Resolution to apply for the annual Bryne Memorial JAG Grant, Local Solicitation and enter into an Interlocal Agreement with Pottawattamie County to share these funds.

The city of Council Bluffs is eligible to apply for a Bryne Memorial JAG Grant in the amount of $54,346. This is a grant the city has received since the mid-2000's. 

This grant is traditionally split 50/50 with Pottawattamie County and will be again this year. 

The grant is applied for and monitored by the city of Council Bluffs.

In addition to the application, an Interlocal Agreement between the city and Pottawattamie County is required.

I recommend that the City Council authorize the Police Department to apply for the annual Bryne Memorial JAG Grant. Further, I recommend the city enter into a Interlocal Agreement with Pottawattamie County to share these grant funds.
