Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

I respectfully request that your Honorable Board accept a grant of $25,602.00 from Metro Mayors Shannon Initiative to the Police Department under the provisions of MGL Chapter 44, Section 53A. This grant requires some level of matching funds from the city. The purpose of this grant is to be used in a manner consistent with the strategies and objectives outlined in the Metro Mayors CSI Shannon Grant. Awarded funds can be used to supplement but not supplant any current youth violence prevention and anti-gang efforts.

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank your for your consideration of this item.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
