PROJECT No: AL0331
PROJECT DESCRIPTION PAGE 1
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The City of Palm Springs has experienced a growth in population since 2001, and steady increases in traffic and
higher levels of congestion on its road system. However, due to competing priorities and manpower limitations
the level of traffic and DUI enforcement has remained constant or decreased slightly from levels in the early
1990's. To improve our traffic and DUI enforcement capabilities the Department is looking at ways to enhance
traffic officer staffing levels.
Currently, the Preliminary Alcohol Sensors (PAS) devices operated by the department are antiquated. Also, the
department does not have video recording equipment for sobriety checkpoints to record Field Sobriety Tests of
DUI suspects. Videotapes of DUI stops are vital for supporting prosecution that the FSTs were conducted in
accordance with requirements. Also, the department lacks in-car video cameras for recording the audio-visual
actions of both the department's officers and DUI suspects. In-car video tapes are vital for supporting
prosecution that the FSTs were conducted in accordance with requirements.
The department needs to augment the number of Evidential Portable Alcohol System (EPAS) devices beyond
the allotment it will receive from the State Department of Justice. OTS provided DOJ a grant for 1,000 EPAS
devices. The Palm Springs Police Department will receive a few EPAS devices. Due to the value of these
devices in promoting efficiency of collecting breath evidence of DUI, and the high alcohol-involved traffic
issues occurring in the City of Palm Springs,the department needs more EPAS devices.
PROJECT GOALS
1. To reduce the number of total injury and fatal collisions by 20% from the calendar 2001 base year total of
322 to 258 by March 31, 2007.
2. To reduce alcohol involved fatal and injury collisions by 30% from the calendar 2001 base year total of 45
to 32 by March 31, 2007.
3. To reduce speed related fatal and injury collisions by 10% from the calendar 2001 base year total of 70 to 63
by March 31, 2007.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES
1. To increase DUI arrests 30% from the calendar year 2001 base year total of 232 to 302 by September 30,
2003, and an additional 10%to 332 by March 31, 2007.
2. To conduct a total of 8 briefing trainings for DUI by March 31, 2007.
3. To conduct 35 special DUI enforcement operations aimed at the drinking drivers, other drug impaired
drivers, and drowsy drivers by September 30,2003, and an additional 55 operations by March 31, 2007.
4. To conduct 3 sobriety checkpoints by September 30, 2003, and an additional 3 sobriety checkpoints by
March 31, 2007.

METHOD OF PROCEDURE
Phase 1 —Program Preparation (April 1, 2006—August 15, 2006)
During this phase of the grant, the City of Palm Springs Police Department will implement a traffic/DUI
enforcement program utilizing officers on an overtime basis, These officers will focus on hazardous vehicle
code violations and DUI enforcement. Computerized input of citations and arrest data will be recoverable, and
provides measurable results. These results will be compared on a monthly basis to determine if grant objectives
are being met, and/or if a measurable reduction in traffic violations is noted.
Equipment will be procured. The Palm Springs Police Department has an agreement with State DOJ crime labs
to service, and calibrate the Evidential Portable Alcohol System (EPAS) devices.
A roll-call training program will be provided to assist patrol operations personnel. This training outlines the
goals, objectives, and method of operation of this program. Officers selected to participate will be updated on
current traffic situations and will be prepared to implement the program.
Phase 2—Pro¢ram Operations (April 1, 2006—March 31, 2007)
Training will be accomplished, and the DUI Enforcement and the Collision Reduction Program will be
accomplished by deploying personnel during peak traffic flow times at locations identified as high collision
locations. DUI Checkpoints will be conducted at various locations 3 times during the time frame. Immediately
upon deployment,project data will be collected and be evaluated as stated.
Community involvement will be employed throughout the program by providing public information through the
City's PIO explaining the programs objectives.

