CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 9/2/2014 SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY: Robert Handy, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 2014-63 authorizing the execution of an agreement with the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) for a Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) Grant in the amount of$435,226; and, authorize appropriation and expenditure of funds Statement of Issue: On June 18, 2014, the Police Department received notice from the California.Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) that the City of Huntington Beach was tentatively awarded a new one-year traffic safety grant. The Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grant #PT1543 provides funding in the amount of $435,226. These funds are intended to reimburse our costs associated with Sobriety/Drivers License checkpoints, one full time DUI officer, and multi-faceted traffic enforcement details. These events are designed to reduce traffic collisions, injuries, and fatalities through enforcement, education, and media attention. Financial Impact: This one-year reimbursable grant is funded by the California Office of Traffic Safety. The amount of $435,226 is to be utilized between October 1, 2014, and September 30, 2015. The appropriation request is fully offset by the estimated revenues. Recommended Action: A) Adopt Resolution No. 2014-63, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Authorizing the Chief of Police to Accept Grant Funds From the State of California Office of Traffic Safety for Selective Traffic Enforcement Program" approving and accepting the OTS STEP Grant agreement#PT1543 between OTS and the City for $435,226; and, B) Authorize the Chief of Police to execute the grant agreement with OTS; and, C) Approve appropriations and estimated revenue in the amount of $435,226; and, D) Establish a separate business unit for this funding and authorize the Chief of Police to expend up to a total of$435,226 plus accrued interest on the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grant. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve and direct staff accordingly. Item 9. - 1 - �- Dept. ID PD-14-009 Page 2 of 2 Meeting Date: 9/2/2014 Analysis: The City of Huntington Beach has always been concerned with the safe and efficient movement of vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic on our highways, streets, and bike paths. The City of Huntington Beach is currently going through several development projects, some of which will add to both seasonal and yearlong traffic related issues. In 2013, the Huntington Beach Police Department arrested over 731 DUI drivers. This grant will allow us to use progressive and innovative enforcement techniques to increase our DUI enforcement efforts. In addition to the DUI enforcement, we will be working to improve how the City ranks in several traffic safety categories. The most recent OTS statistics indicate Huntington Beach is unfortunately ranked first out of 55 comparable cities for total fatal and injury collisions, alcohol involved collisions, and collisions involving bicyclist under 15 years old. Huntington Beach is also second in bicycle collisions and sixth in motorcycle collisions. We are seeking to use the proposed funding to increase traffic enforcement actions and work to identify behaviors that contribute to the root causes of collisions. Further, we would like to provide additional methods of education to residents and inform them that careless and negligent behaviors will result in drastic consequences. to themselves, their passengers, or other affected citizens in and around our roadways. These enforcement and educational efforts are proposed to reduce the above incidents and lower the City's ranking among comparable cities. This particular grant will reimburse the City of Huntington Beach for expenditures associated with Sobriety/Drivers License Checkpoints, one full time DUI officer, and a variety of traffic related details. OTS will administer and handle the grant funds for the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program. Environmental Status: N/A Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance and maintain public safety Attachment(s): 1.

PROBLEM STATEMENT Huntington Beach is a unique city given its population(avg. residential 191,000), continued growth, ocean frontage, large entertainment district, traffic volume, and visitors (Est. 16 million beach visitors annually). We have annual public events which draw tens of thousands of people to a confined area. These include the HB Marathon, AVP Volleyball competition, Paintball, 4t' of July parade, US Open of Surfing, weekly Main Street Fair, two day Jazz festival, car shows, and many more. People travel from all over Southern California to attend these events. That means there is a significant increase in traffic volume on our streets and highways. This in turn results in congested roadways,minimal parking, and emotional drivers. Many of these events serve alcohol or are in close proximity to our downtown entertainment district where there is an oversaturation of ABC controlled establishments. Over the past several years,the Huntington Beach Police Department has experienced a decrease in DUI arrests. This is due in part to the significant grant resources OTS has given us over the last decade. We have made alcohol enforcement a priority and redirected assets to address the high volume of alcohol related incidents. By reevaluating entertainment permits and business licenses, involving vice and ABC investigators, analyzing citizen complaints, and having a crime analyst map problem locations, we have been able to identify trends and be proactive with problematic businesses. Historical data for the last three months indicates about 45% of DUI suspects reside outside the city of Huntington Beach. While alcohol is always an ongoing challenge, our current issues are addressing the fact we are ranked#1 out of 55 comparable cities for total fatal and injury collisions, alcohol involved collisions, and collisions involving bicyclist under 15 years old. HB is also second in bicycle collisions and sixth in motorcycle collisions. These 2011 OTS Rankings indicate a greater problem with motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists who frequent our roadways. We are seeking to better identify the behaviors and decision'making that leads to these high collision rates for the listed categories. We are seeking to use a bulk of the proposed funding to increase traffic enforcement action, survey the violators (standardized questions to be used by grant funded overtime officers), and identify behaviors that contribute to the final collision producing PCF. Further, we would like to provide additional methods of education to residents and inform them that careless and negligent behaviors will result in drastic consequences to themselves, their passengers, or other affected citizens in and around our roadways. For 2013,pedestrian and motorcycle fatalities made up 62% of our fatal collisions. 23% of the total fatalities were caused by drivers making a right of way violation. Our hypothesis is that a motorist' mentality and decision making is what leads to most collisions. Simply issuing citations for these violations doesn't address the problem. It may deter that particular driver temporarily but doesn't aid others from doing it. If passing motorists see a person get cited, they will never know what the violation was for and will continue their flawed decision making. If we can identify the key mentality and address the error through education, enforcement, and engineering, we can further reduce the continuing behavior. We are proposing officers working overtime under this grant,to ask a few questions of the violators to help us identify specific behaviors or patterns. The,valuable data from this brief survey will be consolidated and addressed. Through print media,public service announcements, and social media, we can help sway the public to have safer mindset. The impact would be to address the grants goals and OTS-38b(Rev. 5/14) GRANTS MADE EASY-STEP SCHEDULE A GRANT DESCRIPTION GRANT No. PT1543 PAGE 2 objectives and reduce the number of collisions, as well as the number of injuries and fatalities from the collisions.

