STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT:
Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing the
Police Department to ratify and accept the ABC grants proposal for local law enforcement from
the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control in the amount of approximately $50,000.
BACKGROUND:
In February 2004, the San Bernardino Police Department received a letter from the Department
of Alcohol Beverage Control informing our agency of the ABC grants for local law enforcement.
The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control is anticipating offering $1.5 million in grants for
the Fiscal Year 2004/2005.
Effective July 1,2004, the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control will award grants up to
$100,000 to local law enforcement agencies. These grants will enable the selected agencies to
expand their present efforts in addressing alcohol-related problems through a comprehensive
ABC program that will encompass a wide range of strategies. If our agency is selected, our two
Vice officers will be assigned to the project. They will work closely with ABC investigators and
receive training in ABC law, alcohol enforcement strategies, and community resources.
The San Bernardino Police Department Vice Unit currently conducts ABC programs. We have
established a very good working relationship with the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control
_ Riverside office. Some of the programs that will be conducted involve decoy programs,
shoulder tap programs, and miscellaneous other ABC investigations that focus on compliance by
the ABC licensed premises. A decoy program is commonly operated by a detective and a
minimum of two patrol officers. The decoy is a citizen volunteer, age 18 to 19 years. ABC
licensed retail outlets such as gas stations, liquor stores and mini-markets are randomly selected.
The decoy will enter the business and attempt to purchase an alcoholic beverage such as a l2-oz.
bottle of beer or a six pack of beer and an undercover officer will act as a witness. The
undercover officer also acts as a close cover for the decoy. If the sales clerk or business owner
sells an alcoholic beverage to the decoy, the undercover officer will then notify the assisting
officers (the arrest team) and the violator is placed under arrest at this time. The person arrested
will receive a citation at the scene. The decoy program is designed to act as an enforcement tool
for those businesses that are not in compliance and additionally, act as an educational tool for
those same businesses and businesses that are in compliance.
A "shoulder tap" program also requires one detective and a minimum of two patrol officers. The
decoy (age 18 to 19 years) will stand in front ofa business where alcohol is sold. An undercover
officer acts as a witness and as close cover for the decoy. The decoy will solicit patrons entering
the business to see if they will purchase an alcoholic beverage for them. If a citizen commits the
violation and purchases an alcoholic beverage for the decoy, that citizen is placed under arrest.
Again, a citation is issued in the field to that person.
These are the two most common ABC enforcement programs that will most often be used. The
decoy program vs. a "shoulder tap" program allows the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control
to investigate the violation often resulting in a suspension where the business is prohibited to sell
alcoholic bev~rages during specific periods of time. The "shoulder tap" program does not have
the same effect and is more of an enforcement tool and education tool for the public.
Currently, we have a dedicated two person Vice Unit with their direct supervision coming under
a sergeant. In addition to the enforcement of ABC related activities, this unit is responsible for
the enforcement of all vice related crimes to include street level prostitution, escorts, motel
prostitution, massage parlors, gaming and carnivals, gambling, animal fighting, lewd act
investigations in the parks and the adult bookstores. They also work directly with City Hall,
particularly the Business Registration Department and the Planning Department.
The project will fall under the direct supervision of the Vice Unit and they will be responsible for
the implementation of the project and for the continuous monitoring and evaluation of the
effectiveness of the project. They will complete all necessary progress reports required of the
grant.
We will be joining ABC by providing educational opportunities to the licensees and concerned
organizations. Preventative methods will be implemented at the ABC licensed locations where
problems are occurring or where the licensee desires police assistance. Accordingly, the City
Attorney's Office and the District Attorney's Office are actively, aggressively involved in the
successful prosecution of the criminal offenses and also any prevention efforts that we can
employ.
On March 20, 2004, the police department submitted the completed grant application requesting
$50,000 in state funding. On March 21, 2004, we were advised that our application was
approved.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The grant funding is primarily for overtime to be used for undercover enforcement programs.
