A TT ACHMENT A Garden Grove City: The City of Garden Grove proposes to use the 2007 Justice Assistance Grant funding as follows: Problem Statement: The Garden Grove Police Department has one of the lowest number of officers per capita of any city its size in California. This problem will only get worse as the City's population continues to increase. Unfortunately, Garden Grove's current financial condition prohibits the Department from hiring additional personnel. The Department to fulfill its ever increasing demand for officers, must develop alternative solutions to increase officer time in the field without hiring additional Personnel Goal: Create operational efficiencies in Patrol that would generate the equivalent productive hours of up to five additional Police Officers that could be used to augment patrol operations. Obiectives: Contracting out jail services will allow the Police Department to concentrate much more of its efforts on community safety instead of expending energy and resources on jail operations. The jail contract will allow sworn police officers to process arrestees and return to their field duties in as little as 15 minutes. This in turn will increase their availability to handle additional calls for servIce. Quantifiable Performance Measures: The hours saved will be calculated by multiplying the number of arrestees processed in the jail, and multiplying that by the average time saved by officers not having to process and transport the prisoner themselves. Fundinz: Total Allocation: $75,736.00 PROACT Contribution: $36,731.96 Administrative Fee (1.5%): $1,136.04 F'unds Retained by City: $37,868.00 Huntington Beach City: The City of Huntington Beach proposes to use the 2007 Justice Assistance Grant funding as follows: Problem Statement: We currently lack the ability to record evidence through the use of an in-car video & audio system. 2007-DJ-BX-0523 Page 8 of 19
