Title
Resolution amending the funding of the FY2021 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG).
Analysis
This resolution amends Common Council File Number 220421 relating to acceptance and funding of the FY2021 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG).

The City will serve as the fiscal agent on behalf of the Cities of Milwaukee and West Allis, and Milwaukee County with funding for all units of local government to be used to pursue criminal justice activities as guided by local Memorandum of Understanding.
