| Major Program Proposals: | 2007 Estimate |
2008 Request |
|---|---|---|
| 1. COPS Training and Technical Assistance Program/Community Policing Development | $ 3,464 | $ 4,000 |
| The budget proposes a total of $4,000,000 for this program to support the adoption and advancement of community policing practices through training, technical assistance, applied research, and evaluation initiatives that address the existing and emerging priorities of the law enforcement community. This compares to a 2007 estimated level of $3,464,000. | ||
| 2. Management and Administration | $ 13,340 | $ 28,308 |
| The 2008 budget proposes to fund COPS' entire management and administration activities through new appropriations as a line-item to provide a stable source of funding for base program operations. In contrast, the 2007 estimate funds these costs from a combination of new appropriations and prior year recovered funds, providing a net total in new appropriations of $13,340,000. Funding will be used to pay for the staff who are responsible not only for awarding new grants but for overseeing and maintaining 15,000 currently active grants worth a total of $5.5 billion. In addition, the budget proposes a decrease of 36 positions and 36 FTE to eliminate staff positions for which there is not sufficient funding due to the absorption of enacted rescissions, pay raises, and other mandatory cost increases. | ||
