2 20-0782 Subject: Violence Prevention Services Spending Plan
From: Department OF Violence Prevention
Recommendation: Adopt A Resolution Approving The City's (1) Violence Prevention Program Strategies And (2) Funding Priorities For Programs Funded By The 2014 Oakland Public Safety And Services Violence Prevention Act (Safety And Services Act) For July 2021 Through The End Of The Safety And Services Act Funding Period (December 2024) as 1) presented by staff at the Life Enrichment Committee of December 8, 2020; or 2) as presented by staff and directing the City Administrator to return to Council within 60 days with any proposed revisions to the spending plan; or 3) Direct the City Administration to continue with existing spending plan for either six (6) or nine (9) months and direct the City Administrator to return to Council by June 30 with an amended spending plan for consideration
As a volunteer with the East Bay Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America group, I strongly support the City Council extending the existing spending plan for an additional 9 months to sustain community organizations currently doing violence prevention work in Oakland. This will allow them to continue their work, as well as allow them to collaborate with partners to make the most effective use of available funds. Thanks for listening!✌️
