II. Background and Purpose
Proposed to streamline justice funding and grant administration, the Edward Byrne
Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program allows states, tribes, and local
governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime
based on their own local needs and conditions. JAG blends previous Byrne Formula
and Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Programs to provide agencies
with the flexibility to prioritize and place justice funds where they are most needed.
III. Disparate Certification
Jurisdictions certified as disparate must submit a joint application for the aggregate
of funds allocated to them, specifying the amount of funds that are to be distributed
to each of the units of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be
used, and indicating who will serve as the applicant /fiscal agent for the joint funds.
The above jurisdictions are certified as disparate.
IV. Fiscal Agent and Fund Allocation
The City of Seattle will act as the applicant and will serve as the fiscal agent for the
joint funds. The City of Seattle will charge a 3% administrative fee for these
services.
