At the November 22, 2016 Public Safety and Neighborhood Improvement meeting, staff presented
various Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD) patrol schedule options at the request of the Council
Committee. Four patrol schedule options were presented: a) 5 day/8 hour work schedule; b) 4
day/10 hour work schedule; c) 3 day/12.5 hour work schedule; and d) 3 day/12 hour and 4 day/12
hour work schedule. The Santa Ana Police Department currently operates under a 3 day/12.5 hour
patrol schedule. The 5 day/8 hour and 4 day/10 hour schedules are based on the patrol schedules
from the COPS Office manual "A Performance Based Approach to Police Staffing and Allocation."
The 3 day/12 hour and 4 day/12 hour schedules were the previous patrol schedules utilized by the
Santa Ana Police Department.
SAPD Field Operation's current patrol staffing level of 110 Police Officers was used to calculate
the number of officers working per day. The 110 police officer level does not include other
uniformed personnel such as Motor Officer, Gang Unit Officers, Directed Patrol and K9 Officers.
These sample schedules are being provided for informational purposes. The average percentage
of officers working per day on each respective schedule is listed in Table A below. Any changes
to the current patrol schedule would be subject to Meet and Confer with the Police Officers
Association.
