /> that blends the previous Byrne Formula and Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) programs. <br /> JAG requires a single unit of county government to function as the applicant/fiscal agent to apply for, <br /> receive, and administer the funds on behalf of the entire county. A memorandum of understanding <br /> designated the County of Orange, Sheriff-Coroner Department as the lead agency for this program. <br /> <br /> For FY 2010, $205,899 has been allocated for Santa Ana. The City agreed to allocate 10 percent of <br /> the total funding, or $20,590, to the Orange County Pro-Active Methamphetamine Laboratory <br /> Investigative Team to supplement their resources. JAG also allows the fiscal agent for each county <br /> to use a portion of the award for costs associated with administering the funds. The Orange County <br /> Sheriff-Coroner Department will retain $18,531 (9.0 percent) for administrative fees. The remainder <br /> of the funds in the amount of $166,778 will be utilized by the Police Department for Gang and CCU <br /> overtime front line enforcement programs. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 20B-1 <br />
