Parra, Interim City Manager VIA: Eric Parra, Chief of Police PREPARED BY: Lt. Thoby Archer and Exec. Asst. Ingrid Ono Subject: Approve and authorize execution of agreement with the City of Costa Mesa for Public Safety Helicopter Services Statement of Issue: Approval of a three-year contract agreement with City of Costa Mesa for Public Safety Helicopter Services. Financial Impact: The proposed contract generates up to $300,000 per year in General Fund revenue for the City of Huntington Beach in exchange for Public Safety Helicopter Services for the City of Costa Mesa. Costa Mesa is requesting the contract be modified from calls for service and proactive patrol, to calls 'for service only. This would mean our helicopter would only respond for calls for service when requested by Costa Mesa, potentially resulting in less income than previous years. The rate was increased from $800 an hour to $840 an hour last year, as allowed by the contract. This year the contract will bill at $850 an hour. Recommended Action: Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the "Services Agreement for Public Safety Helicopter Support Between the City of Huntington Beach and the City of Costa Mesa." Alternative Action(s): Do not approve and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: On June 30, 2011, the Airborne Law Enforcement Services (ABLE), a Joint Powers Authority, was dissolved and the City of Costa Mesa was left without public safety helicopter support services.

When a police helicopter is used during a vehicle or foot pursuit, public safety is greatly enhanced. The ability to observe and report on uninvolved vehicle/pedestrian traffic, road conditions, and suspect actions brings a greater degree of safety to the event. The capabilities of the police helicopter make it an invaluable tool during major emergencies and natural disasters. ,:,� 40/ ., A study conducted for the Los Angeles Police Department by JPL (Jet Propul- sion Laboratory) determined the following: One police helicopter provides a level of service equivalent to eight (8) 2- officer patrol cars. The presence of the police helicopter operating on routine patrol was found to be an active deterrent to crime. During a major incident or tactical operation, the presence of a police helicop- ter with a well-trained Pilot and Tactical Flight Officer act as a force multiplier for the overall police operation. • PROPOSED HOURLY RATE -- — �• „�;.�.-�-- - • 4;q8.1 The proposed contract rate for air support services by the Huntington Beach Po- lice Department Air Support Unit includes the Direct Operating Cost (DOC) of the helicopter.
