Sacto 9-1-1: Sacramento PD helps two school districts land security grant:
"The Sacramento Police Department wrote a successful grant application that will bring more than $460,000 for security improvements in the Sacramento City Unified and Robla school districts.
The $463,699 grant required a law enforcement agency to apply although the funds are being used for the purchase of cameras, lighting and door hardware at eight schools in the districts, a police spokesman said.
The grant is provided through the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, according to a Police Department news release.
'We are in tough economic times and are grateful that we have received several grants to help make our schools and community safer,' Police Chief Rick Braziel said."
