WHEREAS the Michigan State Police awarded the Sheriff and Prosecuting Attorney funding for the FY

September 30, 2020; and
WHEREAS the grant award of $201,000 was approved by the Board of Commissioners with Miscellaneous
Resolution #19374; and
WHEREAS there is no grant match required in FY 2020, but the County has maintained the same level of
grant match funding after the State removed the match requirement in FY 2016; and
WHEREAS the Board of Commissioners approved use of the County General Fund/General Purpose
(GF/GP) non -departmental grant match in the amount of $134,000, consistent with previous years; and
WHEREAS the Sheriff's Office included $120,918 as a transfer in from the Sheriff's Restricted Law
Enforcement Enhancement Fund #21342 to cover the difference needed for the grant positions; and
WHEREAS the total NET Byrne program budget is $455,918, and the current breakdown of the funding
sources are as follows: grant funding of $201,000; County General Fund/General Purpose (GF/GP) non -
departmental grant match of $134,000; and the balance of $120,918 from the Sheriff's Restricted Law
Enforcement Enhancement Fund #21342 to fulfill the program funding obligation; and
WHEREAS the grant award provides partial funding of salary for one (1) special revenue (SR) full-time
eligible (FTE) Assistant Prosecutor position (#4010201-07207) in the Prosecuting Attorney's Office and (2)

WHEREAS after reviewing the current Federal Equitable Sharing Guidelines it has been discovered that
federal funds can only be paid for a required match, and since there is no longer a match requirement with
the Byrne Grant, the Federal forfeitures can no longer be used for this purpose; and
WHEREAS the explanation of permissible uses of grant funds found on page 18 of the Equitable Sharing
Guidelines states, "Matching federal grants—Shared funds may be used to pay the match requirement for
the salaries and benefits of current sworn and non -sworn law enforcement personnel funded by federal
grant programs provided the grant provision permits matching with federal funds,"; and
WHEREAS a request is being made for the consideration of an additional allocation from GF/GP non -
departmental grant match in the amount of $120,918 to cover the cost of the positions and comply with the
Equitable Sharing Guidelines.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners approves the
use of County General Fund/General Purpose (GF/GP) non -departmental grant match in the amount of
$120,918 to cover the additional funds needed for the grant positions included in the Oakland County NET
