The grant requires that funding be <br />allocated to counties and cities in accordance with specific requirements for front-line law <br />enforcement services. Front line law enforcement typically includes community oriented policing <br />projects and special law enforcement activities that require use of additional police officers in <br />specially targeted saturation areas. Total funding allocation is based on annual estimated <br />population figures for respective counties and cities. <br />During FY 2011-12 the City received $255,328 of SLESF funding and approval of this <br />appropriation adjustment will provide for additional overtime resources to assist with our front-line <br />law enforcement efforts. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Approval of the appropriation with the acceptance of SLESF funds in the City's Police Grants <br />Revenue Account (account no. 12814002-52026) in the amount of $255,328, will increase the <br />same into the Police Department Grant expenditure overtime account (account no. 12814407- <br />61040). <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br />Paul M.
