10. EXCEPTION TO THE POLICY FOR ADMINISTERING GRANTS (A2505) TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE Approve an exception to the Policy for Administering Grants (A2505) Section D. 1 to the Sheriff's Office for FY 2010 that would allow the Sheriff's Office to apply for unnamed law enforcement or detention related grants and/or agreements that may or may not allow indirect cost recovery. Approval of this item authorizes application only and the Sheriff's Office will return to the Board for approval to accept any specific awards granted. Each subsequent request to accept an award will be presented as a new agenda item with a unique number. The Sheriff’s Office indirect cost rate for FY 2009 is 12.2%. The Board has approved similar annual requests for the Sheriff’s Office over the past several years. (C-50-09-059-G-00)

12. ACCEPT STATE CRIMINAL ALIEN ASSISTANCE (SCAAP) FUNDS Approve acceptance of $4,006,872 in FY 2009 reimbursement funding from the Bureau of Justice Assistance, State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP). The corresponding application was filed under BOS Agenda C-50-09-059-G-00, approved on April 1, 2009. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. The Sheriff's Office has applied for this formula-based reimbursement on behalf of the County for many years. SCAAP reimburses state and local government agencies a portion of the costs to incarcerate undocumented criminal aliens who are convicted of felony offenses. Indirect costs are not recoverable since only staff whose primary responsibility is the care, custody, or supervision of persons detained (pre-trial detention) and incarcerated (convicted and sentenced) inmates are allowable in the calculation. Use of award funds has been designated by the Bureau of Justice Assistance for corrections purposes only. (C-50-10-060-M-00)
