To the Honorable Board:

 

I respectfully request that your Board accept a grant from the Office of Public Safety and Security to reimburse the Somerville Police Department for Pedestrian Safety Initiatives not to exceed $5,000.00. The purpose of this grant is to increase traffic enforcement and pedestrian safety in high incident locations.

In accordance with M.G.L., Chapter 44, Section 53A, which requires a vote of the Board of Alderman for the expenditure of grants, or gifts from the federal government and from charitable foundation, private corporation, or an individual, or from the Commonwealth, a County or Municipality or agency thereof, I request that you accept this grant for final approval.

Respectfully submitted,
