Acceptance of the grant required a 10% local cash match of $98,819 that will not be waived. This year's block grant will be utilized to purchase NCIC 2000 technology, which will improve the department's efficiency, networking capability with other law enforcement agencies, and crime fighting ability. DISTRESSED NEIGHBORHOODS GRANT SUPPORT In June 1998, the City of San Bernardino was selected to participate in the Distressed Neighborhoods Pilot Program Grant funded by the U.S. Department of Justice. The grant will provide $1,656,712 to fund 100% of the salary and benefits for eight police officer positions for three years. The funding contained in this expenditure plan will provide officers assigned to the Distressed Neighborhoods Team with fully equipped police vehicles, radios and computer equipment necessary to achieve the grant objectives. Cameras, film and film developing and printing along with emergency board ups of blighted structures is essential to the success of the grant objectives and to improve the quality of life and conditions of the targeted neighborhood. AUTOMATION SUPPORT ITEMS The Police Department's replacement RMS/CAD computer system was placed in operation in September 1998. This expenditure plan includes funding to purchase the CAD/CLETS 'Q' command line software to allow dispatchers to run vehicle license plates during pursuits and other calls for service without pulling up a separate data entry screen. This allows dispatchers to be more efficient in supporting patrol operations and avoids time delays in running license plates and keeping track of officer activity during emergency situations. The Prolog workstation in the watch commander's office will provide watch commanders with the ability to immediately access and play taped telephone and radio conversations. This capability is critical for in-progress type events. . 98-305 The calendar year 1999 renewal of the unlimited user license for the Penal Code, Vehicle Code. and California Peace Officers Legal Source Book software places these reference items readily available on each desktop and laptop computer in the department. An expansion of our Imageware software program will provide Identification Technicians with a laptop computer with Imageware software to construct electronic composites of crime suspects, Our service to the public will be improved by providing this immediate investigative follow up 24 hours-a-day, 7 days a week. The document imaging enhancements provide additional hardware necessary to streamline the workflow, speed up the processing and distribution of crime and arrest reports and reduce the time associated with handling paper documents. The additional desktop PC will provide document-imaging access in each of the Community Services Offices to support the area detective and POP team activities. The document imagingfTRAVIS software interface will allow reports collected on TRAVIS report software to be electronically scanned into document imaging without a paper hard copy. This enhancement will speed up the distribution of crime and arrest reports as well as crime statistical data needed to support deployment of field and investigative personnel. Twelve existing laser printers need to be upgraded with additional memory and Xip print accelerator cards to support document imaging. EFFICIENCY ENHANCEMENTS The Police Department will replace the shotgun racks with manual locks in marked police units with racks having electronic locks. This purchase will provide additional officer safety as the rack will be repositioned within the unit for immediately accessible. The purchase of MP-5 .9mm suppressed rifles will enhance the Multiple Enforcement Team's (MET) mission of conducting SWAT operations and provide stealth capabilities. A pilot program for computer-aided traffic accident diagram preparation pilot program will implemented and evaluated. Diagram software will be installed in desk top PC located in the report room, traffic unit and community services offices. Employees will be able to prepare diagrams utilizing a database of stored "master diagrams" previously researched and entered. This will save time in preparing diagrams and ensure accuracy. A multi-feature plain paper fax machine is needed in Records to receive numerous subpoenas for our employees that are faxed by the District Attorney's Office and other agencies with subpoena powers and to fax crime reports directly from document imaging to insurance companies and other requestors. J ?8-305 . . CITY EMERGENCY OPERATION CENTER REDESIGN Representatives from the police and fire departments have met to evaluate the readiness of the City's primary Emergency Operation Center, located at the police department. They will be preparing an action report that identifies expenditures needed for efficient EOC operations. These expenditures include the purchase of computer equipment, tables and televisions as well as construction items necessary to support the reconfigured EOC operations. OVERTIME Overtime expenditures for department personnel, above approved General Fund overtime appropriations, will support proactive, directed crime suppression programs; I.e. saturation patrols following a crime of high community interest to prevent retaliation, stakeouts and surveillance, and curfew enforcement programs using a joint-agency curfew center concept. This funding, combined with $176,755 earmarked in our FY 97-99 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant, totals $229,526 in available overtime to augment General Fund appropriations. ADMINISTRATIVE OVERHEAD COPS Option legislation authorizes the charging of 0.5% of total COPS funds for city administrative overhead associated with the grant. The intent of this provision is to offset in part the costs associated with procuring equipment and software and payroll processing expenses for overtime expenditures.
