ICAC Grant Funds Request
Thanks for submitting your request. We apologize for the rush; however, due to circumstances beyond our
control, we were left with a very short time frame for awarding (and spending) the funds this grant cycle. There
were many great requests, and we appreciate that you are trying to provide the best investigative resources to
protect the children in our communities. The total funds requested by affiliates this cycle exceeded our
available dollars by more than $120,000, so we are unable to approve the total amount requested by each
agency. There were several criteria used to assist in the decision making process, including how much funding
was awarded to each agency last grant cycle, as well as each agency's reported statistics.
For those requesting upgrades for Cellebrite, we received numerous requests to upgrade Cellebrite units,
A totaling over $60,000. Our Computer Forensics Detectives researched the Cellebrite situation and determined
W that current units should function through October 2014, when updates will cease. The units will still function;
they just won't keep up with features on the newer devices. Support for the current Cellebrite units will be
available through June 2015. Our plan is to budget more dollars to meet these (and other anticipated Cellebrite)
requests in the next funding cycle, which we've been told should occur this fall.
After careful deliberation, we have earmarked $6,200 for the Englewood Police Department. If you did not
submit your original request to us on the ICAC GRANT EXPENDITURE REQUEST form, please do so at
this time. If you did use the form and your request has not changed, please just respond to this email,
indicating there are no changes.
Below is a listing of the approved items. Ifwe disapproved an item that you want to prioritize, you may
resubmit the form, substituting the prioritized item instead of an approved item(s}, as long as your total funding
request remains at or below $6,200 and the prioritized item falls within the scope of the grant. If you have
questions, contact Janet Van Kampen at vankamja@ci.colospgs.us or 719-444-7560.
THE FOLLOWING ITEMS HA VE BEEN APPROVED:
Equipment Software/ Total Award
License/
Supply
$700 $5,500 $6,200
Cellebrite PC Logical Software
($4,500)
Laptop w/Windows 7
1 yr SMS license ($1,000)
Remember, the sooner you get the form back to us, the sooner we can release funding to you. Please
remember the funds must be spent by May 16, 2014.
Thank you!
