GRANT APPLICATION FOR GOVERNOR'S CRIME COMMISSION, TRI -COUNTY DRUG GRANT: Sheriff Clyde Lloyd
presented the board with an application for a grant in the amount of $261,000 from the Governor's
Crime Commission. The grant is called a multi -agency grant and covers Catawba, Alexander and
Iredell Counties as well as the municipalities within those counties. There will be a tri -county
drug task force, the sheriff said. The reason for the creation of the tri -county task force is
because it is easier to get the State funds under this concept than under a single county applica-
tion, the sheriff said.
„ew Budget for the first year is $171,281, which involves first-year purchase of some equipment,
according to Sheriff Lloyd. The following is the amount each government entity would be required to
fund:
Iredell County $11,022.58
Statesville 3,674.00
Troutman 334.00
Mooresville 1,670.00
TOTAL $16,700.00
This is a 75/25 matching fund grant, with the counties paying the 25% for two years. Second
year financing is $140,000, with a total funding of the counties of 25% of that amount also.
Part of work of this task force will be working the interstates, the sheriff said. They plan
