Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients of federal financial assistance to give assurances that
they will comply with those laws. Taken together, these civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal
financial assistance from DOJ from discriminating in services and employment because of race,
color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, and, for grants authorized under the Violence Against
Women Act, sexual orientation and gender identity. Recipients are also prohibited from
discriminating in services because of age. For a complete review of these civil rights laws and
nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalOverview/CiviIRightsRequirements. htm.
Under the delegation of authority, the OCR investigates allegations of discrimination against
recipients from individuals, entities, or groups. In addition, the OCR conducts limited compliance
reviews and audits based on regulatory criteria. These reviews and audits permit the OCR to
evaluate whether recipients of financial assistance from the Department are providing services in a
nondiscriminatory manner to their service population or have employment practices that meet equal -
opportunity standards.
If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act or the
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal justice
system, there are two additional obligations that may apply in connection with the awards: (1)
complying with the regulation relating to Equal Employment Opportunity Programs (EEOPs); and (2)
submitting findings of discrimination to OCR. For additional information regarding the EEOP
requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42, subpart E, and for additional information regarding requirements
when there is an adverse finding, see 28 C.F.R. §§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5).
The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that are
associated with DOJ grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in fulfilling your
organization's civil rights or nondiscrimination responsibilities as a recipient of federal financial
assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the OCR at askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.

The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY 2022
award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number (e.g., funds awarded
during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with respect to all funds under
that award number (regardless of the award date, and regardless of whether derived from the initial award
or a supplemental award) that are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP awards
and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at

pertinent records indicated at 2 C.F.R. 200.334.
In the event that an award -related question arises from documents or other materials prepared or distributed
by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way from, the provisions of the Part 200 Uniform
Requirements, the recipient is to contact OJP promptly for clarification.
'Q3
Requirement to report actual or imminent breach of personally identifiable information (PII)
The recipient (and any "subrecipient" at any tier) must have written procedures in place to respond in the
event of an actual or imminent "breach" (OMB M-17-12) if it (or a subrecipient) -- (1) creates, collects, uses,
processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of "Personally Identifiable Information
(PII)" (2 CFR 200.1) within the scope of an OJP grant -funded program or activity, or (2) uses or operates a
"Federal information system" (OMB Circular A-1 30). The recipient's breach procedures must include a
requirement to report actual or imminent breach of PH to an OJP Program Manager no later than 24 hours
after an occurrence of an actual breach, or the detection of an imminent breach.

In the event that either the Grant Award Administrator or a Financial Manager for this award changes during
the period of performance, the new Grant Award Administrator or Financial Manager must have successfully
completed an "OJP financial management and grant administration training" by 120 calendar days after the
date the Entity Administrator enters updated Grant Award Administrator or Financial Manager information in

to comply with this condition. The recipient's failure to comply also may lead OJP to impose additional
appropriate conditions on this award.
'Q6
Effect of failure to address audit issues
The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) may
withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as determined by the DOJ awarding

The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or
certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of
performance also is a material requirement of this award.
Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine
that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award.
Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made during the period of
performance, are (or will be during the period of performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs
("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions"
(ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-AwardRegts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official accepts all
material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the authorized
recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to
conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full below, a
condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the
award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award.
Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award.
DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award (or
concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18
U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties
and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-
3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms, that
provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by
law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be
deemed severable from this award.

Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S. Code were
editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled "Crime Control and Law
Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions pertinent to OJP awards
(that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42
of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has
been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision
as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award
conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and
references set out in other award requirements.

All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements
for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants
administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement
"contract").
The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards ("subgrants")
must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here.
Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award Management
(SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable requirements regarding
registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information in SAM.
The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first -tier
subrecipients (first -tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not acquire and
provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration.
The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted on the
OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for Award Management
(SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by reference here.

any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment,
repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C.
1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that
otherwise would be barred by law.)
Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or
any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a
Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of
a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions
such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this
law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.
Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient)
would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and
may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.
Specific post -award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that
would exceed $250,000
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements
to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that
would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently, $250,000). This condition applies to
agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a
procurement "contract" (and therefore does not consider a subaward).
The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement
contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at

