On behalf of the applicant unit of local government named below, in support of that locality’s application for an
award under the FY 2024 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (“JAG”) Program, and further to
34 U.S.C. § 10153(a), I certify to the Office of Justice Programs (“OJP”), U.S. Department of Justice (“USDOJ”), that
all of the following are true and correct:
1.I am the chief executive of the applicant unit of local government named below, and I have the authority to make
the following representations on my own behalf as chief executive and on behalf of the applicant unit of local
government. I understand that these representations will be relied upon as material in any OJP decision to make
an award, under the application described above, to the applicant unit of local government.
2.I certify that no federal funds made available by the award (if any) that OJP makes based on the application
described above will be used to supplant local funds but will be used to increase the amounts of such funds that
would, in the absence of federal funds, be made available for law enforcement activities.
3.I assure that the application described above (and any amendment to that application) was submitted for review
to the governing body of the unit of local government (e.g., city council or county commission), or to an
organization designated by that governing body, not less than 30 days before the date of this certification.
4.I assure that, before the date of this certification— (a) the application described above (and any amendment to
that application) was made public; and (b) an opportunity to comment on that application (or amendment) was
provided to citizens and to neighborhood or community-based organizations, to the extent applicable law or
established procedure made such an opportunity available.
5.I assure that, for each fiscal year of the award (if any) that OJP makes based on the application described
above, the applicant unit of local government will maintain and report such data, records, and information
(programmatic and financial), as OJP may reasonably require.
6.I have carefully reviewed 34 U.S.C. § 10153(a)(5), and, with respect to the programs to be funded by the
award (if any), I hereby make the certification required by section 10153(a)(5), as to each of the items specified
therein.
7.If the applicant named below is not the unit of local government itself, I certify that it is an instrumentality of
the unit of local government and is approved to serve as the applicant and recipient of FY 2024 JAG funding
on behalf of the unit of local government.
