Crime Analysis Software, Sheriff Patrol Vehicles, and Training Ammunition

The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) allows states and units of local government, including tribes, to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on their own state and local needs and conditions. Grant funds can be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and information systems for criminal justice, including for any one or more of the following purpose areas: 1) law enforcement programs; 2) prosecution and court programs; 3) prevention and education programs; 4) corrections and community corrections programs; 5) drug treatment and enforcement programs; 6) planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs; and 7) crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation).

The disparate jurisdictions, consisting of the city of Springfield and Green County, will share the JAG grant award. Springfield City will serve as the fiscal agent for the grant award. The city of Springfield will use their share of the grant funds to purchase i2's comprehensive analysis solution to interface with the Niche records management system. Green County will use their share of the grant funds to purchase vehicles for the Sheriff's Department Patrol Division.
