RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriations Adjustment No. 5023 authorizing new revenue in the Sheriff's Office (0255) in the amount of $602,579 from the California Office of Traffic Safety, "Avoid the 25" DUI campaign and appropriating it for DUI enforcement equipment and activities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action increases revenue and appropriations by $602,579. There is no change in net county cost.
BACKGROUND:

On March 11, 2008, the Board approved and authorized the Sheriff-Coroner to apply for and accept a State of California Office of Traffic Safety Avoid the 25 Program grant to help fund a comprehensive, multi-jurisdictional driving under the influence (DUI) enforcement campaign (item C.64). This program is designed to decrease the number of DUI related traffic collisions and fatalities by increasing the number of DUI arrests. Additionally, the "Avoid the 25" program is intended to reduce collisions and fatalities through greater public awareness and education from media coverage of the program. The program has proven to be effective in three additional Bay Area counties, and has resulted in an increase in DUI arrests with a reduction in DUI related collisions.  
  
The original grant award was $662,473 and approximately $59,894 was claimed in fiscal year 2008/09, resulting in a grant balance of $602,579. This request reflects the remaining balance of the grant award, which has not been appropriated in the department's fiscal year 2009/10 operating budget.
