This program is offered by OTS through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Police Department has been awarded $7,607 in funding to be used for overtime activity in conjunction with a Next Generation CIOT seatbelt enforcement campaign. This is a 100% reimbursement grant in which all of the enforcement activity is completed on an overtime basis. There are no match requirements. BACKGROUND The goal of the Next Generation - CIOT program is to increase seat belt use statewide to a 96% by September 30, 2010. The goal is accomplished through the combined efforts of the California Highway Patrol (CHP), OTS and local law enforcement. The strategy of the 2009-2010 CIOT Next Generation is to focus on public information and enforcement on persons who fail to use seat belts. The project performance period for this grant is October 1, 2009 to September 8, 2010. The PD will be required to conduct in-house training for those officers who will be involved, conduct a pre and post operational surveys, and conduct a seat belt enforcement campaign. The campaign will consist of 11 seat belt enforcements. The allotted funding will pay for the overtime activity. lwc-Eivniy OCT 2 6 2009 RECOMMENDATION Based on the available funding, I request the City consider participation in the CIOT grant program again. Participation in the CIOT grant will allow the police department to continue its efforts in the reduction of seat belt related injury traffic collisions. With additional funding obtained through the approval of this grant, we will be able to utilize patrol personnel to enhance our ability to continue attacking these problems through education and enforcement. The City has previously participated in OTS grants specific to DUI enforcement and CIOT programs. The following is a list of grants that the PD has previously participated in: • OTS Grant, Resolution # 7640 • OTS Grant, Resolution # 8580 • OTS Click It or Ticket Grant, Resolution #9270 • OTS Click It or Ticket Grant, Resolution #9576 FISCAL IMPACT The City will need to pay 100% of the overtime costs up front. However, the overtime costs will be reimbursed by OTS following submission of overtime claims. Finance Director Rory Burnett has reviewed the grant program and concluded that there is no fiscal impact of this grant to the City of Vernon. CONCLUSION If the City approves participation in this program, the attached grant contract agreement must be reviewed and processed by City staff. The City Attorney's office has reviewed the agreement and has approved it as to form. Although the grant agreement due date was scheduled for October 15, 2009, we have already advised our grant coordinator, Irene Kan, that we were not given sufficient time to complete the agreement process. Ms. Kan advised to continue with our agreement review process and submit the completed agreement as soon as practical. Upon execution of the agreement, please forward it to me and I will coordinate the return of the agreements. Attached is a copy of the CIOT agreement, a copy of the City Attorney's office agreement approval, and a copy of the CIOT approval letter. .
