Budget panel approves sheriff's request to seek $10,000 Metro training grant as subrecipient
Summary
The Sumner County budget committee voted to allow the sheriff's office to apply as a subrecipient on a Metro Nashville grant worth up to $10,000 for detective training on child exploitation investigations; members said the grant requires no county match and runs three years.
The Sumner County Budget Committee voted to let the sheriff's office apply as a subrecipient on a Metro Nashville grant that would provide up to $10,000 over three years for specialized detective training on child exploitation cases.
Chair moved the request after noting Sheriff Craddock had emailed Commissioner Shoaf asking the county to serve as a subrecipient. "It's up to $10,000," the Chair said when describing the award, and committee members confirmed the county would not be required to provide a local match. A voice vote carried the motion.
Committee members asked procedural questions before the vote, including the grant term (reported as three years) and whether a county match was required; the Chair and Mister Klein said there was none. Finance director Beth confirmed packet materials were available for members who wanted more detail. The committee did not attach additional conditions to the approval.
The action directs staff to proceed with the application paperwork; the committee did not record a roll-call tally, conducting the decision by voice vote.
