AGENDA ITEM: Authorization to Apply for COPS Grant Application
DATE: April 28, 2011
SUBMITTED BY: David E. Thompson, Asst. City Manager
BACKGROUND:
The U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services has
announced that they will be accepting grant applications during the month of May 2011.
This is a competitive grant program that provides funding for police agencies. The
program will provide 100% of the funding for approved entry -level salaries and benefits
for three (3) years, and it does not require a match from the City. After the termination of
the grant period, the City must commit to maintaining the positions for another twelve
(12) months.
In the past, COPS funding has been restricted to newly hired, entry level positions.
However, the new application process allows law enforcement agencies to apply for
funding for sworn positions that are scheduled to be eliminated due to local budget cuts.
Based on current budget projections for 2011 -12, staff recommends applying for the
funding for two (2) law enforcement positions to be effective 2011 through 2014. Based
on present salaries and benefits, this will be approximately $126,802 annually or
$380,406 for the three (3) year grant period.
BUDGET: If the grant request is funded, then it will add approximately $380,406 to the
Police Department budget over the next three (3) years. It will also obligate the Police
Department to keep those positions for at least twelve (12) months after the termination
of the grant.
RECOMMENDATIONS: To authorize the Assistant City Manager to submit a COPS
grant application for up to two (2) law enforcement positions for a three (3) year period,
and to authorize the Assistant City Manager and the Mayor to sign the application and
subsequent documents related to this grant program.
ATTACHMENTS: Letter from the U.S. Department of Justice announcing the COPS
grant application schedule.
