Police In-Car Video Systems Project

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 program 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 city of Elk Grove will utilize the FY 2014 JAG award to purchase police in-car video systems for the Elk Grove Police Department. This purchase will assist the police department in maintaining updated and reliable police in-car video systems that support law enforcement's efforts to provide a safe environment for its officers and the community.
