Please provide detailed answers to the following questions as part of the Problem Statement:
1. Describe current traffic unit complement(number of personnel and classifications). If applicable,
describe how the size of the traffic unit has fluctuated in the past five years and why.
The City of Palm Springs is an international destination resort community with an international airport and
an estimated 2.5 million visitors each year. Our census population varies between 43,500 full-time
residents, an additional 22,000 seasonal winter residents, to over 100,000 persons staying in the city on a
holiday winter weekend. We have a historical problem with impaired drivers who are involved in traffic
collisions. An estimated 67% of our fatalitiy collisions involve a driver who was impaired. Many of these
DUI collisions occur after impaired drivers leave the downtown entertainment district area. These
collisions occur at all hours of the day, but are most frequent during late evenings or early mornings just
after bar closing time.
Our data indicates that 41% of the drivers involved in injury or fatal alcohol related collisions were
unlicensed, many of which were as a result of a previous alcohol related offense.
21% (previous year was 28%) of the DUI arrests made in this period.were made as a result of responding to
traffic collision.
2. How many sobriety checkpoints did your department conduct between October 1,2008 and
September 30, 2009? (Include checkpoints from all funding sources, i.e. OTS grants or mini-grants,
and department funded)
OTS Grant#: AL 1021; # of Checkpoints: 4 (Not AVOID)

Additional Information: We sent officers to participated in two Avoid the 30 checkpoints in Ira Quinta, one
more in Desert Hot Springs, and deployed five separate times on Avoid the 30 saturation patrols in Palm
Springs.
3. What is the average number of DUI arrests and vehicles impounded per checkpoint?
4
4. Does your agency participate in an AVOID DUI program? Yes
a. AVOID the 30 DUI Campaign in Riverside County
5. What percent of your DUI arrests between October 1,2008 and September 30, 2009 were made as a
result of a collision?
21 percent.
6. What percent of your collisions involve drivers with a suspended or revoked license?
41 percent.
7. What is the magnitude of your city's problem concerning repeat DUI offenders who violate probation
or fail to appear in court? Do you currently have a program that proactively addresses this issue?
We have about a 20 percent failure to appear rate for DUI arrests. We add these subjects to our warrant
swecp list each quarter. They are usually the first to come back to jail. Violation of DUI probation is non-
existant due to the terms and unsupervised structure of DUI probation.
8. Do you have a backlog of unserved warrants for repeat DUI offenders?
We have an estimated 300 outstanding DUI wanted suspects in Palm Springs. We conducted quarterly
warrant sweep to locate and apprehend these subjects.
9. How many of your traffic officers have received Standardized Field Sobriety Testing(SFST)
training?
Our entire Traffic Unit staff of seven officers has received extensive SFST training. We have one of only
two Drug Recognition Expert in the Coachella Valley. An additional 25% of our total compliment of 96
officers has received this valuable training.
10. What is your current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days and how
much of the fee goes to the General Fund vs. a special Traffic Offender Impound Account? How is it
used?
We have a $125,00 VTACR fee that is charged to the owner of a stored vehicle. The funding goes directly
into the general funds and is used to fund another Police Services Officer who handles vehicle storage
releases and paperwork.

Please provide detailed answers to the following questions as part of the Problem Statement:
1. Describe the traffic safety problem(s) to be addressed, include:
• What percent of your collisions involve drivers with a suspended or revoked license or drivers who have
never been issued a license?
• What percent of your total DUl arrests between October 1, 2007, and September 30, 2008, were made as
a result of a collision?
The City of Pahn Springs is an international destination resort community with an international airport and
an estimated 2.5 million visitors each year- Our census population varies between 43,500 full-time
residents, an additional 22,000 seasonal winter residents, to over 100,000 persons staying in the city on a
holiday winter weekend. We have a historical problem with impaired drivers who are involved in traffic
collisions. An estimated 85% of our fatalitiy collisions involve a driver who was impaired. Many of these
DUI collisions occur after unpaired drivers leave the downtown entertainment district area. These
collisions occur at all hours of the day, but are most liequent during late evenings or early mornings just
after bar closing time.
Our data indicates that 45% of the drivers involved in injury or fatal alcohol related collisions were
unlicensed, many of which were as a result of a previous alcohol related offense.
28% (previous year was 39%) of the DUI arrests made in this period were made as a result of responding to
traffic collision.
2. How many sobriety checkpoints did your department conduct between October 1,2007 and
September 30, 2008? (Include checkpoints from all funding sources, i.e. OTS grants or mini-grants,
and department funded)