The overtime is to be spread out evenly over the period of the grant. The grant, which is July
2004 through June 2005, is a reimbursement grant. There will be no cost to the City over the
amount of the grant.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Adopt resolution.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
(Maximum 8 Da~es. Font size no smaller than 12 point.)
o BACKGROUND
The City of San Bernardino is the county seat in San Bernardino County. San Bernardino is at the base of the
San Bernardino National Forest and the neighboring cities include; Highland, Lorna Linda, Rialto, Colton and
Devore. Interstate freeways 1-215 and 1-10 provide travel through our city. We are home to California State
University San Bernardino where more than 15,000 students are enrolled. There are approximately 347 ABC
licensed premises in San Bernardino for residents and non-residents to access alcoholic beverages.
The agency has the responsibility to provide police service to a wide range of citizenry including a large
population in the lower socio-economic bracket. The city encompasses 60 square mile with an estimated
population 185,40 I. According to the United States economic forecast, the Inland Empire, which incorporates
the city, is one of the top ten growth areas in the nation with the fastest developing urban area. Located 60
miles east of Los Angeles, it is one hour driving time from popular children attractions, mountain resorts, the
high desert, and beaches.
The city is ethnically diverse with 36% ofthe population of Anglo descent, 16% African American, 5%
Asian, and 43% Hispanic. In addition recent analysis has shown that approximately 31 % of the city's
population is under the age of 18. The San Bernardino Polic~ Department consists of 453 personnel, including
158 non sworn and 295 sworn personnel. The department has adopted Community Policing and Problems
Solving, (COPPS) as a department wide policing strategy. In 1998 the department was the recipient of the
governors award for organizational achievement for training excellence in the area of community policing.
c
Currently we have a dedicated two person Vice unit with their direct supervision coming under a sergeant. In
addition to the enforcement of ABC related activities, this unit is responsible for the enforcement of all vice
related crimes to include street level prostitution, escorts, motel prostitution, massage parlors, gaming and
carnivals, gambling, animal fighting, lewd act investigations in the parks, and the adult book stores. They
also work directly with city hall, particularly the Business Registration Department and the Planning
Department.
The project will fall under the direct supervision of the vice unit and they will be responsible for the
implementation of the project and for the continuous monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of the
project. They will complete all necessary progress reports required of the grant.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The primary problem as identified by the Vice officers is the increased drain on police services as a result of
underage drinking at the ABC licensed locations. The secondary problem is the associated crimes of drinking
in public, public intoxication, intoxicated patrons fighting in the parking lots and general quality of life issues
for the businesses and residences that are closely located to the licensed location. The use of scarce police
services to deal with these crimes impacts our ability to respond to serious and/or violent felony crimes. The
City of San Bernardino has had an increase in the reported crime rate, as have most of the cities throughout
the state. This coupled with the low socio-economic citizens, and the over 15,000 students enrolled at Cal
State University San Bernardino, challenges our abilities to safely provide for the safety of all city residents.
There are over 340 ABC licensed establishments and only two vice officers to monitor their compliance.
Among the most problematic are several large night club type establishments that draw under age patrons
from as far away as San Diego to the south and Los Angeles to the west. Often times businesses that are
located close to the licensed establishments suffer economically as they are forced to close when the patrons
of the establishments loiter and prevent them from carrying on the normal operations.

PROJECT NARRATIVE continued
c
Both the local City Attorney, who handles the various municipal code violations, and the District Attorneys
office, who prosecute the state law violations are actively, aggressively involved in the successful prosecution
of the criminal offenses and also any prevention efforts that we can employ. Obviously the prevention efforts
are preferred as this will reduce the drain of their limited resources.
Currently with only two officers assigned to full time investigatory responsibilities and the large amount of
physical locations it is very difficult to adequately ensure proper compliance with all applicable ABC laws, as
well as local statutes. The officers have done a tremendous job in the past year with prior grant funding from
the state. They were able to increase the amount of programs over 200% with the prior funding. To date this
has resulted in approximately 193 arrests and citations for various alcohol related crimes. Prior to the
increased overtime the two officers did not have enough time to adequately investigate complaints, or take
any proactive, preventive actions.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES
Through past experience it has been found that a two prong attack on the problem has been effective. The first
step is a proactive educational effort directed at the ABC establishments who through their location or past
history have a high likelihood of underage patrons trying to purchase or use alcohol. Educational efforts are
also directed at the underage population that may try to purchase alcohol. This is accomplished through a
working relationship with the officials at Cal State University San Bernardino and San Bernardino Valley
College. We will also continue our participation in the Cal State University Partnership program.
o
By doing on site visits with the owners/operators and providing them with the necessary information to help
their employees identify underage patrons and take the appropriate steps to eliminate that activity we can
reduce the enforcement efforts. A secondary benefit from the educational efforts is the development of a
partnership with the establishment. This helps to open the lines of communication and to encourage the rapid
exchange of timely information.
