Re: COPS Hiring Recovery Program Grant # 2009RKWX0233
ORI#: FL04400
Dear SheriffPeryam:
Once again, I would like to congratulate you on receiving a COPS Hiring Recovery Program
(CHRP) award. Your award is for 5 officer positions and $1,010,715 in federal funds over a three-
year grant period. Your agency may now begin hiring or rehiring officers to fill CHRP grant-funded
positions.
Enclosed in this package is your grant award. The Award Document must be signed and
returned to the COPS Office within 90 days to officially accept your grant. The Frequently
Asked Questions (F AQ) document included in this package should be helpful in answering any
questions you may have about accepting your award, or requesting additional time to do so.
Beginning on the reverse side of your A ward Document, you will find a total of three pages
ofCHRP Grant Terms and Conditions. You should read and familiarize yourself with all 16 terms
and conditions that apply to your CHRP award.
A supplemental online award package for CRR? grantees can be found at
http://www.cops.usdoi.govlDefault.asp?Item=2271. We strongly encourage you to visit this site
immediately to access a variety of important and helpful documents associated with your award,
including the CHRP Grant Owner's Manual, which specifies the terms, conditions, and requirements
of your grant. Also, within a few weeks you should receive an important package from the Office of
the Chief Financial Officer, Office of Justice Programs, which will contain the forms and instructions
necessary to begin drawing down funds for your grant.
As mentioned at the time of announcement, each CHRP application was subject to a thorough
review, and some of your application information may have been updated or corrected from the
original version submitted to COPS. If you have not yet done so, please access your application at
http://www.cops.usdoi.govlDefault.asp?Item=464, and print and maintain a final copy for your
records (if you are unable to print a copy of your application, please contact the COPS Office at
800.421.6770).
The Financial Clearance Memorandum (FCM) and Final Funding Memorandum (FFM)
included in this package reflect allowable costs and amounts under your award. The FCM specifies
the amount of COPS Hiring Recovery Program funds awarded to your agency for officer salaries and
approved benefits, while the FFM contains the final officer salary and fringe benefit categories and
!
amounts for which your agency was approved. Please review both documents carefully, as your
agency may only be reimbursed for the amounts and approved cost categories indicated.
As a reminder, under CHRP all positions awarded (or an equal number of veteran officers)
must initiate or enhance community policing in accordance with the community policing plan as
described within Section 5 of your application. If for any reason your agency fmds that your
community policing plans have significantly changed from those outlined in your application (e.g.,
because you received fewer officers than originally requested and thus must alter the scope of your
community policing plans), please revise the plan accordingly and submit it to the COPS Office for
review and approval. You should also contact the COPS Office if, for any reason, you need to modify
your grant award. This includes any reallocation of your awarded positions across the three primary
hiring categories (Le., new hires, rehires of officers laid off pre-application, and rehires of officers laid
off or scheduled to be laid off post-application).
As explained at the time of grant application, there are significant reporting requirements on
the use of CHRP funds. In addition to quarterly financial and programmatic progress reports
submitted to the COPS Office, CHRP grantees are also required to submit quarterly Recovery Act
reports within 10 days after the end of each calendar quarter to www.FederaIReporting.gov. These
Recovery Act reports will be made available to the public on www.Recoverv.gov. All grantees must
be registered as authorized users prior to submitting reports to www.FederaIReporting.gov. The
registration function on www.FederaIReporting.gov will be available no later than August 26,2009.
Please note that registration with this website also requires users to be registered with the Central
Contractor Registration (CCR) and have a Dun & Bradstreet Data Universal Numbering System
(DUNS) number. Registering with CCR and obtaining a DUNS number take additional processing
time, so your agency should take immediate steps to meet these requirements in advance of
registration with www.FederaIReporting.gov. For additional infonnation on CCR and DUNS, please
refer to the CHRP Grant Owner's Manual at http://www.cops.usdoi.gov/Default.asp?Item=2270.
