BACKGROUND State Assembly Bill 3229 signed by the governor on July 12th, 1996 added section 30061 of the Government Code establishing a statewide fund for allocation to local police agencies, referred to as the Citizens' Options for Public Safety Program. As required by the bill, the County of Alameda has established a Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund and has established a committee to oversee and review the annual expenditures by local agencies from this fund. The funds are allocated to our City based on population. For COPS Year 20, the City of Pleasanton has received an allocation of$134,584. Recommended Expenditures: The Police Department recommends expenditures for COPS Year 20 be encumbered for expenditures which support front line law enforcement functions and serve to enhance public safety. This allocation will be utilized as follows: • continue to maintain PredPol predictive policing software e develop practical technology driven solutions for department equipment management with the purchase of an electronic key control box, and keyed lockers • improve officer safety with the purchase of critical response kits • and enhance communication and Public Records Act compliance with the purchase of social media archiving services. As in prior years, input was solicited from members of the Police Department and submissions were reviewed by the department's Command Staff in the context of achieving these goals and initiatives. The sum total of COPS Year 20 funding is approximately $146,075 which includes received funding, a roll-over sum from COPS Year 19, and earned interest.
