The Police Department supports those groups involved in offering
alternatives to substance abuse and crime to the youth of our
community. The Liberty City Optimist Club has designed such a
program, promoting sports and academic achievement as essential
ingredients to the growth and development of inner city children.
The components to be funded consist of sports -related activities,
Football/Cheerleading and Tennis --activities which foster "healthy
competition" among our inner city youth. Necessary equipment,
supplies, uniforms and transportation will be funded through this
program.
It is, therefore, recommended that a Resolution allocating $58,000
for the funding of the Liberty City Optimist Club, funding to be
provided from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project No. 690001,
Index Code 029002-247 be accepted.