Finally, please remember that grantees must retain all sworn officer positions awarded under
the CHRP grant for a minimum of 12 months following the 36-month federal funding period. The
retained CHRP-funded position(s) should be added to your law enforcement budget with state and/or
local funds, over and above the number oflocally-funded positions that would have existed in the
absence of the grant. In your CHRP grant application, your agency was required to affinn that it plans
to retain the additional officer positions awarded following the expiration of the grant, and to identify
the planned sources of retention funding. If, during the life of the grant, you have questions regarding
the retention requirement or your retention funding sources, please contact the COPS Office for
assistance.
Once again, congratulations on your CHRP award. If you have any questions about your
grant, please do not hesitate to call the COPS Office Response Center at 800.421.6770.
Sincerely,
~.
David M. Buchanan

COPS Hiring Recovery Program Grant Terms and Conditions
By signing the Award Document to accept this COPS Hiring Recovery Program (CHRP) grant, the grantee agrees to abide by the following
grant terms and conditions:

statute (42 U.S,c. g, 3796dd, et seq.); 28 C.F.R. Part 66 or 28 C.F,R, Part 70 as applicable (governing administrative requirements for
grants and cooperative agreements); 2 C.F.R, Part 225 (OMB Circular A-87), 2 C,F.R. Part 220 (OMB Circular A-21), 2 C,F,R, Part
230 (OMB Circular A-122) and 48 C,F,R. Part 31.000 et seq. (FAR 31.2) as applicable (governing cost principles); OMB Circular A-
133 (governing audits); American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) of 2009, P.L.1l1-5; representations made in the
COPS Hiring Recovery Program grant application; and all other applicable program requirements, Jaws, orders, regulations, or
circulars,
2. The grantee agrees to comply with the Assurances and Certifications forms that were submitted as part of its COPS Hiring Recovery
Program application.
3. The funding under this project is for the payment of approved full-time entry-level sworn officer salaries and fringe benefits over three
years (for a total of 36 months of funding) for new or rehired additional, career law enforcement officer positions, hired on or after the
award start date. The Financial Clearance Memorandum included in your award packet specifies the costs that the grantee is allowed
to fund with your CHRP award. It will also describe any costs which have been disallowed after review of your proposed budget. The
grantee may not use CHRP funds for anything not identified as allowable in the Financial Clearance Memorandum,
4. CHRPgrant funds may not be used to replace state or local funds (or, for tribal grantees, Bureau ofIndian Affairs funds) that would,
in the absence of federal aid, be made available for hiring and/or rehiring full-time career law enforcement officer positions.
5. At the time of grant application, the grantee committed to retaining all CHRP officer positions awarded with state and/or local funds
for a minimum of 12 months at the conclusion of 36 months of federal funding for each position, over and above the number of
locally-funded positions that would have existed in the absence of the grant. You cannot satisfy the retention requirement by using
CHRP positions to fill vacancies from attrition.
6. The grantee may request an extension of the grant award period to receive additional time to implement the grant program Such
extensions do not provide additional funding. Only those grantees that can provide a reasonable justification for delays will be granted
no-cost extensions, Reasonable justifications may include delays in hiring COPS-funded positions, officer turnover, or other
circumstances that interrupt the 36-month grant funding period. An extension allows the grantee to compensate for such delays by
providing additional time to complete the full 36 months of funding for each position awarded, Extension requests must be received
vrior to the end date o(the award. as extension requests received a(ter an award has exvired will be avvroved only under very limited
circumstances,
7. During the CHRP grant award period, it may become necessary for an agency to modify its CHRP grant award due to changes in an
agency's fiscal or law enforcement situation. For instance, modification requests should be submitted to the COPS Office when an
agency determines that it will need to shift officer positions awarded in one hiring category into a different hiring category or reduce
the total number of positions awarded. Grant modifications under CHRP are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. All modification
requests must be approved, in writing, by the COPS Office prior to their implementation. In addition, please be aware that the COPS
Office will not approve any modification request that results in an increase of federal funds.
