RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to amend the agreement with Community Services Program
Inc., to operate a domestic violence victim advocacy program for an
addi tional amount of $14,815, for a total aggregate amount not to exceed
$57,505.
DISCUSSION
In December 2005, the California Office of Emergency Services awarded the
Police Department grant funding in the amount of $95,701 for the Santa
Ana's Focused Enforcement Team (SAFE-Team) project. This third year
funding provides for the assignment of an additional domestic violence
investigator and a full-time victim advocate to handle cases of domestic
violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The Police Department works in a
collaborative effort with Community Services Program, Inc. (CSP) to provide
additional personnel to work with victims of domestic violence and violence
against women in general.
Due to unanticipated benefit costs for the full-time victim advocate
provided by CSP, an additional $14,815 is required to continue their
services. Staff requests approval to increase the aggregate limit for CSP.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the
Services account (account no.
