BACKGROUND: The Florida Department of Transportation has offered to assist the Miami Beach Police Department in its Dill enforcement program. The Florida Department of Transportation has offered to provide $213,800.00 to the Miami Beach Police Department in the form ofa grant for a Dill enforcement project. The grant funds will allow the police department to fund two (2) new police officer positions, over and above the proposed authorized number of police officers in the budget for FY 96/97, two new (2) fully equipped patrol cars with specialized Dill enforcement equipment, such as in-car cameras and radar units, two (2) lap top computers with DUVTraffic software, a TV, VCR and stand and miscellaneous equipment for Dur checkpoints, The submission deadline for applications for these funds is September 13, 1996" and as the City Commission did not meet in August, it was necessary to submit the application and request the appropriate authorization retroactively. This grant requires no cash matching funds by the City. CONCLUSION: This grant will enable the Police Department to reduce the injuries and deaths in the City which result from persons who drive under the influence. DATE C-11:L q-l \-q~ JGPIRB/SDRlFC/MMS/rad AGENDA ITEM MIAMI BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT ADMINISTRA TION BUREAU TECHNICAL SERVICES DIVISION PLANNING UNIT TO: Major Steve Robbins Commander, Technical Services Division FROM: Michael Somberg DATE: January 30, 1996 SUBJECT: Grant Funding, Florida Department of Transportation I have been in communication with Mr, Roger Doherty, DUI Program Grants Manager for the Florida Department of Transportation Safety Office. This is the agency that provided funding for the DUI Task Force Grant we recently received. We have been in discussions for the purpose of determining if this department is eligible for additional grant funds from the Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) under the National Highway Safety Foundation (NHSF) "410" Program. "410" funds are block grants to the states and provide funding for Dill enforcement, prosecution and educational projects. In our state, these funds are administered by the Florida Department of Transportation. In awarding these funds, the principle criteria used are the number of Alcohol Related Accidents and the percentage of Alcohol Related accidents that occur as compared to the statewide average within the jurisdiction. In 1994, there were 298 Alcohol Related Accidents (up from 268 in 1993, an 11.1 % increase) in the city of Miami Beach. These accidents represented 14.23% of all accidents. The statewide average for Alcohol Related Accidents is 12.12%. As our percentage of Alcohol Related Accidents exceeds the statewide average, we meet the criteria for funding for DUI related projects. As we are eligible, we then discussed the types of things (positions, equipment, etc.) they would fund and the following is a synopsis: A. Two (2) new police officer positions. All salaries and benefits would be funded for three (3) years by the following formula: 1st year - 100% 2nd year - 75% 3rd year - 50% We must agree in writing to create two new positions to replace the officers we assign to the project (no supplantation). In this manner, we can receive grant monies to fund an experienced police officers' salaries and benefits. This translates into $58,955 for an officer with 5 years service as opposed to $39,275 for a newly hired officer. In terms of dollars, the city would receive approximately $266,000 for 3 years. MEMORANDUM Grant Funding, Florida Department of Transportation January 30, 1996 . Page 2 B. Two (2) new patrol vehicles equipped with all of the normal emergency equipment as well as any specialized Dill related equipment we wish to place in them. In terms of dollars, the city would receive approximately $58,000. C. Funds for Public Information and Educational Materials. The dollar benefits would be based on what materials we requested. D. Funds for other Dill related equipment. Again, the dollar benefits would be based on what equipment we requested. The city would be required to provide matching funds for the salaries and benefits only and then only in the second and third years. However this match could be in the form of in-kind services or a cash match. It is my recommendation that we send a proposal for a three (3) year grant that would include funding for 2 police officers, 2 police vehicles and equipment, 6-10 lap top computers for use by traffic officers, new breath testing equipment if needed and any other equipment that would further our Dill enforcement efforts. Ifwe are interested, we must submit our proposal as soon as possible so it can be included in the State Transportation Plan that is submitted to the Federal Department of Transportation for funding October 1, 1996. Please advise at your earliest convenience.

