CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT
Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing
acceptance of a Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grant from the State of
California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) in the amount of $222,034.
BACKGROUND
The California Office of Traffic Safety is awarding grant funds for their Selcctive 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 I, 2009. The grant application requesting overtime reimbursement will become
operational on October 1,2009 and end September 30, 2010. The grant application was due by
January 31, 2009, and; therefore has already been submitted.
Due to time constraints the Grant Concept Proposal was not submitted to the Grant Ad Hoc
Committee or Council prior to the due date. Since that time the traffic unit supervisors have been
in contact with the California Office of Traffic Safety discussing details of the STEP grant. Thc
grant has recently been awarded to the Police Department.
The Police Department will use STEP grant funds, if awarded, to reimburse overtime expended
for strategies such as DUIIDriver's License checkpoints and 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 red light violations, aggressive speeders, vehicles equipped with illegal racing
equipment, pedestrian right-of-way violations, and unbelted vehicle occupants. Additionally,
enforcement operations will be directed to intersections with disproportionate numbers of traffic
collisions. 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
(9) nine DUI checkpoint operations, (12) twelve DUI saturation patrols, (2) two red light
enforcement operations, (2) two intersection enforcement operations with a disproportionate
number of traffic collisions, (4) four special enforcement operations targeting drivers exhibiting
excessive speed, (2) two special motorcycle enforcement operations, (I) one special enforcement
operations targeting vehicles suspected of being equipped with illegal street racing equipment,
and (2) two court sting operation to cite individuals driving from court after having their license
suspended or revoked.
Overtime funding will include two supervisor positions, one detective position, 10 officers and
two clerical positions for a total cost of $222,034. There is no matching fund requirement for this
grant.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Grant revenue in the amount of $222,034. There is no financial impact on the City's General
Fund. All grant funds must be expended by September 30,2010.

5. What percent of your total fatal and injury collisions October I, 2007 and September 30, 2008
occurred at intersections?
Approximately 50 %.
6. Describe the problem caused by red light running in your city.
Red light violations are historically among the top "Primary Collision Factors" responsible for collisions in
OUI community. We currently employ photo/video camera enforcement at six key intersections. There are
two more scheduled to be deployed during 2009. The intersections where the camera enforcement has been
deployed have demonstrated a noticeable decline in traffic collisions.
7. Is illegal street racing a problem in your city? If illegal street racing is a problem in your city, has
your department received training through San Diego Poliee Department's "DragNet" program on
how to conduct inspections ofvehicles suspected of being equipped with illegal street equipment?
We have not experienced enough street racing activity to allow us to declare it a problem. Fortunately we do
not have any locations that would be desireable for street races to take place on any large scale. We have
experienced an occassional collision that we feel might be related to street racing. These instances involved
excessive speed and vehicles equipped with modifications usually associated with street racers. To date we
have not received training from the San Diego Police Department "Drag Net" program. Some of oUI officers
have received training from the Bureau of Automotive Repair in recognizing and addressing illegal
modification violations.
8. What are your primary collision factors?
Historically, the majority of oUI primary collision factors involve speed, redlightlstopsign and right of way
violations. Excessive speed can be listed as associated in many of these collisions.
9. Seat belt citations make up what percent of all hazardous citations issued?
Seatbelt violations account for about 10% of all hazardous citations issued.
10. What is your current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days and how
much of the fee goes to the General Fund vs. a special Traffic Offender account? How is it used?
Our current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days is $215.00. Of that fee,
$55.00 is set aside in a special account designated to continue our grant goals and objectives from past
grants. The remaining $160.00 is placed into the city's general fund.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES:
Goals: Goals serve as the foundation upon which the grant is built. Goals are what you hope to accomplish by
implementing a traffic safety grant program.
I. To reduce the number of persons killed in traffic collisions.
2. To reduce the number of person injured in traffic collisions.

DUlIDL checkpoint operations must have signs reading "DUllDriver's License Checkpoint Ahead."
To maximize effectiveness, it may be necessary to conduct a checkpoint operation at more than one
location on any given dayl night. Each checkpoint should be highly publicized and visible. No
occupant restraint citations will be issued at the checkpoints. 01'8 does not fund or support

Note: To determine your department's appropriate hazardous citation level analyze your traffic
enforcement index (total hazardous citations divided by fatal and injury collisions). Northwestern
University teaches that a minimum traffic enforcement index of 25 is required to reach the citation
threshold of effectiveness in reducing traffic collisions. rfyour city has a large number of out-of-town
drivers, a traffic enforcement index in the 25-35 range may be more desirable. Out-of-town drivers are
generally not reached through education and voluntary compliance programs. The recommended traffic
enforcement index is a guide and not necessarily a rule.
NOTE: Nothing in this "agreement" shall be interpreted as a requirement. formal or informal. that a
particular police officer issue a specified or predetermined number of citations in pursuance of the
goals and objectives hereunder.
