r <br /> 1i <br /> February 24, 1992 <br /> Mr. David M. Childs <br /> St. Anthony City Manager <br /> 3301 Silver Lake Road <br /> Minneapolis, MIFF 55418 <br /> Dear Mr. Childs: <br /> On January 29, 1982 the Hennepin County Criminal Justice Coordinating <br /> Council unanimousiy oted-,ion disband) '.-Ve-.are advis hg you of-this deci- <br /> sion pursuant to the Council's Bylaws which require that all participating <br /> units of government be notified of such action. We also wish to advise <br /> you that the dissolution of this organization becomes.effective 60 days <br /> following the date of the Council's action. <br /> As you know, the Council was cooperatively organized in 1972 by Hennepin <br /> County, the City of Minneapolis and the suburban units of government <br /> within the County.' As originally conceived, the Council was responsible <br /> LW for managing the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration grant-in-aid <br /> program. In this capacity, the Council and its staff were responsible for <br /> preparing annual plans, providing technical assistance, conducting research <br /> agencies, all in the pursuit of improving the justice system in our County <br /> through innovative programming. To this end the Council assisted in the <br /> development of over 350 grant projects which represented $21.6.million in <br /> funding assistance for law enforcement, corrections, public defense, prose= <br /> cution, adjudication and a wide range of juvenile justice and delinquency <br /> prevention activities. <br /> Following the discontinuation of the LEAA Program, the Coordinating Council <br /> began a review of its charter and prospects for future activities. It deter- <br /> mined that its primary function had been to represent the interests of its <br /> ® member units of government in the grant-in-aid program and concluded that <br /> there was no ongoing need for maintaining the organization as a standing <br /> advisory group. The Council, therefore, decided to. disband and directed that <br /> we advise Council members of this action. <br /> On behalf of the Coord'Inating Council we wish to extend our appreciation for <br /> your support during th , past ten years. Your participation has made possible <br /> the Council's successfW contribution to many justice system improvements in <br /> ® Hennepin County- <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Ct eb <br /> l L .