The second step in attacking the problem is the use of decoy programs to target the offenders themselves.
Several of the methods that have been use successfully in the past and will continue to be aggressively
pursued is the "shoulder tap" method of undercover operatives trying to have others purchase the alcohol for
them and also the "decoy" program where underage operatives try to purchase the alcohol themselves. We
have also worked with ABC personnel in identifying the use of false or fraudulent identification at licensed
establishments.
The laptop computer will be used in both the preventative and enforcement parts of our attack. The vast
amount of information available through both the state and other resources can be presented in a Power Point
format to groups or individuals. The portability of the unit will allow for real time tracking of statistical
information and will be used to store photo documentation for both judicial and administrative proceedings.
METHOD OF PROCEDURE
The grant funds would allow the San Bernardino Police Department to continue to have a definite impact on
the identified problems. We will continue to work cooperatively with ABC investigators from the Riverside
office. We will continue to strategize our efforts to provide education and prevention programs to the public
and the licensees, and we will conduct enforcement at ABC licensed premises.

PROJECT NARRATIVE continued
The programs will consist of I) Decoy Programs, 2) Shoulder Tap Programs, 3) IMP ACT Programs, 4) Trap
Door Programs, and 5) Cops in Shops Programs. We will continue to have Task Force Operations and we
would schedule two LEAD Training sessions. One goal would be to conduct programs in trouble spots where
arresting people are necessary, and meet with the licensee(s) andlor management to resolve the problems.
Encouraging compliance with the ABC rules and regulations would be achieved by involving them in solving
alcohol-related problems. For example, a nightclub owner that is having trouble with minors using fake !D's
would allow us to conduct a Trap Door program. The grant funds will allow the San Bernardino Police
Department to conduct these programs on a weekly rather than a monthly basis to ensure that both the
establishments and the patrons are aware of the close monitoring by the department and to continue to
maintain a presence at the college and university.
The vice officers that are currently assigned have years of experience in the identification of violations and
also a very good working relationship with the local ABC officials. They are highly proactive and realize that
through their hard work and efforts that a high quality oflife can be established and maintained in the city.
METHOD OF EV ALUA TION
As with any enforcement efforts the ultimate goal is the reduction of the violations. The Vice officers have
been closely monitoring their past efforts and in fact have been providing monthly reports on the last grant
funding we received. Statistics are checked weekly and measured against prior years to see if the ,
enforcements efforts have been successful. The officers also check citywide crime patterns and trends to see if
the ancillary crimes that tend to follow the underage drinking are being reduced by their efforts.
This regular examination allows them to focus the resources on the locations that have the highest incidence
of violations, so that we can get the most impact from our limited resources. The San Bernardino Police
. Department has a 5 person Crime Analysis unit that supports the vice unit in identifying possible target
establishments. This unit uses the Arc View software system, and has the resources of ESRI systems to
prepare comprehensive visual analysis of the data which the vice officers use to target problem locations.
ABC LIASON
The San Bernardino Police Department is currently working closely with investigators from the Riverside
ABC office under the grant for California State University Partnership. Prior to the grant funding our officers
developed and maintained a close working relationship with the ABC investigators. With the large volume of
licensed locations in our city and the problems we have experienced with them, these close ties have been
extremely beneficial to both organizations, and will continue. The grant funds will allow to the San
Bernardino Police Department to continue with this close working relationship and ultimately allow a
successful use of the grants funds.
STATEMENT OF INTENT
Underage drinking and the types of crimes that follow from it have been and will continue to be a high
priority for the San Bernardino Police Department. We have had great success so far in our partnership with
ABC and the department is committed to maintaining this relationship in the future.
