Analysis The Alameda County Sheriff’s Office submits the JAG grant application on behalf of eligible Alameda County cities and the county. The grant has a four-year span and does not require matching funds. The City of San Leandro was awarded $33,331 in 2019 JAG grand funds. The Sheriff’s Office shall retain 10% ($3,333.10) of the grant for administrative fees covering grant management, application processing, and financial and auditing services. Additionally, 3% ($999.93) of the grant must be set aside for the implementation of the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). The Police Department will allocate $29,997.90 of its 2019 JAG funding (including 3% NIBRS set-aside and after the 10% administrative fee) to purchase two Kinetic Breaching Tools. Acquiring these tools will significantly enhance the department’s tactical efficiency, improve safety for both officers and civilians, and increase operational versatility during critical incidents.
