Backeround•
The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) is awarding grant funds for their Selective Traffic
Enforcement Program (STEP) grant, using best-practice strategies shown to reduce traffic
collisions and gain favorable media coverage. OTS funding is based on the federal fiscal year
starting October 1, 2013. The grant application requesting overtime reimbursement will become
operational on October 1, 2013, and end September 30, 2014. The grant application is due
online by January 15, 2013. The Police Department has been awarded and has administered
similar grants over many years.
The Police Department will use STEP grant funds, if awarded, to reimburse overtime expended
for strategies such as DUI saturation patrols. This program will also develop a "Hot Sheet"

program to notify patrol and traffic officers to be on the lookout for identified repeat DUI
offenders with suspended or revoked licenses as a result of DUI convictions. Court "sting"
operations will focus on DUI offenders with suspended or revoked driver's licenses who get
behind the wheel after leaving court. Enforcement operations will target violations that
contribute to motorcycle collisions. Additional enforcement operations will be directed to
enforce distracted driving laws. Lastly, the STEP program will seek voluntary compliance of
traffic laws by generating publicity throughout the one-year grant period.
OTS will cover all costs associated with overtime for enforcement programs for the full 12-
month grant period. After conducting an evaluation of available resources and developing a
deployment strategy during this period, the Police Department has requested funding to conduct
14 DUI saturation patrols, four motorcycle safety enforcement operations, four distracted driving
enforcement operations, and two court sting operations.
The Police Department is also requesting that OTS cover the costs of grant related phlebotomy
services, office supplies, and two PAS devices as well as PAS device calibration gas.
Overtime funding will include supervisor, detective, officer, and clerical positions for a total cost
of$211,169.59. Staffing varies depending on the enforcement detail being worked. There is no
matching fund requirement for this grant. See Exhibit "A" for goals and objectives and budget
sections of the Grant application describing the agreement and allotted funds.
