HomeMy WebLinkAboutDocumentation_Regular_Tab 9G_11/14/1996 Memorandum To: Village Council From: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager :7j Date: November 7, 1996 Subject: Village Council Authorization of Cops More 96 Grant Application; Agenda Item Recently, Village staff had an opportunity to apply for the Cops More 96 Grant Program wherein we seek a Federal request of $22, 500 for the acquisition of ten laptop computers to be used in the patrol vehicles at an estimated cost of $3, 000 each for a total expenditure of $30,000 . Tequesta' s obligation would be $7,500 . Under the Assurances section of the grant application, the governing body must legally and officially authorize application for this grant. Therefore, we are seeking Village Council authorization, retroactively. We have been advised that in the event the Village Council disapproves, we can simply contact the U. S. Department of Justice and withdraw our application. The Tequesta Police administration hope to have the Tequesta share of the grant money ( $7,500) via the Special Law Enforcement Trust Fund. The Trust Fund currently has $2, 729 and the Department has confiscated a vehicle that, hopefully, will provide funds sufficient to meet Tequesta' s share. Also, the forthcoming sale of surplus Police Department vehicles should provide more than a sufficient amount of funding to meet our obligation when combined with the other sources . The purpose for Tequesta' s pursuit of this grant is, and I quote directly from Lt. Garlo' s application, as follows : "Currently, officers can expend one to two hours per shift in hand writing reports and forms for cases and other assigned tasks . Availability of laptop computer technology will significantly reduce the time invested in routine administrative requirements and increase the physical presence of officers in the community to interact with residents and visitors . One of the benefits of this increased visibility will be to serve the perceived needs of our citizens for higher profile public police presence and to create an atmosphere of heightened security and safety within the community. We estimate that laptop computers will free approximately 45 minutes to one hour and 15 minutes per officer per shift. The resulting time savings will provide up to one and one-half additional equivalent officers to be re-deployed for community policing activities . Our long term community policing goal is to maximize the use of technology and other innovative strategies to more effectively accomplish the Police Department mission of insuring the highest possible quality of life, safety and security in the Village. " Staff feels we have a valid demonstration of need, have a relatively good chance of approval and, hopefully, funding will be in hand at the time of grant award and Tequesta' s required payment. It is respectfully requested that the Village Council approve Tequesta' s Cops More 96 grant application.

(Please see attached supplement) 26 "Application Form:COPS MORE'96(This page must be returned to the COPS Office.)** Community Policing Strategy The Tequesta Police Department has been committed to a Community Policing philosophy for several years, and actively involved in such an approach to enforcement since receiving our Cops Fast grant in 1995. Community Policing skills and attitudes re emphasized and reinforced throughout the field training program for orientation of newly hired officers, as well as during regular in-service training conducted in the department. Each of our sixteen officers are considered to be a Community Policing officer as integral to his or her daily duties. Almost all of the elements of the department's mission statement are oriented toward community policing approaches to the services we provide to our residents and visitors. Some of the Community Policing strategies, activities and services that are part of our daily practice include: 1-Alternative Police Patrol Police Bicycle Patrol Foot patrols in business areas 2- Residential and business security reviews. 3- Video documentation of valuables upon request. 4-Community education courses in: Bicycle Safety Crimes against the elderly Commercial and residential crime watch programs Children's' safety 5- Directed Patrol Program in which each officer is responsible for selecting and accomplishing specific community policing activities during his or her shift. The efficiencies to be realized by improved technology offered by laptop computers, to be partially funded in this grant, will provide an anticipated ten percent increase in the overall time that officers have available to interact on a face-to-face level with people in the community. The flexibility and portability of the laptops will free officers from being tied to a desk at the station while they accomplish the time consuming but necessary administrative aspects of their daily routine. They will have up to an extra hour per day to participate in bicycle patrol, or to work directly with local residents and business owners on security concerns and other matters. We expect that, more than merely an increased visible police presence,the additional time provided for community interaction will result in a greater familiarity and openness among community members and officers. Expanded communications should provide greater opportunities not only to anticipate citizens needs but also to be more proactive in our crime prevention activities. Grant of the requested funds will provide, in effect, an additional officer to serve the community. With sixteen sworn officers in the Village we will realize an approximate six percent increase in officer staffing. We expect at least an equivalent service delivery improvement in response to the needs of our community. . s OMB APPROVAL NO 1121-0188 EXPIRES 5-98 Budget Detail Worksheet Agency Name and State: Tequesta Police Department/Florida ORI# (FBI ID Number): FL0503100 k Personnel List each position by title and name of employee,if available..Show the annual salary rate and the percentage• of time to be devoted to the project.
