ATTESTED: December 11, 2012 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: Carrie Del Bonta, Deputy cc: C. 53 To:Board of Supervisors From:Mark Peterson, District Attorney Date:December 11, 2012 Contra Costa County 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 will not be able to formally accept the grant. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: No impact. ATTACHMENTS Resolution No. 2012/514
