No matching funds are required of the City of Miami. BACKGROUND The Police Department will utilize these funds, which is available through the Monroe County Sheriffs Office, to support its efforts to eliminate or significantly reduce drug trafficking and related crime, to reduce or eliminate factors leading to drug abuse, and to nurture and develop indigenous leadership to assist residents in attaining self sufficiency in "at risk" communities. The strategy is to continue the attack on crime through intensive enforcement resulting in arrests and convictions in federal and state courts and the seizure of contraband and assets of drug traffickers, drug dealers, career criminals and violent crime offenders active in the selected communities. Specific attention will also be placed on truancy reduction. Enforcement will be reduced to a maintenance level over time while residents and leaders are empowered to sustain the reduced crime level, recovery and growth of the community. This will be accomplished through leadership skill development for adult and youth members, the creation or enhancement of community-based coalitions, employment preparation, job placement, grantsmanship training, and youth tutoring and mentoring. Due to the time parameters established (February 1, 2002 through January 31, 2003) for use of said grant funds, it is necessary to adopt this Ordinance as an Emergency Ordinance, so the grant may be utilized to its fullest potential.
