Services Funds in the amount of $275,138.44 into the revenue account (account no 12814002-

DISCUSSION
The State of California provides grant funding to state law enforcement agencies through the
Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund (SLESF). This program requires that funding be
allocated to counties and cities in accordance with specific requirements for front-line law
enforcement services. Front-line law enforcement typically includes community oriented policing
projects and special law enforcement activities that require use of additional police officers in
specially targeted saturation areas.
Total funding allocation is based on annual estimated population figures for respective counties and
cities. Based on Santa Ana's estimated population figures for 2011, the Police Department has
received a FY 2011/12 SLESF award of $275,138.44. This is the sixteenth year the Police
Department has received funding from the State of California through this program.
On September 6, 2011, Council approved the proposed expenditure plan for the FY 2011/12 SLESF.
The Police Department proposes to utilize this funding for enforcement activities including gang
suppression, cruiser enforcement, and career criminal apprehension.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the appropriation adjustment will increase revenues in the SLESF FY 2011/12 Year 16
revenue account (account no. 12814002-52026) by $275,138.44 and increase the same into the
expenditure accounts (account nos.12814407-61040).
