41 <br /> Orange County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council Meeting <br /> Monday, May 8,2023 (11:OOam— 11:30am) <br /> Virtual Zoom Meeting <br /> Proposed Minutes <br /> Attendees: Phyllis Portie-Ascott, Sharron Hinton, Carol McClelland,Dana Crews, Laurie <br /> Williamson,Jon Berkeley,Lateef Mitchell,Paul Bell, Terence Johnson, David Carter, Rebekah Rapoza <br /> (*Members in bold) <br /> Welcome <br /> The meeting opened with a welcome from Chair, Sharron Hinton, and introductions. <br /> JCPC Business <br /> This special meeting was called at the request of the JCPC Chair to discuss and vote on accepting the <br /> discretionary funds that were awarded to Reintegration Support Network by the Department. In order for <br /> them to receive those dollars the JCPC must vote to approve acceptance. <br /> Last month, the Department put out a notice to all currently funded JCPC programs letting them know <br /> that discretionary monies were available. RSN requested $7,400 in discretionary funds from the <br /> Department to support the purchase of four new laptops for staff. Staff have been working on personal <br /> computers, many of which are also outdated, which poses a possible IT risk. The type of request <br /> submitted by RSN is typical, especially if it's for equipment that is crucial for their operation. <br /> RSN's request was approved by the Department and they were awarded the full $7,400. Policy/procedure <br /> dictates that the request must also go before the JCPC for approval before the funds can be disbursed. <br /> Carol McClelland made a motion to accept the discretionary funds awarded to Reintegration Support <br /> Network in the amount of$7,400 and was seconded by Laurie Williamson. Motion passed unanimously. <br />
