The funds must be used for "front line municipal police services," as determined by the City Council during a public hearing held each year. In previous years, the City of Moorpark has received and used these funds as follows: 1996/97 $64,578 Motorcycle, computer upgrades, video cameras, miscellaneous 1997/98 $65,320 Administrative Assistant position, vehicle expenses, video surveillance camera, night vision binoculars, portable generator, FAX broadcast system, computer upgrades 1998/99 $50,334 Administrative Assistant position 1999/00 $65,730 Administrative Assistant position, laptop computer In some years the city did not spend all the grant funds received. These unspent funds, along with interest earnings in the account, has resulted in a balance of $43,782 on June 30, 2000. 04C)O0 ®1. Honorable City Council October 4, 2000 Page 2 DISCUSSON The actual grant award for the 2000/2001 fiscal year has not been determined at this time, however, new state legislation has guaranteed at least $100,000 for each jurisdiction and the City does not expect to receive significantly more than the minimum allocation. This $100,000 allocation, along with the balance of $43,782 already available in the fund, means that $143,782 is available for the 2000/2001 fiscal year. The adopted budget includes only $70,000 in funding, as these amounts were not known at the time the budget was adopted. For the 2000/2001 fiscal year, staff recommends that the funds be used as follows: Continuation of Administrative Assistant Position. This position was created in 1997 to reduce the number of administrative tasks performed by sworn officers, allowing them more time in front line duties. The cost of this position for 2000/2001 is estimated to be $61,534. The budget adopted by the Council already includes SLES grant funding of this position. City's share of the High School Resource Officer position. The City's share of this position in 2000/2001 is estimated to be $71,189. This is an increase of $47,189 over the City's 1999/2000 share of $24,000. As indicated to the Council in the City Manager's budget message, these grant funds should be used to provide the city's contribution to this program, making available the previously committed general fund dollars for other items. Vehicle for HSRO Officer. During budget deliberations, the City Council set aside, but did not include in the budget, $16,000 to partially fund a new vehicle and related costs for the HSR Officer. This purchase is being delayed until MUSD commits its 40% share of this purchase. Staff recommends that the remaining SLES grant funds, estimated at $11,059, be set aside, but not budgeted, for the purchase of this vehicle. At the time the City Council approves the vehicle purchase, an appropriation of funds can be approved as well.
