April 16, 2020 <br />Kittitas County Board of County Commissioners <br />205 W 5th Ave Suite #108 <br />Ellensburg, WA 98926 <br />Re: Letter of Support to Amend Grant <br />Dear Members of the BOCC, <br />It has come to our attention, that the tenns of the Grant awarded to the Prosecutor's Office were <br />too specific to have the intended effect. It was always the intent of the Prosecutor's Office to <br />obtain the necessary funds to establish a Child Forensic Interview Room with a corresponding <br />Family Waiting Area, and Observation Area. The Law & Justice Council understands and <br />supports the need for such spaces and awarded a Grant to accommodate the request. <br />The terms of the Grant provided an award of $4,697.00 for " Necessary furniture as listed in <br />application". Unfortunately, the specific items listed in the application are no longer available at <br />the price originally quoted. The Prosecutor's Office is not seeking additional funding or to <br />change the focus of the award. The Prosecutor's Office is simply asking to amend the language <br />contained in the Grant to be less restrictive so the desired and approved purchases can be made. <br />The goal and the monetary amounts remain the same. <br />On behalf of the Law & Justice Council we request the BOCC approve the attached amendment <br />and sign the corresponding resolution, also attached. <br />Thank you, <br />County Law & Justice Council <br />