3. What is the average number of DUI arrests and vehicles impounded per checkpoint?
Five DUI arrests and 19 vehicles stored for 30-days.
4. Does your agency participate in an AVOID DUf program? Yes, we are the 2008-2011 Region Four
coordinators for the Riverside County OTS funded Avoid the 30 Program.
• AVOID the 30 DUI Campaign in Riverside County
5. What is the magnitude of your city's problem concerning repeat DUI offenders who violate
probation or fail to appear in court? Do you currently have a program that proactively addresses
this issue?
There is an estimated 49% failure to appear in court rate for arrested DUI offenders. We currently have a
DUI offender warrant sweep scheduled every three months as part of the current OTS DUI grant program.
All warrant sweeps are conducted on Friday evenings so as to make the biggest impact and to keep these
offenders off of the streets at least during the subsequent weekend. Many of these wanted persons are
repeat DUI offenders and are remanded into custody to begin serving time jail time for their crimes. We
also provide uniformed officers with a monthly "Worst of the Worst" hoilist of habitual DUI offenders.
6. Do you have a backlog of unserved warrants for repeat DUI offenders?
Yes, we currently have 290 unserved local /active DUI warrants for DUI offenders who failed to appear in
court for a previous DUI arrest_ We are currently developing a database of vehicle license plates owned by
these wanted DUI offenders to input into our ALPR units in a effort to use this OTS funded state-of-the-art
technology to assist us in locating these wanted persons.
7. How many of your traffic officers have received Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST)
training?
All six traffic officers, including myself, have received SFST training. Approximately 24% of our entire
uniformed patrol force has received SFST. We will continue to send more officers to this valuable training
course.
8. What is your current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days and how
much of the fee goes to the General Fund vs. a special Traffic Offender account? How is it used?
We have a$125.00 VTACR fee that is charged to the owner ol'a stored vehicle. The VTACR fee for 30-
day impound is $275.00 per vehicle. The funding goes directly into the general funds and is used to fund

way in which we analyzed, review, and disseminated our collision and citation data_ A key component of the
TSE recomniendation was that we get real-time data to be able to properly deploy our personnel resources at
problem locations at the correct times that collisions are occurring, and to be able to truly analyze the causes
of these collisions. The TSE stated that we should "develop goals, and monitor enforcement efforts." This
cannot be done without updating the current report management system(RMS) which is geared more for
crime related incidents with traffic collision data analyzation being secondary. It doesn't currently contain the
information queries that are required to accurately evaluate our collision index. The RMS system doesn't
have a method to determine many of the primary collision factors which is absolutely essential in taking
proactive rneasures to reduce the frequency of many types of collisions. The TSE recommended that we
"update our existing RMS and acquire a third party software solution specific to traffic information with the
goal of obtaining detailed information that is essential to traffic goal setting and supervision." It is our goal
that with this funding we will be able to do just what the TSE advised us to do. We will update Alliance
RMS to interface with CRS, and acquire a third party traffic reporting software system to accurately track our
collision index and citation enforcement overlay. Also, currently citation enforcement locations are database
entered 6-8 weeks after the actual issued date. With the requested new system this citation data entry would
be done daily.
Additionally, an in-house audit conducted this year by the PSPD Traffic Unit and the City of Palm Springs
Traffic Management Department revealed that current methods allow for as much as a 30% variance in
collision data between the two departments. My review of the previously reported 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006
data which was logged into the SWITRS database reflects a similar variance error. This indicates that data
which was sent to CHP for the SWITRS database is actually substantially under reported. Beginning m
March 2006, we began keeping an Excel Spreadsheet log of the actual collision index. We learned that year
2006, and 2007 may indicate increases in some collision index area. These increases were not accurate as
they were compared to the previous years of data which was substantially under reported. Accuracy in data to
determine our performance is essential in evaluating our efforts in addressing our collision problem in Palm
Springs.
The requested Crossroads Software and Citation Package (CRS) components are necessary for traffic
problem identification, and will allow PSPD supervision, patrol, Traffic Unit officers, and Traffic
Management staff access to daily "real-time" data related to all aspects of traffic collisions and our
enforcement profiles. We can take a "Data Driven Approach" to traffic collision prevention and enforcement
operations in collaboration with our existing department COMSTAT deployment philosophy to crime
prevention. By joining these two methods, we believe that we will see a more targeted deployment of our
uniformed personnel and see a reduction in the collision index with a by-product of a reduction in the crime
index as well. Our action plan will be more focused. CRS will help us keep better track of our enforcement
efforts. It will aid our officers in more accurate documentation of collisions, and refine our enforcement
deployment strategies. We would overlay our field resources based on accurate "real-time" crime and
collision data. CRS will help us identify abnormal collision trends. It will help us identify and evaluate mid-
block collision frequency and causes. it will eliminate the collision location reporting errors that are currently

