OFFICER SAFETY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM
July 8, 2008
The City of El Cajon is applying for a $18,045 federal grant to help fund the upgrading and enhancement of the Police Department’s equipment as it relates to officer safety. Funding opportunities have been made available to law enforcement agencies under the U.S. Department of Justice grant program known as the FY 2008 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program. The JAG Program replaced the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Program that provided local funding to the City of El Cajon since the mid-1990s. The City’s application and expenditure plan was presented at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting on June 24, 2008. Copies of the application and expenditure plan are available for review by interested parties at El Cajon Police Department, 100 Fletcher Parkway. A summary of the grant application will also be available for review and comment on El Cajon Police Department’s web page, www.elcajonpolice.org.