Certifications and Assurances (Rev.2014) ATTACHMENT #3 � GRANTS MADE EASY-STEP SCHEDULE A GRANT DESCRIPTION GRANT No. PT1543 PAGE 1 1. PROBLEM STATEMENT Huntington Beach is a unique city given its population(avg. residential 191,000), continued growth, ocean frontage, large entertainment district,traffic volume, and visitors (Est. 16 million beach visitors annually). We have annual public events which draw tens of thousands of people to a confined area These include the HB Marathon,AVP Volleyball competition, Paintball, 4t' of July parade, US Open of Surfing, weekly Main Street Fair,two day Jazz festival, car shows, and many more. People travel from all over Southern California to attend these events. That means there is a significant increase in traffic volume on our streets and highways. This in turn results in congested roadways, minimal parking, and emotional drivers. Many of these events serve alcohol or are in close proximity to our downtown entertainment district where there is an oversaturation of ABC controlled establishments. Over the past several years, the Huntington Beach Police Department has experienced a decrease in DUI arrests. This is due in part to the significant grant resources OTS has given us over the last decade. We have made alcohol enforcement a priority and redirected assets to address the high volume of alcohol related incidents. .By reevaluating entertainment permits and business licenses, involving vice and ABC investigators, analyzing citizen complaints, and having a crime analyst map problem locations, we have been able to identify trends and be proactive with problematic businesses. Historical data for the last three months indicates about 45% of DUI suspects reside outside the city of Huntington Beach. While alcohol is always an ongoing challenge, our current issues are addressing the fact we are ranked 41 out of 55 comparable cities for total fatal and injury collisions, alcohol involved collisions, and collisions involving bicyclist under 15 years old. BB is also second in bicycle collisions and sixth in motorcycle collisions. These 2011 OTS Rankings indicate a greater problem with motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists who frequent our roadways. We are seeking to better identify the behaviors and decision'making that leads to these high collision rates for the listed categories. We are seeking to use a bulk of the proposed funding to increase traffic enforcement action, survey the violators (standardized questions to be used by grant funded overtime officers), and identify behaviors that contribute to the final collision producing PCF. Further, we would like to provide additional methods of education to residents and inform them that careless and negligent behaviors will result in drastic consequences to themselves, their passengers, or other affected citizens in and around our roadways. For 2013,pedestrian and motorcycle fatalities made up 62% of our fatal collisions. 23% of the total fatalities were caused by drivers making a right of way violation. Our hypothesis is that a motorist' mentality and decision making is what leads to most collisions. Simply issuing citations for these violations doesn't address the problem. It may deter that particular driver temporarily but doesn't aid others from doing it. If passing motorists see a person get cited, they will never know what the violation was for and will continue their flawed decision making. If we can identify the key mentality and address the error through education, enforcement, and engineering, we can further reduce the continuing behavior. We are.proposing officers working overtime under this grant,to ask a few questions of the violators to help us identify specific behaviors or patterns. The valuable data from this brief survey will be consolidated and addressed. Through print media,public service announcements, and social media, we can help sway the public to have safer mindset. The impact would be to address the grants goals and OTS-38b (Rev. 5/14) GRANTS MADE,EASY-STEP SCHEDULE A GRAINT DESCRIPTION GRA-.','T No. PT1.543 PAGF�2 objectives and reduce the number of collisions, as well as the number of illiuries and fatalities from the collisions.
