BACKGROUND On July 10, 2000, the Mayo!' and Common Council ratified Resolution #2000-209 approving and adopting the final budget for FY 00/01. In Septembel' 2000, the San Bernardino Police Department managers began an in-depth study of the department's structure to introspectively evaluate its progress and examine alternatives to allow advances to be maintained and improved upon. These discussions resulted in a compl'ehensive plan to realign department resources effective June 1, 2001, towards the ovel'arching goals to: . incl'ease internal communication to advance the department's problem-solving efforts, improve linkages with external stakeholdel's, and enhance essential services. . . The l'ealignment will enhance the Police Department's problem-solving and crime-fighting abilities and maintain the department's goal to be a leader in "establishing the standard of excellence in policing." Specifically, the realignment will accomplish the following. ~ Retain all five area commands. This requires a Table of Organization that l'eflects 10 police lieutenants. ~ Implement a collaborative parolee management program ~ Provide crime analysis capabilities at the area command level ~ Cl'eate problem-oriented policing liaison officers ~ Expand the Crime Free Rental Housing program and other crime prevention programs ~ Fully integrate the Detective Bureau into problem solving ~ Cl'eate a Special Enforcement Bureau to concentrate l'esources on targeting violent crime ~ Expand the District Crimes Bureau for increased impact on robbery, burglary, and auto theft ~ Create a "High-Tech Crimes" detective position The l'ealignment will require the transfer of personnel and changing of duties and responsibilities. These changes will necessitate the purchase of office equipment and the conversion and "roll down" of marked units into detective vehicles. The cost of these items total $105,500 and are outlined in the Realignment Budget (attached). As of May 24, 2001, the department's asset forfeiture undesignated fund balance was $327,489. The San Bernardino Police Department and the Parole Division of the State of California Department of Corrections have entered into a collaborative parolee management partnership effective Thursday, June 7, 2001. Parole agents have been chosen and assigned, effective that date, to partner with police officers to provide orientation to newly released parolees, monitor their compliance and accountability to the parole terms, and track displacement. State Parole is assigning these parole agents to the individual area command offices. The Resolution funds the necessary infrastructure, furniture, and equipment needs that will ensure program productivity and success. FINANCIAL IMPACT There will be no financial impact to the Genel'al Fund in FY 01/02. The funding source to covel' the incl'ease in the Asset Forfeiture Expenditure budget is available in the Asset Forfeiture Undesignated Fund balance. RECOMMENDATION 1. That the Mayor and Common Council approve the Police Department's request to amend the FY 00/01 budget to reflect a $105,500 increase in the Asset Forfeiture Expenditul'e budget, as outlined in the attached Realignment Budget. 2.
