DISCUSSION
The State of California provides grant funding to State law enforcement agencies through the
Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund (SLESF). The grant requires that funding be
allocated to counties and cities in accordance with specific requirements for front-line law
enforcement services. Front line law enforcement typically includes community oriented policing
projects and special law enforcement activities that require use of additional police officers in
specially targeted saturation areas. Total funding allocation is based on annual estimated
population figures for respective counties and cities.
During FY 2011-12 the City received $255,328 of SLESF funding and approval of this
appropriation adjustment will provide for additional overtime resources to assist with our front-line
law enforcement efforts.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the appropriation with the acceptance of SLESF funds in the City's Police Grants
Revenue Account (account no. 12814002-52026) in the amount of $255,328, will increase the
same into the Police Department Grant expenditure overtime account (account no. 12814407-
61040).
