Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $19,000)

The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department is seeking grant funding in the amount of $19,000.00 for equipment needs for our agency, as well as our disparate counterparts in Miller County Arkansas.  The Miller County Sheriff’s Office has agreed to take approximately one-third of the awarded funds to settle the disparate certification.  Miller County will therefore be sub-awarded $6,334.00, and the Texarkana Arkansas Police Department will retain $12,666.00. 

The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department will use its share of the funds to purchase body armor that is specially designed and fitted to the individual officer’s body. 

The Miller County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) plans to utilize $6,334.00 in 2024 JAG funding to purchase two (2) Motorola APX radios.
