JAIBG JUVENILE CRIME ENFORCEMENT COALITION PLAN
On June 24, 2001, a JAIBG Juvenile Crime Enforcement Coalition met
to conduct a needs assessment to determine priority areas for the
investment of the JAIBG funds. The coalition, consisting of police,
educators, juvenile justice agency officials, youth service providers, and
community leaders, developed a coordinated enforcement plan that
provides the basis for distribution, and expenditure of these JAIBG
funds. After much consideration, the coalition proposed that it would be
most beneficial to Lubbock County citizens for the City of Lubbock to
waive its funding to Lubbock County, specifically to the Lubbock
County Juvenile Justice Center, whereby the funds would be used to
support the following programs (details included in attachments):
4th Corp Program
Program for At -Risk Students (PAS) & Juvenile Justice Awareness
Summer Program
Counseling and Needs Assessment Program for JJAEP students
Drug and Alcohol Program for JJAEP students
Counseling & Substance Abuse Education Services for LCJJC
It is believed that by collaborating with the various agencies involved,
staff will be able to reduce juvenile delinquency, and prevent next -
generation Lubbock youth from entering the juvenile justice system. The
community as a whole will share in the responsibility of supervising,
teaching, and supporting the positive development of these youth while
holding the juveniles accountable for their wrongdoings.
Staff recommended approval of this resolution.
(63.) Resolution No. 2001-R0236/BID #2001-SD001— Bus Route Signs
(Citibus).
This bid is for the purchase of 850 bus route signs to be used by Citibus.
The new signs will be placed on the newly implemented Route 25
(East/West Express), and they will replace outdated signs on other
routes. Low bid to meet all specifications was Sign Pro at a price of
$49.62 per sign, or $42,177 for 850 signs. The signs are to be delivered
30 days after receipt of the order, barring any complications. The
Federal Transit Administration will cover 80 % of this amount and the
remaining 20 % will come from this year's Citibus budget. No additional
funding will be needed from the City of Lubbock.
Citibus recommended that Bid #2001-SD001 be awarded to Sign Pro for
$49.62 per sign, or total cost of $42,177.
