The Collier County Sheriff's Office will use its JAG award to fund overtime and provide benefits for personnel. Overtime shifts will help maintain a low crime rate in areas with an increasing number of visitors and residents. JAG funding will help ensure public safety through increased patrols and visibility of law enforcement officers.
