ATTACHMENT A Anaheim City: The City of Anaheim proposes to use the 2007 Justice Assistance Grant funding as follows: Problem Statement: SWAT officers work in extremely high-risk and dangerous situations where suspects often shoot at the officers with varying types of firearms. Due to the unpredictability of these situations, SWAT officers need specialized protection against gunfire. Goal: To ensure the safety of SWAT officers by providing them with proper protective gear and equipment. Obiectives: Approximately 25 Level IlIA type ballistic vests will be purchased and distributed to SWAT officers. Quantifiable Performance Measures: Approximately 25 ballistic vests will be purchased by the grant's end date. Funding: Total Allocation: $158,390.00 PROACT Contribution: $76,819.15 Administrative Fee (1.5%): $2,375.85 Funds Retained by City: $79,195.00 Buena Park City: The City of Buena Park proposes to use the 2007 Justice Assistance Grant funding as follows: Problem Statement: The Police Department currently has a patrol staff of 38 sworn officers. Due to the budget constraints, this number is down from 39 as of July 2004. Additional budget constraints a few years ago reduced the number of Community Service Aides (CSA - Front Counter Personnel) from 13 to 10. This reduction has resulted in field officers handling more reports in the field and at the front counter. Due to this reduction, field officers are spending less time conducting primary patrol duties, which serves and protects the population of Buena Park. In order to return the current sworn staff to regular patrol duties, civilian report takers continuously need to be hired to assist in the everyday operations of report taking. This will continue to allow our patrol officers to protect property, and to ensure the safety of the residents, business community, and visitors alike. 2007-DJ-BX-0523 Page 5 of 19 -
