Establish a separate business unit for this funding, and 4. Appropriate $391,824, plus any accrued interest to be expended on patrol related equipment. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the grant and reject the grant funding from the County of Orange and direct staff accordingly. 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 2007-2008. This funding is provided by October of each year. This is year twelve (12) 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 this grant is to fund front line patrol equipment as follows: New safety equipment for officers, which include duty weapons, traffic vests, and body armors. $ 46,824 New radar trailers $ 20,000 New patrol radios, MDT, chargers, batteries etc. $ 82,000 New ACOG sighting system for patrol rifle $ 21,000 New computers and its accessories for officers to book prisoners $ 20,000 -2- 8/17/2007 8:22 AM REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 9/4/2007 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PD-07-007 For helicopter program to enhance safety and efficiency: New Moving Map Systems $ 25,000 3 Diamond J TOT Gauges $ 6,000 3 Diamond J Torque Gauges $ 16,000 Uniform patrol and traffic for more efficient and timely enforcement: 2 Portable light towers for major crime scene investigation $ 20,000 Web Based On Line Crime and Incident Reporting $ 35,000 3 Solar powered permanent radar/speed limit signs $ 33,000 Pistol Mounted Flash Lights and Holsters for Uniform Officers $ 67,000 Total $ 391,824 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. Strategic Plan Goal: This grant supports the City Services Strategic Plan Goal. That is to provide public services with the highest professional standards to meet community expectations and needs, assuring that the city is sufficiently staffed and equipped overall. -3- 8/17/2007 8:25 AM REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 9/4/2007 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PD-07-007 Environmental Status: Attachment(s): NumberCity Clerk's Page .

O. Box 70 Huntington Beach, CA 92648 RMCHIEF'870139:12 RE: Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund(SLESF) The Citizens Option for Public Safety (COPS) - Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Funds (SLESF) are funds subject to legislative appropriations and adoption of the state budget in any given year. These funds are allocated to local law enforcement agencies for front line law enforcement services and must be used to supplement existing funding. Cities and Counties are required to create a separate SLESF account in order to keep these funds separate from other monies. The Orange County Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight Committee (SLEOC)is responsible for meeting annually to review and approve actual and proposed future SLESF expenditures by all Orange County recipients and to facilitate required state reports regarding all expended funds. The Orange County SLEOC includes Sheriff Michael Carona (Chair), County Executive Officer Thomas Mauk, District Attorney Tony Rackauckas, Laguna Beach Police Chief Michael Sellers, and Aliso Viejo City Manager, Mark Pulone. The SLEOC will convene in early October, 2007 to approve the SLESF expenditures for FY06/07, complete and submit the standardized reporting form to the State Controller's Office, and approve the proposed SLESF expenditures for FY07/08 to authorize the release of funds by the county Auditor-Controller to each city agency. To satisfy the SLESF reporting requirements, your city will need to complete the attached forms and submit them to the county SLEOC. Please read the attached letter from the State Controller's Office and Government Code Section 30061-30065, addressing SLESF requirements. In my assigned task of compiling these reports for the SLEOC, the Necessary Action Items detailed below must be received by the dates listed.
