File Number: <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br />BY: <br />City of San Leandro <br />Meeting Date: November 17, 2014 <br />111251151 <br />City Council <br />Chris Zapata <br />City Manager <br />Chris Zapata <br />City Manager and <br />Sandra Spagnoli <br />Chief of Police <br />Staff Report <br />Agenda Section: ACTION ITEMS <br />Agenda Number: 10.A. <br />FINANCE REVIEW: David Baum <br />Finance Director <br />TITLE: Staff Report for Discussion and Direction to Staff on Community Oriented <br />Policing Services (COPS) Grant <br />���1Jil►�i/_1:�'/_V 1�7:7Xd�]►�ild�l�►1�7_��[�7��� <br />Staff recommends that the City Council review and approve the proposed Community <br />Oriented Policing Services (COPS) federal grant shared funding proposal outlined below. <br />BACKGROUND <br />On January 6, 2014 the City Council authorized a list of projects for which federal funding <br />opportunities were to be pursued in 2014. Among that list of proposals was a request for <br />additional federal funding through the United States Department of Justice - COPS program. <br />Based upon that direction, City staff and members of the City Council worked collaboratively <br />with the offices of Senator Dianne Feinstein, Senator Barbara Boxer, and Congresswoman <br />Barbara Lee, as well as the City's federal advocate Len Simon, the San Leandro Unified <br />School District and the COPS Office to submit an application for a four-year, $500,000 grant <br />to fund 4.0 FTE School Resource Officer positions. To facilitate this process and ensure a <br />quality application, the City also retained the services of a professional grant writer. The <br />application was ultimately successful with San Leandro being one of only a small number of <br />California cities awarded funding. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On June 20, 2014 the San Leandro Police Department submitted a COPS grant application to <br />secure a $500,000 grant to hire 4.0 FTE School Resource Officers. The decision to file this <br />application was brought before the City Council in May, 2014 and approved for submission. <br />Prior to submitting the application, City staff met with officials from the San Leandro Unified <br />School District. During those discussions a partnership developed, and the School District <br />agreed to fund any balance that was not covered by the COPS grant. <br />City of San Leandro Page 1 Printed on 11113/2014 <br />