occurring due to inaccurate street name entries in collision reports. CRS has a built-in "error check" that is
used prior to submitting the collision report for approval. This will reduce reporting errors and increase
officer productivity. CRS will eliminate the common report writing and PCP errors that are found during
collision report audits. It will reduce data input redundancy and add efficiency in current database entry
procedures thus allowing our officers more time to conduct proactive traffic enforcement activities. CRS will
allow PSPD to assure that we route "accurate" collision data to our Traffic Management Department, and
CHP / S WITRS in a timelier manner. It will also aid us in completing the required quarterly and annual OTS
at reports as CRS software quickly and easily recovers the exact formatted report data that is required by
OTS.
An additional goal is to be able "without error" more effectively conununicate with our city Traffic
Management staff. They are already using an outdated (17 years old)but very effective version of CRS_
Providuig this funding would allow us to do so. CRS is well established company and leader in California
traffic collision solutions currently utilized by numerous other law enforcement agencies. CRS is a OIS
based collision and citation analysis prograin which will allow us to geo-code collisions and conserve
resources while at the same time provide timely, accurate, and useable information. Data sharing and
accurate collision information is absolutely essential in allowing our police and traffic management
supervisory staff the ability to properly manage and deploy our limited field personnel and financial
resources.
DUI Trailer- 1 fully equipped DUI trailer(s) will be purchased for use at DUI checkpoints. Costs may
include the trailer, sales tax, delivery, installation costs, and other modifications and accessories or other
items necessary to make the trailer usable for grant purposes, such as lighting, paint and graphics.

To reduce the persons killed and injured in alcohol involved crashes, "best practice" strategies will be conducted
on an overtime basis. The funded strategies include DUI/Driver's License checkpoints and DUI saturation
patrols. This program will also develop a "Hot Sheet" program and conduct "Stakeout" operations for officers to
concentrate on repeat DUI offenders on probation who have had their licenses suspended or revoked. Through
warrant service details, the police department will target repeat DUI violators who failed to appear in court or
violate probation. These strategies are designed to earn media attention thus enhancing the overall deterrent
effect.

Please provide detailed answers to the following questions as part of the Problem Statement:
1. Describe the traffic safety problem(s) to be addressed, include:
• What percent of your collisions involve drivers with suspended or revoked license or drivers who have
never been issued a license?
• What percent of your total DUT arrests between October 1, 2005, and September 30, 2006, were made at
the scene of a collision?
Our DUT collision problem continues to grow as the population to the Coachella Valley and tourism to the
City of Palm Springs increases. Unfortuntaely, the City of Palm Springs also continues to rate very poorly in
several of the Office of Traffic Safety collision ranking categories. In 2004, and 2005 we were were ranked
"number one" in overall collision composite. In 2004, we ranked 2 of 99 , and in 2005 we ranked 3 of 96 in
total fatal and injury collisions" In 2004, we ranked 1 of 99, and in 2005, we ranked 1 of 96 in alcohol
related collisions. We need to agressively address the primary causes of our injury collisions and improve
our status on the OTS rankings scale.
During the 2006 base year time frame our Department made 198 DUI arrests, 120 or 61 % of these arrests
were as a result of a collision investigation response. 78 DUI arrests or 31%were made as a result of
proactive enforcement efforts. Our officers were were very proactive in the later part of this term. There
were a total of 331 DUT arrests" 119 arrests or 36% were as a result of a traffic collision and 212 or 64% of
the arrests were as a result of proactive efforts. Over 60% of the drivers involved in these above collisions
were driving on a suspended or revoked CDL.
We continue to work hard toward finding these DUI drivers prior to the collision incident and emergency
response.
2. How many sobriety checkpoints did your department conduct between October 1, 2005 and
OTS-38b DUI Overtime

