In FY 99/00 and FY 00/01 this position was funded by LLEBG funds. We need to maintain the current level of staffing and supervision in the Property and Evidence facility to provide adequate staffing to process, store and safeguard property and evidence in police custody and protect the department and City from liability arising from the mishandling or loss of these items. Maintaining this position will provide additional safeguards to minimize the City's exposure to liability in this critical area of police operations. MIS Support MIS is critical to the Department's efforts in accurately diagnosing trends/pattems, active perpetrators, records input and maintenance, and problem solving. Funding for the MIS public safety support staff needs to be maintained. In FY 99/00, the police department funded three MIS positions through grants and a fourth position using evidence impound funds. This includes two programmers and a computer operator working on police computer systems and a third programmer working on fire computer systems. In FY 00/01, the Department utilized FY 00/01 LLEBG funds to cover the cost of all four positions. MDC Air Time Fees In December 1999, the police department implemented the Mobile Data Computer (MDC) project to replace our aging Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs) used for voiceless data communication. The system uses the County's 19.2 data backbone for communication. Grant funds will be used to cover these additional costs. Marked Police Unit Lease Payments Council Resolution #1999-60 authorized the purchase of four black and white Ford Crown Victoria police interceptors to support the COPS Distressed Neighborhood Pilot Program Grant. Lease payments for FY 01/02 will be paid with LLEBG funding. c Document Imaging Upgrade The Information Services Division has identified several major operational and technology related issues with the police department's current document imaging system that need to be resolved to support department operations and realignment. These issues are as follows: · The jukebox or storage system is out of production and no longer supported by a maintenance agreement. All maintenance and upkeep is completed on a costly time and materials basis. Acquiring replacement parts is becoming difficult. . The optical storage platters are no longer in production and not readily available for purchase. Supplies on hand will cover storage needs through the end of October 2001. · Annual maintenance contract costs are expensive when compared with other vendors. · The current vendor uses a "thick-client" approach that stores all programming files on the master document-imaging computer (server) at the central Police Department as opposed to individual computers. Department realignment requires a "thin-client" approach using Intranet based "web browsers" to eliminate delays in acquiring imaged documents at our remote community service centers. The police department is committing FY 01/02 LLEBG funds to partially cover the cost of replacing/upgrading the document imaging system. C Crime Free Rental Housing c The Crime Free Rental Housing (CFRH) program is a key component of the police department's effort in reducing crime associated with multi-family dwellings. The cost for FY 01/02 is $103,400. This includes $43,150 for personnel costs and $8,550 for maintenance and operation costs. .. Stock of multi-unit rental properties is plentiful. Historically, multi-unit rental properties, which are rundown or blighted, have had a negative impact on the image of the city and contribute to criminal activity. The City, during the last several years, has experienced substantial reduction in the crime rate. CFRH has been a key component in that effort and is critical to the City's future. The police department will pick up one-half of the total cost of the program ($51,700) using FY01/02 LLEBG funds. ** FOR OFFICE USE ONLY - NOT A PUBLIC DOCUMENT ** RESOLUTION AGENDA ITEM TRACKING FORM Meeting Date (Date Adopted): 10- \ -0 \ Vote: Ayes I-'"{ Nays Change to motion to amend original documents: Item # ~ Resolution # Ad-- Abstain .-G-- 2001 ~ 310 Absent -e- Reso. # On Attachments: ~ Contract term: Note on Resolution of Attachment stored separately: -==--- Direct City Clerk to (circle I): PUBLISH, POST, RECORD W/COUNTY NullNoid After: By: - Date Sent to Mayor: \()-~-C)\ Reso.
