Title
A RESOLUTION CONCERNING LOCAL IMPACT GRANT FUNDS MULTIYEAR PLAN for the purpose of approving the County’s Local Impact Grant Funds Multiyear Plan.
Background
This Resolution is for the purpose of approving the County’s Local Impact Grant Funds Multiyear Plan (the “Plan).

Section 9-1A-31 of the State Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland provides that prior to any expenditure of local impact grants funds provided under Section 9-1A-27 of the State Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland (allocation of video lottery proceeds), a county or municipality shall develop, in consultation with the local development council, a multiyear plan for the expenditure of the local impact grant funds for services and improvements consistent with Section 9-1A-31(b) of the State Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland.

The Plan forecasts the use of net video lottery terminal proceeds from Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2017 - FY 2020. In FY 2017, the Plan allots $4,502,100 of funding for various purposes, including: capital projects for the Prince George’s County Board of Education ($2,251,000); additional police officers ($787,900); additional fire fighters ($562,800); Workforce Development and Training ($337,700); the County’s Youth Employment Program ($337,700); and grants to community organizations ($225,000). The FY 2017 portion of the Plan has been included in the FY 2017 Approved Budget.