GRANT DESCRIPTION Page 2
September 30, 2006? (Include checkpoints from all funding sources, i.e. OTS grants or mini-grants, and
department funded)
On 10/08/05, we conducted a DUI/CDL checkpoint that resulted in no drivers being arrested for DT 1f, 9
vehicles were towed for 30 days, and 10 citations being issued. On 03 18-06, we conducted a DUI/ CDL
checkpoint that resulted in 10 drivers being arrested for DUI, 17 vehicles towed for 30 days, and 39 citations
being issued. On 07-29-06, we conducted a DUI/ CDL checkpoint that resulted in 4 drivers being arrested
for DUI, 22 vehicles towed for 30 days, and 35 citations being issued.
3. What is the average number of DUI arrests and vehicles impounded per checkpoint?
An average of five (5) DUI arrests and 16 vehicles are towed at each checkpoint. (We also issue an average
of 28 citations per checkpoint.)
4. What is the magnitude of your city's problem concerning repeat DUI offenders who violate probation or
fail to appear in court? Do you currently have a program that proactively addresses this issue?
In January 2006,we conducted a warrant databank search for DUI offenders that were arrested by Palm
Springs Police that have active warrants for DUI offenses committed in our city. At that time,there were
324 offenders with active DUI warrants. We tried serving several of these warrants and had limited success.
We are seeking information from allied agencies to develop a court sting program for DUI drivers who
continue to drive on suspended or revoked CDL's. Also, there is currently no mechanism in place with the
Probation Department to address the need to closely monitor repeat DUI offenders.
5. Do you have a backlog of uoserved warrants for repeat DUI offenders?
Yes, over 300 active DUI warrants
6. How many of your traffic officers have received Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST)training?
22 officers or 24% of our officers have attended the required SFST training
7. What is your current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days and how much
of the fee goes to the General Fund vs. a special Traffic Offender account?How is it used?
There is currently a$75.00 administrative fee that returns to the General Fund. Beginning in late 2007, we
have renegotiated a flat rate annual franchise fee of$25,000 from each of the four participating tow agencies
to pay each year in lieu of the per car fees. This money is used to fund another clerical position in the
Department to keep up with the increasing trafic related documentation.

6. To conduct 4 DUI/DL checkpoints by September 30, 2008,
Note: For combination DUI/DL checkpoints, departments must issue press releases that mention
DL's will be checked at the DUI/DL checkpoint. Also, according to the Attorney General's Office
all DUI/DL checkpoint operations must have signs reading "DUI/Driver's License Checkpoint

OTS approval.
To maximize effectiveness, it may be necessary to conduct a checkpoint operation at more than one
location on any given day/night. Each checkpoint should be highly publicized and visible. No
occupant restraint citations will be issued at the checkpoints. `OTS does not fund or support
independent DL checkpoints. Checkpoint operations should not commence prior to 1800 hours

warrant services,the DUI checkpoints, and the saturation patrols that are planned during this funding
period, we believe that the personnel funding allocations are better used for more saturation patrols. We
have been highly effective during the last year in locating repeat known"worst of the worst"offenders
while actively patrolling for other impaired drivers in the city areas of the known DUI violations.
11. To conduct 0 "Court Sting" operations to cite individuals driving from court after having their license

Please provide detailed answers to the following questions as part of the Problem Statement:
1. Describe the traffic safety problem(s) to be addressed, include:
• What percent of your collisions involve drivers with suspended or revoked license or drivers who have
never been issued a license?
• What percent of your total DU1 arrests between October 1, 2005, and September 30, 2006, were made at
the scene of a collision?
Our DUI collision problem continues to grow as the population to the Coachella Valley and tourism to the
City of Palm Springs increases. Unfortuntaely, the City of Palm Springs also continues to rate very poorly in
several of the Office of Traffic Safety collision ranking categories. In 2004, and 2005 we were were ranked
"number one" in overall collision composite. In 2004, we ranked 2 of 99 , and in 2005 we ranked 3 of 96 in
total fatal and injury collisions- In 2004, we ranked 1 of 99, and in 2005, we ranked 1 of 96 in alcohol
related collisions- We need to agressively address the primary causes of our injury collisions and improve
Our status on the OTS rankings scale.
During the 2006 base year time frame our Department made 198 DUT an-ests, 120 or 61 % of these arrests
were as a result of a collision investigation response. 78 DUT arrests or 31% were made as a result of
proactive enforcement efforts. Our officers were were very proactive in the later part of this tern. There
were a total of 331 DUI arrests. 119 arrests or 36%u were as a result of a traffic collision and 212 or 64% of
the arrests were as a result of proactive efforts- Over 60% or the drivers involved in these above collisions
were driving on a suspended or revoked CDL.
We continue to-work hard toward finding these DUT drivers prior to the collision incident and emergency
response.
2. How many sobriety checkpoints did your department conduct between October 1, 2005 and

