Award Information
Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2023, $119,030)
The Nampa Police Department (NPD), the Caldwell Police Department (CPD), and Canyon County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) are requesting funding to purchase equipment for law enforcement programs. This request is consistent with the approved program areas and purpose of the Byrne JAG Program. All three law enforcement departments put officer safety, traffic enforcement, and effective evidence collection at a high importance. The agencies have identified specific areas within their jurisdiction that will effectively address permissible uses of JAG funds and provide our agencies with a means to improve and expand on our current effort to work in a cooperative effort with community leaders, citizens, and employees to reduce crime. With funds received from the 2023 BJAG, we will be able to provide officer safety to individuals and teams and serve our victims of crime by providing more effective investigation measures in the prosecution of crimes.
