Call to Order Mayor Lester M. Miller 2. Public Comments on FY2027 Budget a. Citizens who wish to make oral comments: • Please sign up to speak (Sponsored by: Lester M. Miller, Mayor) The following citizens spoke in favor of removing the Flock cameras from the FY27 Budget: • Angelia Hoomes • Rhiannon Wimer • Atlas August • Emma Darness • Julia Stuckey • Lee McCombs • Heidi Clinite • Leonardo Voiselle • Naiyla Ledbell June 2, 2026 Page 1 of 3 Page 4 of 247  • Tyler Collins • Aidan Leahy The following citizens spoke on: • Renoalda Scott - additional funds for Parks and Recreation • Benjamin Tiernan - additional funds for Parks and Recreation • Robert Daniels - Raise the cost of cremations • Cam Oetter - Pedestrian and cycling upgrades to Vineville Ave and Riverside Drive Sheriff David Davis spoke on Flock Cameras: In the past forty years, the Flock cameras have been the best new technology that has been introduced. The Flock cameras have been able to allow us to identify suspects along with bringing peace and comfort to victims. These cases have involved murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, assault and burglary and other violent offenses. We have recovered ten to twenty stolen vehicles each month. In each case, we have been able to give the victims peace of mind that the person who injured them has been brought to justice. There are certain things that law enforcement should do, and we do at Bibb County, to assure that there is not unfettered access to the Flock data. All of our users must link that search to an ongoing criminal investigation, and it is categorized and cataloged, and we follow those policies. It is never used to target any individual because of the fact that our cameras do not pick up on things that other cameras in other jurisdictions might. Our cameras are there looking for people who are maybe in stolen vehicles or people who may be wanted in investigations of criminal activities. I think that the Flock system coupled with other technology that we have are making our community safer. All the Flock camera does is take a picture of a license plate. It does not know where that car is going or where it has been. It only recognizes the license plate and if that car is stolen, we get an alert that the vehicle is involved in an ongoing criminal investigation. We do not have time, to spend our time surveying or watching law abiding citizens; we are too busy solving crimes and saving lives. Not to mention the cases where we have had elderly couples who have left to go to church or to the store and their families lose track of them and they are found in another state where they have just wandered up the highway. We have used Flock cameras in a couple of instances where we have reunited people with their families. Overall, from a public safety / crime fighting initiative or crime- fighting, crime-fighting standpoint, and a public safety and life saving instance, this is a public safety tool and a win-win for the community. The funds we are talking about are state funds that are budgeted through the Governor's Office specifically for Flock cameras. I ask you all to continue to support this initiative. I thank you for what you have done for law June 2, 2026 Page 2 of 3 Page 5 of 247  enforcement in our community. 3. Adjourn There being no further speakers, the meeting was adjourned.

(the “Host Committee”) I am pleased to extend my sincere congratulations to your organization for being selected as a subrecipient in support of security related activities associated with the FIFA World Cup 2026™. Your organization has been approved for funding as a subrecipient under the FWCGP. This award reflects our confidence in your ability to execute programs and initiatives to carry out the security activities and operational readiness efforts required to protect players, staff, attendees, venues, and critical infrastructure in our region related to this historic event. The funding will be contingent upon compliance with all applicable terms, reporting requirements, restrictions performance benchmarks, and grant-specific administrative pre-requisites as outlined in the notification of funding opportunity for the FWCGP. The funds are exclusively intended to support the implementation of the projects described in your proposal and set forth in a formal Subrecipient Agreement between your organization and the Host Committee. As a subrecipient, your organization will be required to: • Execute the formal Subrecipient Agreement. • Submit periodic financial and programmatic reports as requested by the Host Committee. • Submit reimbursement packages to the Host Committee for actual cost incurred (the grant will operate on a reimbursement basis). • Maintain compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. • Participate in coordination, planning, and oversight meetings and activities as requested by the Host Committee. Additional guidance regarding contract execution, disbursement schedules, reporting templates, and compliance standards will be provided during informational and training sessions over the next couple of weeks. Please note that the federal funding allocation for this grant was limited, and the total value of funding applications exceeded the final federal allocation. As a result, some of your requests may not have been funded or may have been only partially funded. In addition, if applicable to your specific application you should know that the purchase of vehicles and similar equipment is not allowable under FEMA preparedness grants. This restriction includes, but is not limited to, vehicles, bicycles, ATVs, UTVs, and weapons systems. However, the rental or lease of such assets is permitted when necessary to support FIFA World Cup 2026™ operations. Regardless of category of expenses, the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA retain final authority in determining final cost allowability. Prioritization of FWCGP resources was determined based on security and capacity needs identified through partner-initiated security planning efforts led by the Host Committee Chief Security Officer (HCCSO) and regional law enforcement partners. Funding is primarily intended to support overtime personnel expenses, along with limited equipment costs deemed essential to support those assignments. Requests that were not funded, or were only partially funded, may have been determined to be ineligible or outside the scope of the program for one or more of the following reasons: • The request pertained to the Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) Grant Program. 1 Page 205 of 247  • The request included unallowable fringe benefits. • The request involved personnel not accounted for in the planning process. • The request was for items unrelated to FIFA World Cup activities. • The request included equipment deemed outside of the purview of the grant or not essential to support event-related overtime personnel. • The request duplicated previously submitted or funded item. • The request included administrative or indirect cost that curtailed the ability to deliver operational needs. We appreciate the time and effort invested in your application and recognize the critical role you and all partners play in ensuring a safe and successful event. In the attached pages you will see the total award dollar amount and respective approved projects for your organization. The performance period of the grant is July 4, 2025, to August 31, 2026. Please note that until formal execution of the Subrecipient Agreement with the Host Committee, any expense for approved activities incurred by your organization will be your organization’s sole responsibility. Once again, congratulations and thank you for your commitment to our region and the FIFA World Cup 2026™. Sincerely, Dan Corso Chief Executive Officer Atlanta World Cup Host Committee, Inc. 2 Page 206 of 247  Macon-Bibb County Updated Award - Notification 2026 FWCGP Agency or Jurisdiction Project Master POETE Project Name Project Description Expense Category Original Award Macon-Bibb County Project 3 Organization Mutual Aid Security Provide three Certified Bomb Technicians to Personnel (salaries and overtime)$ - Only 39,910 Assistance coordinate enhanced security coverage with Fringe Benefits$ - Only - Atlanta Police Department and ATF during Travel $ - Only 19,410 FIFA events June 10th through July 18th.