GIANT DESCRIPTION Page 2
September 30, 2006? (include checkpoints from all funding sources, i.e. OTS grants or mini-grants, and
department funded)
On 10/08/05, we conducted a DUI/ CDL checkpoint that resulted in no drivers being arrested for DUI, 9
vehicles were towed for 30 days, and 10 citations being issued. On 03-18-06, we conducted a DUI/ CDT-.
checkpoint that resulted in 10 drivers being arrested for DUI, 17 vehicles towed for 30 days, and 39 citations
being issued. On 07-29-06, we conducted a DUI/ CDL checkpoint that resulted in 4 drivers being arrested
for DUI, 22 vehicles towed for 30 days, and 35 citations being issued-
3. What is the average number of DUI arrests and vehicles impounded per checkpoint?
An average of five (5) DUI arrests and 16 vehicles are towed at each checkpoint- (We also issue an average
of 28 citations per checkpoint.)
4- What is the magnitude of your city's problem concerning repeat DUI offenders who violate probation or
fail to appear in court? Do you currently have a program that proactively addresses this issue?
In January 2006, we conducted a warrant databank search for DUI offenders that were arrested by Palm
Springs Police that have active warrants for DUI offenses committed in our city. At that time, there were
324 offenders with active DUI warrants. We tried serving several of these warrants and had limited success.
We are seeking information from allied agencies to develop a court sting program for DU1 drivers who
continue to drive on suspended or revoked CDL's. Also, there is currently no mechanism in place with the
Probation Department to address the need to closely monitor repeat DUI offenders.
5. Do you have a backlog of Lin served warrants for repeat DUI offenders?
Yes, over 300 active DUT warrants
6- How many of your traffic officers have received Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) training?
22 officers or 24°Io of our officers have attended the required SFST training
7- What is your current administrative recovery fee for vehicles impounded for up to 30 days and how much
of the fee goes to the General Fund vs- a special Traffic Offender account?How is it used?
There is currently a $75.00 administrative fee that returns to the General Fund. Beginning in late 2007, we
have renegotiated a flat rate annual franchise fee of$25,000 from each of the four participating tow agencies
to pay each year in lieu of the per car fees- This money is used to fund another clerical position in the
Department to keep up with the increasing trafic related documentation-
PERFORMANCE MEASURES:
Goals: Goals serve as the foundation upon which the grant is built- Goals are what you hope to accomplish by
implementing a traffic safety grant program.
1. To reduce the number of persons lolled in traffic collisions by 25% from the calendar FFY 2006 base year

5. To conduct Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) training for 6 officers by March 31, 2008.
6. To conduct 4 DUI/DL checkpoints by September 30, 2008.
Nate: For combination DUI/DL checkpoints, departments must issue press releases that mention
DL's will be checked at the DUI/DL checkpoint. Also, according to the Attorney General's Office
all DUl/DL checkpoint operations must have signs reading "DUI/Driver's License Checkpoint
Ahead." Checkpoint operations should not commence prior to 1800 hours unless you have received
OTS approval.
To maximize effectiveness, it may be necessary to conduct a checkpoint operation at more than one
location on any given day/night. Each checkpoint should be,highly publicized and visible. No
occupant restraint citations will be issued at the checkpoints. OTS does not fund or support
independent DL checkpoints. Checkpoint operations should not commence prior to 1800 hours
unless you have received OTS approval.
7. To conduct 48 DUI saturation patrols specifically to locate impaired and speeding drivers by September 30,
2008.
S. To conduct 4 warrant service operations targeting multiple DUI offenders who violate probation terms or
fail to appear in court by September 30, 2008.
9. To develop a"Plot Sheet" program to notify patrol and traffic officers to be on the lookout for identified
repeat DUI offenders with suspended or revoked licenses as a result of DUI convictions by December 31,
2007. Updated Hot Sheets will be, distributed to patrol and traffic officers every three to four weeks.
10. To conduct 0 "Stakeout" operations that employ police officers to observe the "worst of the worst" repeat
DUI offender probationers with suspended or revoked driver licenses by September 30, 2008. Between the
warrant services, the DUI checkpoints, and the saturation patrols that are planned during this funding
period, we believe that the personnel funding allocations are better used for more saturation patrols. We
have been highly effective during the last year in locating repeat known "worst of the worst" offenders
while actively palrollmg for other impaired drivers in the city areas of the known DUI violations.
11, To conduct 0 "Court Sting" operations to cite individuals driving from court after having their license
suspended or revoked by September 30, 2008- The local court is over 30 miles away from Palm Springs.
Between the warrant services, the DUI checkpoints, and the saturation patrols that are planned during this
funding period, we believe that the personnel funding allocations are better used for more saturation
patrols. We have been highly effective during the last year in locating repeat known "worst of the worst"
offenders while actively patrolling for other impaired drivers in the city areas of the known DUI violations.
We also plan on targeting these same individuals during our planed warrant operations.
