Flescher, Chairman <br /> Indian River Board of County Commissioners <br /> 1801 27th Street <br /> Vero Beach, FL 32960-3388 <br /> Dear Chairman Flescher: <br /> The State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) is a payment program that is administered by the <br /> Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA). This program provides funding to <br /> participating jurisdictions for the partial reimbursement of costs incurred by incarcerating undocumented <br /> criminal aliens in their correctional facilities. <br /> I am pleased to inform you that through the efforts of my staff and the use of the consulting firm of <br /> Justice Benefits, Inc. (JBI) -that does the research, inputs the data in the proper format and submits the <br /> records -the Bureau of Justice Assistance has wire transferred $55,721.00 into the board's bank account. <br /> The invoice from the consulting firm for$10,029.78 will need to be paid from the proceeds which leaves <br /> a net of$45,691.22 from the FY 2013 SCAAP award. <br /> Beginning with FY 2007 SCAAP awards, SCAAP funds must be used for correctional purposes only. <br /> Consequently, I am requesting a check in the amount of$55,721.00, with the appropriate budget <br /> amendment into Corrections Operating Expenses, to pay the consulting firm and to augment funds needed <br /> for inmate care. <br /> If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Harry Hall at 978-6406. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Deryl Loar, Sheriff <br /> DL:heh <br /> cc: Harry E.
