Congratulations! Through a competitive process, the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) has tentatively
approved your funding request for the proposal titled "Click It or Ticket Mini -Grant Program" in the
amount of $24,530.00. The approval is for the conducting of seat belt enforcement operations in
Santa Clarita in the period, October 1, 2009 to September 8, 2010.
The University of California Berkeley, Traffic Safety Center (TSC) who is administering the mini -grant
funds for OTS, will e-mail a mini -grant contract to the contact listed on the application. Please have
the Authorizing Official and any additional individuals authorized to sign claims return a signed
contract to TSC no later than September 15, 2009. It is our goal to have all new grants start no later
than October 1, 2009. The TSC will issue you a copy of the signed mini -grant contract.
Pre -operational training sessions will be conducted throughout the state in early November to review
the contract provisions and answer- any -questions.- If you must get approval from a City Council or the
Board of Supervisors, you should begin that process now. Do ,not incur costs prior to the receipt of
your copy of the signed grant from TSC. For your reference, the Catalogue of Federal Domestic
Assistance (CFDA) number is 20.600.
