If the item you wish to speak on is a public hearing item, you may wish to wait until the Council considers that item. ANNOUNCEMENT — The City of Tustin is hosting a remembrance service for 9/11 on Tuesday, September 11, at 5:30 p.m at Cedar Grove Park, 11385 Pioneer Road. The program will consist of words of reflection, honor guard, and other tributes. The public is invited. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM A public hearing provides individuals the opportunity to be heard regarding an intended action of the City Council related to land use or fees. (Agenda Item 1) 1. SUPPLEMENTAL LAW ENFORCEMENT SERVICES FUND (SLESF) In 1996, AB 3229 established the Citizen's Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant program. Proceeds from the program can only be used for front line law enforcement services that may include the purchase of new equipment, hiring of additional personnel and increasing the opportunity for training of safety personnel. For FY 2012 -13, we have been notified that the Police Department is estimated to receive $100,000 in SLESF funding. The allocation for SLESF /COPS grant funds for all law enforcement agencies is being coordinated through the Orange County Sheriffs Department. All agencies have been directed to move forward with expenditure authorization while waiting for the final grant amounts to be determined. The Police Department is proposing that this year's allocation be used to staff the Crime Analyst position for a seventh consecutive year. Money remaining after funding this position, if any, will be applied to crime analysis software licensing and upgrades. In addition, there is carry-over money from the last two fiscal years. It is recommended that the money be used to purchase a mobile license plate recognition system. This bill requires both a public hearing and a special fund established for these monies. City Council /Successor Agency/ September 4, 2012 Housing Authority Regular Meeting Agenda Page 3 of 10 Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Open and close a Public Hearing; 2. Authorize usage of the funds as recommended by the Police Department; 3. Authorize the Chief of Police to sign all documents related to SLESF program. 4. Appropriate from unappropriated reserves of the Supplemental law Enforcement Services Fund (Fund 136) in the amount of $25,000 for the acquisition of the mobile license plate recognition system. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEMS All matters listed under the Consent Calendar are considered to be routine and will be enacted by one motion without discussion. Persons wishing to speak regarding Consent Calendar matters should file a "Request to Speak" form with the City Clerk. (Agenda Items 2 through 15) 2.
