Gwinnett commissioners recently approved a subgrant agreement with the Atlanta Regional Commission that will allow the county to accept $300,000 in grant funding to assist the Gwinnett County Police Department in the implementation of a Situational Awareness and Crime Response Center (SACRC). The grant does not require a county match.
The funds will assist in the purchase of technologies, software, cameras, hardware or professional services for project management, system assurance, and training.
Once fully implemented, the SACRC will serve as an information hub for the police department and enhance information sharing between public safety departments throughout the county, community improvement districts, metro Atlanta and state agencies.
