Subject:Approval to Submit Application and Execute Grant Award Agreement for funding of Regional Anti-Drug Abuse
Program Grant
BACKGROUND:
The Regional Anti-Drug Abuse Program has been in effect since fiscal year 1995/96 and funds three components
including the District Attorney, Sheriff-Coroner and Probation Department. As in prior funding cycles, the State
requires that a single application be submitted for each County; therefore, the District Attorney is submitting an
application on behalf of Contra Costa County. The program will continue to concentrate on a prioritized and
integrated drug enforcement effort coordinated through State-led Narcotics Enforcement Teams operating in the
County. Grant activities focus on mid and high-level narcotics dealers and manufacturers, violent and repeat
offenders, and drug trafficking gangs and organizations, to interdict the importation, manufacture and distribution
systems which have, in recent years, become more sophisticated in their methods of operations.
Grant conditions require that the County accept responsibility for any liability arising out of the performance of
the grant award, including civil actions for damages, and supplantation is prohibited.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The District Attorney would be unable to submit a grant application and ultimately accept the grant without
approval from the Board of Supervisors.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
