State Court Adtninisma tor February 6. 2001 Honorable Brian MacKenzie 52'4 District Court 42150 Grand River Ave. Novi, MI 48374-1222 Dear Judge MacKenzie: Pursuant to our conversation this morning regarding the Michigan Drug Court Grant Program, I am providing information concerning Assurance #4 in the application materials. The assurances included in the Michigan Drug Court Grant application materials are the same as the assurances required to apply for and accept federal program funding for drug court programs. Assurance #4 culls for the applicant to provide assurance of a program's intent to continue funding whether that be from local, other state, or federal sources of funding. The Michigan Drug Court Grant Program is a mato-appropriated program funded with limited general fund dollars. The funding is intended to assist in developing and implementing new programs and provide limited support to continuing programs. It is, however, the program's responsibility to eventually seek additional sources of funding. This should not be construed as a mandate for future funding of a program from the funding unit. If you have any further questions, please contact me. Sincerely, • I .„ 7 Dawn A.

The award from SCAO is for $105,000. Including $33,914 in County's match and the use of $50,182 from Substance Abuse Funding, the total program amount equals $189,096. 3. Of the $33,914 in County match, $32,828 will be an in-kind match using current County resources. The remaining $1,086 is required to be a cash match. This match was not anticipated in the FY 2001 budget; therefore, a transfer from the FY 2001 non-departmental Contingency account is recommended. 4. The Substance Abuse funding is already included in the Health Division's Substance Abuse grant; therefore no amendments are required to utilize these funds with this Drug Court grant. 5. The grant application included the creation of one (1) full-time eligible special revenue Child Welfare Worker II position and one (1) full-time eligible special revenue Community Service Coordinator position to be placed within the Circuit Court Family Division. One-half (50%) of the funding for the Community Service Coordinator will be derived from the Circuit Court Adult grant. 6. According to the current agreement language, acceptance of this grant will require the County to continue the program beyond the grant funding period. 7. The Fiscal Year 2001 Special Revenue budget should be amended as follows to add the new Circuit Court Family Division Michigan Drug Court grant: General Fund 2-90-101-290000-25000-2564 Contingency $ (1,086) 2-35-101-242000-11000-0167 Grant Match $ 1,086 0 FINANCE COMMITTEE: Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote with Palmer absent.