Project Summary: Briefly describe the problem and the proposed solution. D.U.I. is a serious problem in Miami Beach. The Miami Beach Police Department proposes to decrease injuries and deaths caused by D.U.I. impaired drivers with the Miami Beach D.U.I. Enforcement Project. Part II: PROJECT PLAN AND SUPPORTING DATA FORM ~5~1 SAFEn OGC ,09/94 State clearly and in detail the aims of the project, precisely what will be done, who will be involved, and what is expected to result. Use the following major headings: I, Statement of the Problem 2. Proposed Solution 3, Objectives 4. Evaluation 5. Milestones (Use fonn provided) Start below and use continuation pages as necessary. I, Statement of the Problem The City of Miami Beach is a seven square mile collection of natural barrier islands and man made residential islands located five miles east of the City of Miami and separated from it by Biscayne Bay, Access to the City is via a series of causeways and bridges traversing the various waterways which separate Miami Beach from the mainland. Miami Beach has a pennanent population which hovers around the 92,000, however, on any given day this figure may double or triple due to the tourist and local visitor influx, Currently, over 200 establishments, not including retail stores, groceries, etc. are licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages to the paying public. The City of Miami Beach has experienced a resurgence of the popular national image that it once enjoyed as the playground of America. This image, fostered through numerous national and international publications, portrays the City of Miami Beach, particularly the South Beach area or "SOBE", as the "Riviera of America". The party atmosphere coupled with the ready availability of alcohol and the necessity to drive one's own automobile makes this City a fertile environment for D.U!. and its related after effects ofD,U!. related accidents and fatalities. In 1995, Miami Beach suffered twenty (20) traffic fatalities of which 5 (25%) were D.UL related, In 1994, 852 DUI arrests were made by Miami Beach police officers. In 1995, 1,027 DUI arrests were made. This represents a 20.5% increase, Arrests are anticipated to increase. due to the large number of persons who drive under the influence. 1 FORM 500-Q6S~1 SAfETy OGC - 09/94 Statement of the problem (Continued) The following statistics reflect the seriousness of the n.u.1. problem in the city of Miami Beach 1994 # OF ALCOHOL 0/0 OF ALL STATEWIDE RELATED CRASHES CRASHES AVERAGE 298 14.23% 12.12% 268 13.50% 12.38% 222 13.72% 12.15% 268 13.72% 13.31% YEAR 1993 1992 1991 The Miami Beach Police Department's Traffic Enforcement/D.D.I. Dnit intends to accelerate , its on-going pro-active D. Dol enforcement program Through the dedication of equipment, resources and personnel specifically to D.U.I. related enforcement, coupled with an aggressive media campaign to educate the public, we hope to reduce Dill related crashes to at least the statewide average. Initially, we anticipate an increase in the number ofD.V.I. arrests due to our stepped up pro- active D. V.I. enforcement efforts but look forward to a decrease in these numbers due to increased public awareness. " 2 cORM 5OO.<l6S~1 SAFEry 0Gc ' 09/94 - 2. PROPOSED SOLUTION The Miami Beach Police Department's proposed it is a continuation of the two pronged approach began in 1995; education and enforcement Our plan includes the following: 1. Dedicate the two (2) D. V.I. enforcement officers and vehicles for use exclusively for D. U.I. enforcement in addition to the already dedicated resources, officers and vehicles. 2. Train the two (2) DUI enforcement officers and equip their vehicles with state of the art Video equipment for recording driving patterns as probable cause for a D.D.I. stop. 3. Equip their vehicles with all of the materials which the officer would need to have on hand to complete hislher investigation and arrests- minus the intoxilyzer. 4. Dedicate these (2) DUI enforcement officers exclusively to D.U.I. enforcement These officers would pro-actively seek out D.U.I. offenders as well as serve as the primary D.U.I. technician (s) to assist other officers in the field with their D.D.I. arrests. 5. Utilize the on-board video equipment to record accident scenes on -arrival to assist in accident reconstruction and D.D.I. prosecution. 6. Provide the necessary equipment, i.e. road warning signs, traffic cones, support equipment, etc. for use in frequent D.U.I. roadblocks. Currently, equipment of this nature has to be borrowed from other agencies necessitating costly and time consuming logistical negotiations. 3. OBJECTIVES - To increase the number ofD.D.I. arrests by 5%. - To conduct one (1) D.U.I. check point per month in Miami Beach. - To participate in (5) D.U.I. check points with other agencies. - To provided three (3) educational presentations per month to civic, social, educational groups. 3 ..
