Re: Operating Budget
The State of Hawaii Department of the Attorney General's Crime Prevention and
Justice Assistance Division has authorized a $47,438 Specialized Investigative Training
Grant to the Police Department. The grant's purpose is to improve the department's
ability to respond to violent crimes against women through ongoing specialized training
for the Juvenile Aid Section detectives.
A Specialized Investigative Training Grant account was appropriated for $55,000 in
anticipation of grant funding for FY2010 -11. Earlier this year, the Police Department
accepted grant funds for this program in the amount of $31,298 which was reported to
Council. In order to accept an additional grant of $47,438, with nearly identical
parameters, the Police Department wishes to appropriate an additional $23,736 to this
account.
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by increasing the
total appropriation in the Specialized Investigative Training Grant account by $23,736.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call Nori Ishii of the Hawai'i County
Police Department at 961 -2273.
