CITY OF LUBBOCK
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: June 16, 1971
FROM: Lyn Turner, Chairman Lubbock Commission to Combat Drug Abuse
SUBJECT: Application for Criminal Justice Council Funds
On May 27, 1971, the City Council approved in principle our proposal to submit an application
for Criminal Justice funds to finance a program to curtail drug abuse. The Council requested
additional information regarding the City share in cash and. in -kind credits. The preliminary
budget presented on May 27 called for a $31,676 program with the local share amounting to
$12,670. It was anticipated that $7,465 in in -kind credits could be obtained from the City and
other sources leaving a balance of $5,205 in cash requirements. However, due to an amendment
to the law providing these funds, the local match requirements are now 25%. Therefore, a cash
contribution is no::longer needed.
Attached is the revised budget and analysis for your consideration. You will note that the
total program cost has increased from $31,676 to $33,222. This change has resulted from our
being able to obtain additional in -kind credits. None of the increase is attributable to
increased cash expenditures.
On June 24 our proposal will go before the regional Criminal Justice Advisory Committee for
their review and comment. On July 15, the regional Criminal Justice Board will review and
comment and forward our proposal to Austin. The decision by the State Criminal Justice
Organization will be made on August 13 as.to approval or disapproval.
