to distribute County Grant Funds. These funds are
made available to eligible County Governments to

Counties are credited with an annual allocation that
remains theirs and must be claimed by applying to
H.R.S. , which is responsible for distributing these
funds annually.
FUNDING: County Grant Funds are derived from surcharges on
various traffic violations.
ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION:
