14. ACCEPT GRANT FUNDING FROM THE ARIZONA CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMMISSION FOR FY25 DRUG, GANG, AND VIOLENT CRIME PROGRAM Approve the application and acceptance of grant funds from the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission (ACJC) through the FY 2024-2025 Drug, Gang, and Violent Crime Program in the amount of $807,390.75, which includes: $712,905.83 in Federal funds under CFDA 16.738 and $94,484.92 in State funds. This program requires a cash match of 25%, or $269,130.25. The total award is $1,076,521. These funds are for the enhancement of drug, gang, and violent crime prosecution. This grant agreement, ACJC number DC-25-027, commences on July 1, 2024, and will terminate on June 30, 2025. Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable. The grant funds, $807,390.75, may not be expended for any indirect costs which may be incurred by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office or Maricopa County for the administration of this grant (Agreement Page 8, Paragraph 35). The grant allows a 0% rate for indirect costs or $0 that may be incurred by the County Attorney's Office or Maricopa County for the administration of this grant. The Maricopa County Attorney's Office's composite indirect cost rate for FY25 is 15.530%, or $125,387.78. The recoverable indirect cost of administering this grant is $0; the non-recoverable indirect cost is $125,387.78. Nonrecoverable indirect costs will be covered by the departmental general fund budget. The 25% match requirement will be covered by the departmental general fund. The grant is competitive and reoccurring and does not require ongoing cash contributions after the grant period's end date. This funding directly supports the mandated function of prosecution of criminal cases. Grant revenues are not "local revenues" for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore budget law does not prohibit the expenditure of these funds. (C-19-24-138-X-00)
