The FY24 Arizona Automobile Theft Authority (AATA) Grant programs offer funding specifically targeting projects in Law Enforcement, Training, and Theft Prevention. These grants are exclusively available to Arizona Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice agencies. The core objective of these programs is to reduce and combat automobile theft within the state of Arizona by supporting agencies on the front lines of prevention and enforcement efforts. The primary beneficiaries of this funding are Arizona Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice agencies, which utilize the grants to enhance their capacity in fighting auto theft. The focus is specifically on implementing projects that fall under the categories of law enforcement operations, specialized training for personnel, and initiatives aimed at preventing vehicle theft. The implicit impact goal is a measurable reduction in the incidence of automobile theft across the state, thereby improving public safety and minimizing financial losses associated with these crimes. Priorities for the funding include supporting projects that can be implemented effectively prior to the FY24 deadline of June 30, 2024. While the specific strategic priorities, theory of change, and detailed expected outcomes are not elaborated in this notice, the requirement that all grant applications necessitate approval from the AATA Board of Directors ensures alignment with the Authority's overall mission to combat automobile theft. Grant extensions beyond the June 30th deadline are permitted to accommodate necessary procurement and program implementation. Agencies receiving AATA grant funding are required to maintain accountability through mandatory reporting. This involves submitting monthly or quarterly financial and performance reports via the Ecivis Grant Management System. Furthermore, applicants must submit a detailed budget sheet as part of the application process. Once approved by the Board, funding is issued following the generation and signature of contracts between the AATA and an authorized representative of the grantee.