Dear Chief Jeandron:
Enclosed are the continuation documents for your traffic safety project. These documents reflect
adjustments to prior fiscal year funding based on costs reported through September 30, 2004. The Office
of Traffic Safety(OTS) has adjusted current year funding to reflect the approved carryover of
unexpended prior year funds.
Your request for an I9-month no-cost time extension from September 30, 2004, to March 31, 2006, is
approved. The time extension requires a new Page 1 of the Project Agreement reflecting that the project
period concludes March 31, 2006. This extension will allow for strategic realignment using contracting
of allied agencies.
Also, your request to transfer $15,000 from Contractual Services to Equipment is approved. The
revision allows for the procurement of a radar trailer to reduce motorists' speeds,hence collisions. Your
request to transfer$4,500 from Contractual Services to Travel is approved. The revision allows for in-
state travel to the OTS Summit and Specialized Field Sobriety Testing Training. Your request to transfer
$5,000 from Contractual Services to Other Direct Costs is approved. The revision allows for procuring a
cone pattern set-up for each DUI/DL checkpoint to enhance officers' safety. The time-extension and
inclusion of the radar hailer necessitate a revision of the goals and objectives contained in Schedule A.
Please consult with your Regional Coordinator on the revision process. Further, the Schedule A-1
Agency Contribution needs to be revised to reflect the extension and expanded operations.
If you have any questions, please contact Dennis Hall, Regional Coordinator, at(916) 262-0999 or

PROJECT DESCRIPTION PAGE 1
BACKGROUND:
A. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The City of Palm Springs, California is a resort city located in the Coachella Valley approximately 100 miles
Southeast of Los Angeles. The population of Palm Springs fluctuates greatly during the year. The City has
43,000 full time residents and that number will top 100,000 on busy weekends or during winter vacation due
to weather and tourism.
Palm Springs is the gateway community on the northern end of Coachella Valley off of Highway I I I through
its access to the Interstate 10 East and West. Therefore, Palm Springs is impacted by traffic whether or not
motorists intend to be in Palm Springs.
Palm Springs, and the cities adjacent to Palm Springs are popular for recreation all year around, as there are
gold tournaments, and other entertainment venues. Further, it is a popular entertainment venue for Marine
Corps persomiel from Twenty-nine Palms Marine Corps Center.
B. STREET AND HIGHWAYS:
The City of Palm Springs has over 260 miles of roadways within its City limits. The roadways vary from a 6-
lane interstate highway to small one-way residential streets.
C. OPERATING DEPARTMENTS:
The traffic division of the Palm Springs Police Department will be the primary unit responsible for
implementing this program. The Police Department will fill overtime positions from within the department.
D. EXISTING SYSTEMS:
The Palm Springs Police Department consists of 88 sworn officers and 46 non-sworn employees. The
department has 7 officers assigned to the traffic tmit consisting of a sergeant, one investigator and 5 motor
officers. These employees are responsible for traffic enforcement and collision investigation.
The department has 35 officers assigned to patrol,who also participate in traffic enforcement efforts.
Palm Springs PD is a participant in the OTS funded project"Avoid the 30,"hosted by Perris PD.
Palm Springs PD is a grantee under the OTS funded"Seatbelt Mobilization"program.
Palm Springs PD has an agreement with State DOJ crime labs to service, and calibrate the EPAS devices.

PROJECT No: AL0331
PROJECT DESCRIPTION PAGE 2
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The City of Palm Springs has experienced a growth in population of 4 % from 1997-01, AND steady increases
in traffic and higher levels of congestion on its 260-mile road system. However, due to competing priorities
and manpower limitations the level of traffic and DUI enforcement has remained constant or decreased
slightly from levels in the early 1990s. To improve our traffic and DUI enforcement capabilities the
Department is looking at ways to enhance traffic officer staffing levels.
Currently,the Preliminary Alcohol Sensors (PAS) devices operated by the department are antiquated. Also,
the department does not have video recording equipment for sobriety checkpoints to record Field Sobriety
Tests of DUI suspects. Videotapes of DUI stops are vital for supporting prosecution that the FSTs were
conducted in accordance with requirements. Also, the department lacks in-car video cameras for recording the
audio-visual actions of both the department's officers and DUI suspects. In-car video tapes are vital for
supporting prosecution that the FSTs were conducted in accordance with requirements.
The department needs to augment the number of Evidential Portable Alcohol System (SPAS) devices beyond
the allotment it will receive from the State Department of Justice. OTS provided DOJ a grant for 1,000 EPAS
devices. Palm Springs Police Department will receive a few EPAS devices. Due to the value of these devices
in promoting efficiency of collecting breath evidence of DUI, and the high alcohol-involved traffic issues
occurring in the City of Palm Springs, the department needs more EPAS devices.

