SUMMARY a. The City of San Rafael is the county seat for Marin County and is located 17 miles north of San Francisco. The city encompasses 22 square miles and serves a population of 57,713 under a Council -Manager form of government. San Rafael has 10 elementary schools, 3 high schools and 1 University. According to the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce, the majority of people living in San Rafael are Caucasian, but 30% of the population is Hispanic or Latino decent. The median household income is $91,400 but there is a relatively low income area in the Canal Neighborhood and a substantial transient problem downtown. The San Rafael Police Department has 65 sworn and 23 non-swom employees serving under the direction of the Chief of Police. The Department is divided into two divisions: Patrol and Administrative Services. The Patrol Division is staffed with 50 sworn officers supervised by a Captain and includes Patrol, Traffic, SWAT, and Street Crimes Unit. The Administrative Services Division is staffed by 15 sworn officers and 23 non -sworn employees supervised a Captain and includes Investigations, Personnel and Training, Ranger/ Marine Auxiliary, Special Operations Unit, School Resource, Dispatch, Records, Property, Evidence and Youth Services Bureau. b. The San Rafael Police Department is requesting a total of $61,861 under this Grant Assistance Program. c. The San Rafael Police Department will use Grant funds to conduct enforcement at ABC -licensed establishments in San Rafael and neighboring cities. Enforcement will focus on problem premise locations with a high frequency of calls for service and past ABC violations. It will also focus on in-service and retail training. d. According to ABC statistics, the City of San Rafael currently has 157 on -sale and 64 off -sale licensed establishments. This includes numerous restaurants, convenience and liquor stores, along with bars and several nightclubs. The department will not be able to focus the necessary resources towards the enforcement of licensed establishments due to other priorities and funding shortages. 2. PROBLEM STATEMENT: Although San Rafael is an upper middle class community with a relatively low crime rate, many of the problems in the community revolve around the consumption of alcohol. Several problem premise locations drain police resources by requiring numerous responses to physical fights, arguments, assaults, drinking in public, urination, and noise complaints. In 2015 the San Rafael Police Department made 559 arrests for public intoxication. The rest of the county combined, including all 11 other jurisdictions, made 409 arrests. San Rafael by far has the largest problem with alcohol abuse within Marin County. The downtown area of San Rafael is the area where the majority of the disorderly conduct related calls for service occur. Out of the eight bars within the downtown area, the Spitfire Lounge, Trevor's Bar, West End Cafe and the Flat Iron continue to be the most problematic. The police department responded to 77 assault related calls for service at those four bars last year. According to the 2013-2014 California Healthy Kids Survey, 37% (or more than a third) of all San Rafael 11 th graders report having consumed alcohol in the last 30 days. That is higher than the statewide average of 33%. Exhibit A SCOPE OF WORK Of all San Rafael 11 th graders 22% (or more than 1 in 5) report binge drinking alcohol in the last 30 days (double the state average of 11%). Alcohol is easily obtainable by teens in Marin county and it is used in large quantities. In response to numerous incidents involving teenage drinking, the City of San Rafael passed a Social Host ordinance modeled after the one implemented by the County of Marin. This Social Host ordinance allows the department to obtain restitution for the time spent by officers investigating these cases. In February of 2014 to June of 2014, the San Rafael Police Department was awarded the Minor Decoy/ Shoulder Tap Grant Program by The Alcohol Beverage Control. The grant was very successful and we were able to conduct two Shoulder Tap operations, two Minor Decoy operations and one LEAD class. In 2013, the San Rafael Police Department was selected to team up with the Marin County Health and Human Services to participate in the Strategic Prevention Framework State Initiative Grant to reduce underage and excessive drinking in youth ages 12 — 25. The San Rafael Alcohol Compliance Team (SR ACT) was created through a partnership with the San Rafael Police Department and the Marin County Department of Health & Human Services. Through effective enforcement such as compliance checks at bars, restaurants, and special events, SR ACT helps ensure that San Rafael businesses and residents understand and uphold laws put in place to protect the health and safety of our community. From June of 2013 to February of 2016, the San Rafael Police Department conducted 24 Minor Decoy operations. During the Minor Decoy operations 50 citations were issued at San Rafael on and off site licensed businesses. Thirty six Bar Compliance Checks operations were conducted and eleven citations issued. Thirty Juvenile Parry Patrols were conducted where 31 parties were visited and 72 citations were issued. We also conducted 5 Responsible Beverage Service training, with 14 different businesses and 35 employees attended. In April of 2016, the ACT partnership will end and the San Rafael Police Department will no longer have the funding to continue these types of proactive operations. The San Rafael Police Department will have no choice to re -consider its priorities and will not be able to focus on special assignments, undercover operations and other investigative techniques that we used to use to educate and enforce alcohol related issues. 