Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $37,516)

The disparate jurisdictions of Hays County and the City of San Marcos will use JAG funds to enhance daily law enforcement operations through the purchase of key equipment. Specifically, the county of Hays will use JAG funds to purchase bulletproof vests for the Sheriff's office to increase officer safety, and the city of San Marcos will use JAG funds to purchase forensic and surveillance equipment as well as to enhance existing software. Both jurisdictions expect the grant-funded purchases to strengthen officers’ abilities to perform their duties.
