C I TY OF SAN LU I S O B I S P O
FROM: James M. Gardiner,Chief of Police
Prepared By: Kathe Bishop, Management Assistan
SUBJECT: 2002/03 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant Expenditure Plan
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving an expenditure of $30,469, in 2002/03 Local Law Enforcement
Block Grant Funds, with a required local 1/9' City match of$3,385 to enhance security measures
in and around the Police Department facility as recommended by the Chief of Police.
DISCUSSION
The primary reason this item comes before the City Council, at this time, is for a public hearing
to be held on the 2002/03 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG). As required by the
LLEBG grant, a public hearing must be held prior to receiving grant funds.
On December 11, 2001, the Council appointed the Local Law Enforcement Block Grants
Advisory Board in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Omnibus Appropriations Act
(Public Law 104-34). As with previous law enforcement block grants, the Advisory Board has
been tasked with an advisory recommendation, based on expenditures proposed by the Chief of
Police, in accordance with the provisions of the law.
The recommendation for these funds, as proposed by the Chief of Police, is to enhance security
measures in and around the Police Department facility. While the security enhancements will be
more specifically identified after further staff evaluation with input from City Information
Systems and City Building Maintenance staff, the areas of focus include: (1) Replacement
and/or addition of audio/video cameras in key areas including the lobby, booking area, holding
cells, sally port and parking lot; (2) Replacement and/or addition of surveillance monitoring
devices in the dispatch center and the watch commander's office; (3) Reconditioning or
replacement of the lobby front entrance doors and frame, and; (4) The addition of access coded
keypad entry to two or more doors.
Again, the law requires a public hearing be held within a specific time period prior to receiving
grant funds, as such, it is presented to Council at this time.
CONCURRENCE
The LLEBG Advisory Board concurs with this recommendation.

FISCAL IMPACT
The approval of the 2002/03 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant funds requires a 1/9'match of
$3,385 which is available within existing City resources, as this money cannot be taken from the
Police Department budget due to existing Block Grant restrictions.