Program Narrative
AGENCY: City of Tamarac
PROJECT NAME: Community Education and Proactive Crime Prevention Plan
PROJECT NARRATIVE:
The City of Tamarac is being allocated $15,001.00 from the Fiscal Year of the 2022 Edward Byrne
Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program. Broward County will be retaining 7.02% for
indirect costs associated with administering the grant, and $991.19 will be set aside for fringe
benefits. The remaining balance of $12,967.74 will be allocated within the City of Tamarac.
The City of Tamarac was incorporated in 1963 and has a growing population of more than 71,000
residents, based on the 2020 United States Census Bureau. The city encompasses approximately
twelve square miles and is located within the western section of Broward County, Florida. The
Broward Sheriff's Office entered into its first police service contract with the City of Tamarac in
1989. In October of 2020, the Broward Sheriff's Office and the City of Tamarac renegotiated a
five (5) year term extension for police services.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: (Description of the Issue)
Historically, the City of Tamarac experiences a higher volume of property crimes than any other
crime. In 2021, 382 larcenies, 255 vehicle burglaries, and 166 auto thefts were reported in the
city. A query of the Broward Sheriff Office summary of crimes in 2021 revealed a total of over
905 reported property crimes in the City of Tamarac.
The Broward Sheriff's Office Tamarac District has a Crime Suppression Team (CST), a Criminal
Investigations Unit (CI), a Motors Unit, a Crime Prevention Unit (CPU), and uniformed road patrol
deputies who all work as a team to reduce crime rates within the City of Tamarac.
Overall, the community safety aspect of this initiative will consist of deputies and detectives
proactively engaging the citizens of the community and building upon existing relationships to
increase alliances. This will assist and aid with maintaining the trust from the community,
resulting in resourceful and reliable intelligence for crimes occurring in the affected targeted
areas. The project will be managed by the District Executive Officer and the decision to use
personnel will be made in collaboration with the District Captain.
PROJECT DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION:
The goal of the operations revolving around this grant will be to reduce the overall crime rate in
the City of Tamarac and increase the safety of the citizens. These operations will be utilized to
reduce the occurrences of property crimes and strengthen the Broward Sheriff's Office's existing
relationship with the community.
The grant will be used to facilitate a two -pronged approach to reducing crime in the city. The first
prong will be an educational approach to strengthen the community's resistance to crime. The
second prong of this approach will involve proactively preventing criminals from committing
crimes and solving crimes that have already been committed. The district Crime Analyst will be
used to monitor crime trends and identify problem areas. If a trend is recognized, the two -prong
approach to reducing crime will be used. This precise targeting of an area affected by a crime
trend will increase the overall efficacy of the operation.
Education:
All the units of the district will be used for the educational component of the operation; however,
this prong leans heavily on the specialty of the Crime Prevention Unit. Education will include, but
not be limited to the below.
• Increase community awareness of crime trends though the use of social media
• Participate in the Welcome Home Initiative for residents. Deputies working this
initiative provides resources to residents as they return home.
• Utilize Park -Walk -And -Talks to develop relationships in both residential and
commercial areas
• Participation in Community Events
Proactive Prevention:
All the units of the district will be used for the proactive prevention component of the operation;
however, this prong leans heavily on the specialty of the Crime Suppression Team and the
Criminal Investigations Unit. Proactive Prevention will include, but not be limited to the below.
• High Visibilty Patrols (Lights and sirens)
• Undercover Operations
• Decoy Operations
• Intelligence gathering through open source media/social media
CAPABILITIES and COMPETENCIES:
The Broward Sheriff's Office is capable of combatting crimes in many ways. Each of the five (5)
separate sections (Criminal Investigations, Crime Prevention Unit, Motors Unit, Crime
Suppression Team & Patrol Services) of the Tamarac District will use their various skill sets to
achieve the goals set forth in this application.
PLAN FOR COLLECTING THE DATA:
Each operation will be monitored by the Crime Suppression Team (CST) and/or Criminal
Investigations (CI) Sergeants. An analysis of crime trends will be conducted following each
operation to establish the efficacy of the operation. Operations will be adjusted according
to this analysis.
Additionally, at the end of every daily operation, each detective/deputy that worked the
operation will render a Daily Activity Log which documents their activity in the following,
but not limited areas, such as Arrests, Citizen Contacts, Citations Issued, Area Checks, etc.
At the conclusion of the operational period, a Crime Analyst will total the Daily Activity Logs
and complete an after -action report, outlining the results (i.e. decreases in crime) of the
operation.
