MIAMI BEACH
OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Matti Herrera Bower and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Kathie G. Brooks, Interim City Manager
DATE: July 27, 2012
SUBJECT: Proposed FY 2012/2013 Police Department Enhancements
This memorandum is in response to requests made at the July 25, 2012, Finance and
Citywide Projects Committee meeting (FCWPC) by Commissioner Libbin and Commission
Aides Commissioners Tobin and Wolfson regarding the supporting financial documentation
pertaining to the proposed FY 2012/2013 Police Department enhancements. Upon further
review with the Police Department, we have refined these estimates to include a correction
to the Internal Affairs Enhancement and the exclusion of new vehicles, fuel and
maintenance and depreciation costs for the additional Police Department union positions•
being proposed (these costs will not impact the FY.2012/2013 budget since the additional
Police Department union positions will not be eligible to be issued a . vehicle until the
successful completion of his /her probationary period). Please note that the vehicle costs will
impact subsequent years. These longer -term cost impacts associated with the issuance of
vehicles are now reflected in the attached spreadsheet.
Based upon the aforementioned revisions, the new total for the FY 2012/2013 proposed
Police Department enhancements is $1,310,000.
If you need clarification on any of these items, please feel free to contact me.
C: Mayor Matti Herrera_Bower and City Commissioners

Police Department
Proposed Enhancements for FY12/13
1 a&b. INTERNAL AFFAIRS REORGANIZATION
The purpose of this reorganization is to enhance the level, quality and integrity of Internal Affairs Investigations. A Sergeant has already been assigned to the FBI. 1 Sergeant will be
assigned to the Crime Suppression Team for the Entertainment District and 2 will be dedicated to Crime Investigations. These enhancements would be offset by the elimination of 1
Public Safety Specialist, l Lieutenant underfilling a vacant Major position (through attrition) and 1 Sergeant (through attrition), as well as a $79,000 reduction in overtime. Due to the
reorganization process, there is currently 1 Lieutenant under filling a vacant Major position. Once this Lieutenant overage is eliminated through attrition, the Major position would be
eliminated (7 months of savings in FY 2012113).

2. Add 2 ATV Police Officers in the North Area working 2200 hours to 0800 hours (10pm to 8am) to implement and enforce the Beach Closure.
Justification: In combination with proposed beach access control gates, additional ATV officers will provide police presence on the beach, which is the City's most popular destination for residents and
tourists. Additional police presence will help eliminate much of the beach thefts, robberies and other violent crimes that have occurred over time. This will in turn help reduce the Citys crime rate,
particularly in the category of larcenies. Larcenies have been the biggest driver in the Citys crime rate in recent years. Comparing January to June 2011 to the same period in 2012, beach thefts have
increased from 360 to 404, or approximately a 12% increase.

6. RECORDS UNIT ENHANCEMENT- With the increased automation achieved through the implementation of CAD -RMS /New Word, it was expected that less personnel resources would be required in
the Records Unit. However, the Records Unit has seen an increase of public records requests, which have caused an increase in overtime costs in the unit. With the implementation of AVL in Police
vehicles, it is expected that public records requests will continue to increase, as has been experienced in other agencies that have implemented AVL. It is expected that an additional Records
Technician and Data Entry Clerk will reduce the need for overtime in the unit b $80,000.
