FY 24 JAG-D Grant
body
REQUESTED MOTION:
To approve the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office JAG-C Grant application.
SUMMARY:
The 2024 JAG-D funding will be used to purchase specialized equipment for the SWAT Team. The rifles SWAT currently use are old and need to be retired. This grant allows rotating out some of the aging rifles and to purchase suppressors. This will allow the SWAT Team to follow the growing trend among law enforcement which is to use the suppressors for better hearing protection for the officers.
BACKGROUND:
The yearly JAG-D grant from FDLE goes directly to DeSoto County for several different purposes with the top being law enforcement programs or initiatives. This year’s amount is $5,246.00 with no split involved.
