ATTACHMENT A <br /> City: Placentia <br /> The City of Placentia proposes to use the 2009 Justice Assistance Grant funding as <br /> follows: <br /> Project Ob "ec~ Lives (Type of programs to be funded and need for the programs; refer to <br /> solicitation) To purchase new Taser X26 electronic devices for deployment to Patrol <br /> <br /> . Officers. We believe the Taser X26 devices will reduce the potential for injury to both <br /> officers and the public during criminal arrests and taking into protective custody of violent <br /> persons. <br /> Goals of the.project: Enable all on-duty officers and supervisors assigned to Patrol Division <br /> to be able to carry Taser X26 devices on-duty at all times. Original quantity of devices <br /> purchased enabled only some of the on-duty patrol officers to possess and deploy these <br /> devices. There are not currently enough to equip all uniformed personnel assigned to some <br /> shifts. Additionally, new deployment policy created a third watch for overlap coverage and <br /> increased the number of officers working between 1530 hours and 0330 hours nightly. <br /> More Tasers need to be purchased to equip all of these personnel. <br /> Strategies to be used .for project: Simply, acquire enough devices to equip the maximum <br /> number of patrol officers deployed on any given shift. Night Watch Friday, Saturday and <br /> Sunday staffing in Patrol Division is presently eight personnel. Secondly, train all officers <br /> in the use and deployment of X26 Taser devices for deployment. Available funding can <br /> purchase 12 new Tasers X26 XDPM devices. <br /> Quantifiable Performance Measures: (Established by the agency to assess whether grant <br /> objectives are being met; refer to solicitation) Require shift Watch Commanders to <br /> document number of officers deployed with these devices, once all sworn officers are <br /> trained. (Currently, approx training 90% compliance.) Supervisory reports will be sent to <br /> training compliance officer for accounting. Training compliance officer will identify any <br /> officer requiring training and schedule immediate training during duty. <br /> Timeline and/or project plan: (Identifying when the goals and objectives will be completed) <br /> Within one month of purchase and receipt of Taser Devices, all remaining personnel will be <br /> trained and full deployment is anticipated. <br /> Funding: <br /> Total Allocation: $12,299 <br /> PROACT Contribution: (possible 10%) $0 <br /> Administrative Fee (9%): $1107 <br /> Funds Retained by City/County: $11,192 <br /> 2009- DJ-BX-0033 Page 21 of 27 <br /> 20A-28 <br /> <br />
