2. Request for Permission to Apply for a Local Law Enforcement Block Grant for the
Purchase of a Reverse 911 Interactive Community Notification System: During the
briefing, Sgt. Neil Hayes, with the sheriffs department, explained that this was a 90%-10% grant
with matching funds to come from seized drug funds. He said the sheriffs department desired to
purchase a Reverse 911 system. Hayes said the federal amount in the grant would be $36,812,
and the seized fund amount would be $4,090. Sgt. Hayes said the system would be housed at the
sheriffs department and would be used for circumstances such as, "lost children alerts and
emergency drills at McGuire Nuclear Power Plant." Hayes said the system would enable the
department to target specific geographic areas and send telephone alerts. He added the
department would be conservative in the system's usage to maintain its credibility and
effectiveness.

seized funds = $3,800): During the agenda briefing, Sgt. Neil Hayes said permission was given in
2000-01 to apply and receive the interdiction team grant. For 2001-02, Hayes said grant funds of
$1,500 were awarded with a needed 50% match. However, he said the combined amount of the

a total of $2,300 be derived from seized funds to match the grant and to enable the department to
maintain the phone system.
