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.

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.