The City of Palm Springs commissioned a Traffic Safety Evaluation and Enforcement Analysis from the
California Institute of Transportation Safety. The Institute sent a committee to Palm Springs to conduct an
engineering and enforcement analysis. This study was completed in June 2001 and identified several areas
of concern. Most important, the study demonstrated the need for a dedicated DUI enforcement program.
Due to a lack of available resources no such program exists at this time. Presently the City of Palm Springs
Police Department consists of 88 sworn officers. The permanent resident population of the City is
approximately 43,500. However during the seasonal months of October through May the population swells
to over 100,000. Year round, a total of six officers are assigned to traffic enforcement, including five motor
officers and one sergeant. Serious staffing shortages in the past have prevented the police department from
establishing an effective DUI program.
As indicated in the Office of Traffic Safety rankings for 2000,the City of Palm Springs has some very
disturbing trends apparent in the data. In the City's population group, Palm Springs ranks 3`d in "Total and
Fatal Collisions,"2nd in"Alcohol-Involved Collisions", I lth in"Speed-Related Collisions", and 12d' in
"Pedestrians Injured or Killed." Additionally, BAC result averages from DUI arrest have increased from
.159 in 1996 to .194 in 2000.
DUI arrests increased from 261 in 1999 to 266 in 2000. Also, alcohol related collisions and injuries
increased from 1999 to 2000. All of the data points to a dramatic increase in impaired drivers and evidence
of a growing problem in Palm Springs.
ATTEMPTS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM:
The City in collaboration with the other local police departments has attempted in a variety of ways to
positively impact these overwhelming and disturbing traffic safety problems. Both, as individual entities and
in concert with one another, we have implemented a variety of enforcement programs. Examples include DUI
checkpoints, Red Ribbon Week, and DUI patrols.
Attempts to solve the problems, in conjunction with OTS, DMV, and City code enforcement offices and other
agencies have met with limited success. Efforts have been ongoing and have included approaches as follows:
1. Routine and regular bar/merchant checks by officers specifically assigned to the targeted area.
OTS-38A(Rev 5/99)
SCHEDULE A
PROJECT No: AL0331
PROJECT DESCRIPTION PAGE 4
2. Decoy personnel ("sting") operations. Working plain clothes at the location of bar/merchants,
with the cooperation of the licensee, and citing minors attempting to enter licensees with false
identification.
3. Minor decoy ("sting") operations. Using a person wider 21 in attempts to purchase alcohol.
4. Periodic DUI Checkpoints and DUI Saturation Patrols.
Interaction with alcohol establishments has been generally positive, however the impact of the young
population on these alcohol establishments is significant. It is not uncommon to find inadequately trained
staff(of young age) that both inadvertently and intentionally violates the provisions of the ABC code. This
specifically includes sales to minors, serving intoxicated customers and accepting false identifications, all
impacting traffic safety.

SCHEDULE A
PROJECT No: AL0331
PROJECT DESCRIPTION PAGE 6
Phase 1 -Program Preparation (November 1,2002—March 15,2003)
During this phase of the grant, and beginning on the date awarded,the City of Palm Springs Police
Department will implement a traffic/DUI enforcement program-utilizing officers on an overtime basis.
These officers will focus on hazardous vehicle code violations, DUI enforcement. Computerized input of
citations and arrest data will be recoverable, and provides measurable results. These results will be
compared on a monthly basis to determine if grant objectives are being met, and/or if a measurable
reduction in traffic violations is noted.
Equipment will be procured. Palm Springs Police Department has an agreement with State DOJ crime labs
to service, and calibrate the Evidential Portable Alcohol System (EPAS) devices.
A roll-call training program will be created to assist patrol operations personnel. This training will outline
the goals, objectives, and method of operation of this program. Officers selected to participate will be
updated on current traffic situations and will be prepared to implement the program.
Phase 2 - Preliminary Training (November 1, 2002—March 15,2003)
Training set up in Phase I will be implemented.
Any additional project goals or objectives will be identified.
Phase 3 -Implement DUI Enforcement and Collision Reduction Program (November 15,2002-
September 30, 2004)
Implementation of the DUI Enforcement and Collision Reduction Program will be accomplished by
deploying personnel during peak traffic flow times at locations identified as high collision locations. DUI
Checkpoints will be conducted at various locations 3 times during the time frame. Immediately upon
deployment,project data will be collected and be evaluated as stated.
During fiscal year 2003, the department will determine if its own personnel alone can support the operations
solely for DUI interdiction or if it would be prudent to request an OTS revision. The revision, if approved,
would move some finds from Personnel to Contractual Services so that the department can contract with
allied agencies to augment the department's sworn officer strength in conducting DUI operations. The
department will make this determination by September 30, 2003 so that its decision can be included in the
carry forward justification letter it submits to OTS along with the September 30, 2003 progress claim.
Phase 4 - Community Involvement (Throughout Program)
