ITEM TITLE: Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City authorizing the acceptance of the Children Exposed to Domestic Violence (CEDV) Specialized Response Program Grant for two additional years in the amount of $350,000. . PREPARED BY: Lt. Keith Fifield DEPARTMENT: Police PHONE: 619-336-4514 APPROVED BY: EXPLANATION: On May 19th, 2009, the City of National City passed a resolution accepting the Children Exposed to Domestic Violence (CEDV) Specialized Response Program grant award for $200,000 each year for three years, for a total of $600,000. The three year funding ended on September 30, 2011. The State agency that administrates the CEDV grant, Cal-EMA, has offered National City an additional two years of funding at $175,000 each year for a total of $350,000 to continue the program. On November 28, 2011, the National City Police Department was notified that funding was approved and awarded for the 2011-2012 year in the amount $175,000. Cal-EMA also notified us that funding is extended to California Justice Act (CJA) grant recipients for a fifth year. This resolution would authorize formal acceptance of the award for 2011-2012 in the amount of $175,000 and authorize application and acceptance for a fifth year in 2012-2013 if continued funding for (CJA) programs is in fact made available. The awarded 2011-2012 grant EV11 04 8608 covers the period of October 1, 2011 to September 2012. CaI-EMA did not make award notifications until the end of November 2011 so these funds will cover the costs of the program retroactive to October 1, 2011.
