According to a press release from Gov. Kemp's office on June 8, 2023, the Governor's office awarded more than $83.5 million in grants for 118 qualified projects as part of the Community Public Safety Grant program. This included a grant of $1,549,248.80 to the Seminole County Sheriff's Office described in additional documents provided by the Governor: https://gov.georgia.gov/sites/gov.georgia.gov/files/2023-06/Grantee%20List%20for%20Public%20Safety%20Release1024_9_0.jpg

I'm sorry -- I had forwarded this to my Chief Deputy.
At this time, Seminole County has not spent any money from this grant.
We are still in the planning stage getting bids for the different projects.
For additional information, you will need to contact the county manager's office.

Thank you.
I am not seeking the contracts or bids. I am seeking the documents for the grant application that was submitted to Gov. Kemp's office.
Since Gov. Kemp's office announced that you received a grant, I assume that you have a copy of the application for that grant.
From: Seminole County Sheriff's Office
Good afternoon
I was told that all documents for this grant was submitted through the Seminole County Board of Commissioners Office.
Everything is on file in that office. The Sheriff's Office has not maintained any copies of what was submitted for this Grant.
For additional information, you will need to contact the county manager's office.