3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The San Rafael Police Department will coordinate a working task force involving ABC, code enforcement, local schools and the Marin County Health and Human Services. This task force will identify problem premise locations and implement a strategy that will involve enforcement as well as training/education with the establishments to help improve the quality of life of the citizens who live and visit the city of San Rafael. The San Rafael Police Department believes alcohol related problems need to be addressed utilizing a variety of proven strategies. These strategies include aggressive enforcement of violations associated with on -sale and off -sale establishments, education of ABC -licensed establishments to ensure compliance, and law enforcement training to increase the expertise in ABC law. Listed below are the approaches that we will like to take to keep our community safe. Exhibit A SCOPE OF WORK In -Service Training As part of this multi -agency model, in-service training will be provided to all patrol officers of the participating agencies. These training will be conducted at the beginning of every month starting in Augusts of 2016 and ending in May of 2017. The training will be conducted at the beginning of the patrol shifts' briefing in 15 minute blocks. The topics covered will be Business and Profession codes that will be useful to patrol officers, resources that are available to assist in investigations such as Teenage Party Prevention, Enforcement and Dispersal (T.A.P.P.E.D) and Target Responsibility For Alcohol Connected Emergencies (T.R.A.C.E). Objectives: Conduct 40 briefing trainings for all 4 patrol teams. (One training, per month, per patrol team). Minor Decoy, Trap Door & Shoulder Tap Operations: Based on prior Minor Decoy operations, we are aware that those operations are an effective way to reduce access to alcohol by our youth and to make sure that stores are complying with the law by checking identification used by people purchasing alcohol. The San Rafael Police Department has never conducted a Trap Door type of operation but look forward to working with ABC in conducting these operations at local bars and nightclubs. In addition, we have found that most adults who purchase alcohol for our youth are homeless persons who loiter in front of liquor stores. These Shoulder Tap operations have been successful during a prior grant and we want to continue to test our liquor establishments in the future. Additional enforcement will be conducted in conjunction with special events and juvenile related activities. Objectives: Conduct at least 8 Minor Decoy operations. Conduct at least 8 Shoulder Tap operations. Conduct at least 8 TRAP Door operations IMPACT and LEAD training The San Rafael Police Department recognizes the importance of educating and training the local on and off site licensees'. There are limited resources within the department and the need to educate these establishments is paramount in order to succeed in preventing and detouring crimes related to alcohol abuse. Objectives: Conduct at least 8 IMPACT operations Conduct at least 2 LEAD trainings. Undercover Enforcement Undercover enforcement will be conducted at problem premises in the cities of San Rafael and other allied agencies in Marin County. Officers from these agencies will conduct operations in cooperation with the Santa Rosa district office of ABC. The focus of the enforcement will include: over -serving of intoxicated patrons and underage drinking in bars; narcotics sales and usage by bar staff and Exhibit A SCOPE OF WORK patrons. Use of officers from the respective agencies will improve the success rate of operations as officers will not be recognized by bar staff in this jurisdiction. Objective: Conduct at least 5 undercover operations at problem premise locations. The focus of the operations will be to identify and locate subjects who are engaging in illegal activity in and around bars and nightclubs in San Rafael. General enforcement in the area of ABC -licensed establishments will include officers in uniform and plain clothes. Additional enforcement will be conducted to coincide with downtown special events which bring a large influx of people into the area. These events include the Farmers Market, May Madness Car Parade and Show, and the Italian Street Painting Festival. Enforcement will also be coordinated with school special events such as dances and end of the year events. These school -related patrols will focus on minors consuming alcoholic beverages and issues related to the Social Host ordinance. Increase Communication within the Community The San Rafael Police Department is committed to working with and enhancing the quality of life for our residents and our local businesses in problem solving partnership with our community. We recognize the need for the public to understand what we are doing and what types of enforcement are taking place. Issuing a press release is one of the best ways to reach the community, educate them and detour crime from happening. We will also use our Facebook and Twitter account, which has over 9000 followers, to disseminate this information. Objective: Issue press releases after each operation to the local media. I will also leave contact information for the supervising officer to respond to any questions that arise from the community to promote active and educational dialogue. OVERALL GRANT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: The San Rafael Police Department has identified the following goals and objectives as the priorities for this Grant Assistance Project: 1. Conduct monthly briefing training in 15 -minute blocks with each Patrol Team beginning in August 2016 and continuing through May 2017. 2.