8. The COPS Office may conduct monitoring or sponsor national evaluations of the COPS Hiring Recovery Program. The grantee agrees
to cooperate with the monitors and evaluators,
9. To assist the COPS Office in the monitoring of your award, the grantee agrees to submit quarterly programmatic progress reports and
quarterly financial reports in addition to any reports required by the Recovery Act. The grantee also agrees to submit all requested
reports in a timely manner,
10. The COPS Office performs various functions to ensure compliance with all grant requirements, to assess the implementation of
conununity policing in awarded jurisdictions, and to provide technical assistance to grantees. Grant monitoring activities are routine
during the grant period and may occur up to three years following the official closure of the grant award, These functions, and others,
often require the production of grant-related documentation and other materials. As a COPS CHRP grantee, you agree to cooperate
with any such requests for information.
11. The grantee agrees to comply with the federal regulations pertaining to the development and implementation of an Equal Employment
Opportunity Plan (28 C,F,R. Part 42 subpart E), For assistance, grantees should consult the Office of Justice Programs, Office for
Civil Rights web site at WWW.OiD.Usdoj,gov/aboutJocr/eeop,htm,

funding; and c) how the grantee will use the funds to reorient its mission or enhance its commitment to community policing.
14. Grantees that provide law enforcement services to another jurisdiction through a contract must ensure that officers funded under this
CHRP grant do not service the other jurisdiction, but will only be involved in activities or perform services that exclusively benefit the
grantee's own jurisdiction. Grantees cannot use CHRP funds to pay for a contract to receive law enforcement services from another
agency.
15. False statements or claims made in connection with COPS grants may result in fines, imprisonment, or debarment from participating
in federal grants or contracts, and/or any other remedy available by law.
16, The grantee understands that the COPS Hiring Recovery Program is funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act
(Recovery Act) of 2009 and agrees to comply with the extensive accountability and transparency requirements on the use of
Recovery Act funds:
(A) Recoverv Act Transactions Listed in Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and Recipient Responsibilities for Informing
Subrecipients
(1) To maximize the transparency and accountability of funds authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
(Public Law 111-5) (Recovery Act) as required by Congress and in accordance with 28 C.F.R 70 "Uniform Administrative
Requirements for Grants and Agreements for Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals and Other Non-Profit Organizations" and 28
C.F.R. 66 "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements for State and Local Governments," the recipient agrees
to maintain records that identify adequately the source and application of Recovery Act funds.
(2) For a recipient covered by the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and OMB Circular A-l33, "Audits of States, Local
Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations," the recipient agrees to separately identify the expenditures for federal awards under the
Recovery Act on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) and the Data Collection Form (SF-SAC) required by OMB
Circular A-133. This shall be accomplished by identifying expenditures for federal awards made underthe Recovery Act separately on
the SEFA, and as separate rows under Item 9 of Part III on the SF-SAC by CFDA number, and inclusion of the prefix "ARRA-" in
identifying the name of the federal program on the SEFA and as the first characters in Item 9d of Part 1lI on the SF-SAC.
(3) The recipient agrees to separately identify to each sub-recipient (if any) and document at the time of sub-award and at the time of
disbursement of funds, the federal award number, CFDA number, and amount of Recovery Act funds. When a recipient awards
Recovery Act funds for an existing program, the information furnished to sub-recipients shall distinguish the sub-awards of
incremental Recovery Act funds from regular sub-awards under the existing program.
(4) The recipient agrees to require their sub-recipients (if any) to include on their SEF A information to specifically identify Recovery
Act funding similar to the requirements for the recipient SEF A described above. This information is needed to allow the recipient to
properly monitor sub-recipient expenditure of Recovery Act funds as well as oversight by the Department of Justice, Office of the
Inspector General and Government Accountability Office.
(B) Recipient Reports and Central Contractor Registration
(1) The recipient agrees to complete projects or activities which are funded under the Recovery Act and to report on use of Recovery
Act funds provided through this award. Information from these reports will be made available to the public.
(2) The reports are due no later than ten calendar days after each calendar quarter in which the recipient receives the assistance award
