plus any accrued interest on technology associated with patrol related equipment as

Analysis:
In 1996, State Assembly Bill AB 3229 was signed into law. This bill created the Citizens
Option for Public Safety Program (COPS), which provided $100 million statewide to be used
exclusively for front line law enforcement services'. This program has been ongoing, but
required a budget appropriation each fiscal year for continued funding. Each law
enforcement agency is guaranteed $100,000 minimum. The total allocation to an agency is
determined by a formula derived from the base amount and population figures provided by
the ,Department of Finance. Based on our population, we received an award of $391,824 for
fiscal year 2006-2007.
This is the eleventh year of funding for this grant. The grant requires that the funds be spent
on front-line police service. The SLESF Oversight Committee, which is comprised of
members of Orange County Sheriff's Department and involved citizens throughout Orange
County, has requested that we define the intended use for the funds before acceptance of
this grant. At this time, the intended project for the additional funding of $91,824 is to fund
front line patrol equipment as follows:
New Taser 40MM Single Shot Rifled Barrel Launcher and its related equipment
COUNCIL POLICY REGARDING REQUESTS FOR AN APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS:
As adopted by the City Council in March 1998, all requests for appropriation of funds must
meet one of the following criteria; 1) The request is for an unanticipated emergency, 2) The
request is required to implement labor negotiations, or 3) The request will be offset by related
new revenues.
This request meets criteria #3 and will be fully offset by grant funds.
