Fed Grant to Deal with Illegal Criminal Aliens

To be considered at the McHenry County Finance and Audit Committee meeting on Thursday, November 10th.

Acceptance of the 2016 State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) award and an adjustment to the Sheriff’s fiscal year 2017 budget to allow for the proper recording of the revenue and expenditure as allowed by the grant.

Background and Discussion:  The Sheriff has been notified by the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance, of a SCAAP award in the amount of $88,798. SCAAP provides federal payments to states and localities for incarcerating undocumented criminal aliens who have at least one felony or two misdemeanor convictions for violations of state or local law, and who are incarcerated for at least 4 consecutive days during the reporting period.

Maybe the newly-elected County Board Chairman will attend to propose how next year’s tax levy should be changed.

Fed Grant to Deal with Illegal Criminal Aliens — 7 Comments

  1. Cal:

    Ask the Mayors and Village Board Presidents who has delivered from Springfield funds and grants in the last 20 years.

    Jack Franks has brought more back from Springfield for our communities than Schaeffer, Klemm, Hughes, and Brown combined.

    You are forgiven because you ran on a platform that minimized government action.

  2. Not near enough to compensate for ALL the diversion of McHenry County tax dollars to Chicago!!

    Diversions approved by the little liar!!

    Where did all those dollars for “funds and grants” come from?

    Is there a ‘money’ tree in Springfield?

    Yes, there is, it is the McHenry County tax payers!!

    It did not matter who was the elected Rep. from this area, that money would have come to McHenry County regardless.

    The little liar is a great politician but he does not represent US!!

  3. Questioning:

    Thank you for confirming my statement.

    May we assume that your position is that one State Representative can singlehandedly reverse three generations of corruption?

  4. If sanctuary cities were not FORCED upon us by the Left
    and the borders and immigration were controlled as they
    lawfully should be, then we would not have this problem.
    .
    Make America Great Again, vote Trump.

  5. Take NOTHING from the feral government – and owe them even less.

  6. So this is a different program than the Federal Government paying McHenry County to house Federal inmates?

    McHenry County jail does not house inmates for other counties or the state, does it?

  7. Actually McHenry County did house Richard M Daley’s nephew Richard J Vanecko (RJ) convicted in Cook County Court.

    He punched David Koschman who later died.

    So apparently McHenry County does sometimes house inmates from other counties.

    On March 17, 2014, McHenry County was reported to be attempting to renegotiate the $16 a day rate for housing the Cook County inmate due to a 1997 administrative order from Lake / McHenry Raymond McCoski.

    McHenry County was receiving $85 dollar a day (which was to expire in 2015) to house Federal inmates, which they were also attempting to renegotiate at the time.

    Wonder if either has subsequently been adjusted.
