Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: California Government Code Section 30029.05 establishes extended funding in the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Growth Special Account and thereafter in each county treasury for the purpose of the Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) Growth Program and requires monies from this fund to be distributed amongst the cities within each county in accordance with the relative population of each incorporated city. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2017/18 growth allocation for the City of Sacramento is $367,710.
Policy Considerations: The recommendations contained in this report are consistent with City Council Resolution 2018-0235, which requires City Council approval to establish an operating grant and adjust budgets of $100,000 or more.
Economic Impacts: None
Environmental Considerations: Not applicable.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): This funding is exempt from the CEQA process as it will not cause a direct or indirect physical change in the environment and therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines, Sections 15061(b)(3), 15378(b)(2) and 21065(b).
Sustainability: Not applicable
Commission/Committee Action: Not applicable
Rationale for Recommendation: COPS Growth Program funding is distributed in accordance with the above referenced sections of the California Government Code. Use of the funds is restricted to those activities which directly support frontline municipal police services. These funds will be utilized to support PD’s specialized unit, Air Operations.
Financial Considerations: This funding does not require additional resources from the City’s General Fund. Funds must be used to supplement, not supplant, existing resources.
Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Purchases with this funding will be made in accordance with the City’s LBE program, when applicable.
