Form RA 9 <br />LEVEL OF SERVICE CERTIFICATION <br />POLICY <br />The following funds are based on a decreasing funding ratio over five years: <br />State Criminal Justice Planning (421) Fund <br />Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Fund <br />Safe and Drug -Free Schools and Communities Act Fund <br />Under this policy, the grantee is responsible for continuing a level of service that is, at a minimum, <br />what it provides in the first year of funding. This is not a cash match requirement, however, and the <br />grantee is not responsible for accounting for any funds other than those directly granted by CJD or <br />earned as program income. In determining the level of service, CJD will consider both the quantity <br />and quality of services provided. <br />The decreasing funding ratio provides for CJD funding 100% of costs in the first year. The first -year <br />grant award, regardless of funding source, sets a benchmark for all other funding decisions. <br />• In the second year, the grantee is eligible for 80% of the benchmark amount; <br />m In the third year, the grantee is eligible for 60% of the benchmark amount; <br />• In the fourth year, the grantee is eligible for 40% of the benchmark amount; <br />e In the fifth year, the grantee is eligible for 20% of the benchmark amount; <br />No project under this policy will be considered for sixth- or subsequent -year funding. <br />CERTIFICATION <br />I certify that, if funded, the grant project will maintain a level of service that is, at a minimum, what was <br />provided in the first year of funding. <br />Signature of authorized official <br />January 30, 1998 <br />Date <br />20 <br />CJD Forms Packet <br />Revised: September, 1997 <br />
