The City of El Segundo was incorporated on January 17, 1917. The El Segundo Police Department is led by Chief Mitch Tavera along with two captains, six lieutenants and eight sergeants. The department is authorized 63 sworn officers and 36 civilian employees. The Department is divided into two bureaus, Field Operations and Administration Services, with each captain having responsibility for a bureau. The Field Operations Bureau includes Patrol, Special Operations, Investigations, SWAT, K -9, Jail Operations, Property and Evidence and the Field Training Program. The Administration Services Bureau includes Support Services, Professional Standards and Communications. The Department provides service to a resident population of over 16,654. The Department patrols 5.5 square miles of mixed residential and industrial area, including 1.4 miles of beach front. The City of Manhattan Beach borders El Segundo to the south and Hermosa Beach to the north. The Manhattan Beach Police Department was established in December of 1912. The Manhattan Beach Police Department is led by Chief Eve Irvine with two captains, five lieutenants and 11 sergeants. The department is authorized 65 sworn officers and 36 civilian employees. The Department is divided into two bureaus, Field Operations Bureau and Administration and Investigations Bureau, with each captain having responsibility for a bureau. The Field Operations Bureau includes Patrol, Traffic, Parking Enforcement, Animal Control, K -9, SWAT, ABC Enforcement and the Reserve Officer Program. The Administrative and Investigations Bureau includes Human Resources, Personnel and Training, Crime Prevention, Investigations, Jail Operations, Property and Evidence, Communications, Technical Services and School Resource Officers. The Department provides services to a resident population of over 35,135. The Department patrols 3.88 square miles, 2.1 miles of beach front, 40 acres of recreational beach area, 48 acres of park land and 120 miles of paved streets. The City of Hermosa Beach borders Manhattan Beach to the south, approximately 22 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. The City was incorporated on January 14, 1907. The Hermosa Beach Police Department is led by Chief Sharon Papa along with one captain, two lieutenants and seven sergeants. The department is authorized 36 sworn officers and 23 civilian employees. The Department is divided into two divisions, Operation and Administration, each headed by a lieutenant. The Operations Division consists of Investigations, Records, Jail Operations, Property and Evidence. The Hermosa Beach Police Department provides public safety to a residential population of over 19,508. The Department patrols 1.43 square miles, with 1.5 miles of beach front. b.)Funding Requested: The El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments request the amount of $47,674 to enhance their current levels of enforcement and education regarding ABC licensed establishments, address problems associated with alcohol sales and consumption that effect quality of life issues in our communities and to address the abundant and free availability of alcohol to minors. c.) Goals and Objectives: The El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments are committed to enhancing their levels of enforcement and education regarding ABC licensed establishments and problems associated with alcohol sales. These three agencies will work together with ABC investigators to identify and target problematic establishments and will participate in sting Exhibit A SCOPE OF'WORK operations; conduct party prevention deployments and train officers from each department on ABC enforcement tactics, strategies and administrative accusation processes. The departments will work together to improve the public's awareness of ABC rules, regulations and enforcement activities by conducting presentations at community group meetings and submitting press releases that support the efforts of the Grant program. The progress will be reported to ABC on a monthly basis and will include a final year -end report. The El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments have a value system in place that is dedicated to providing the finest police services to residents and visitors in their respective communities. The members of these departments are dedicated to ensuring the safety of their citizens and protecting the quality of life that exists in each of their communities. This project has the full support and commitment of all three Police Chiefs and the members of their departments. d.) Number of ABC Licensed Locations: Between these three cities, there are 316 establishments licensed by ABC to sell alcohol. There are 244 on -sale licenses and 72 off -sale establishments. 2.) Problem Statement Together, the El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments provide public safety to a population of over 71,300 residing in approximately 10.81 square miles. These cities are home to several large shopping malls that include popular bars and restaurants. These cities have established a reputation as having a vibrant and thriving social scene. These cities have a mixed use of residential, commercial and industrial zones that include bars, restaurants, taverns and hotels, which creates a high number of complaints against ABC licensed establishments. Each city boasts a vibrant downtown that is home to numerous bars and nightclubs, all located within blocks of each other on pedestrian friendly walks, adjacent to the beach. Thousands of people descend on these cities nightly to partake in the active night life that has grown very popular among young adults. In 2015, the El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments have responded to over 76,190 calls for service and officers have initiated over 38,179 contacts. Many of these calls and contacts were alcohol related. In 2015, these departments arrested 468 adults and 8 juveniles for DUI, many of which involved injury traffic collisions. These departments also arrested 517 adults and 14 juveniles for public intoxication. These departments also cited 544 adults and 25 juveniles related to alcohol violations and cited 5 adults for furnishing alcohol to minors. These three cities have 316 establishments licensed to sell alcoholic beverages and they continue to receive applications for additional licenses. These three cities are home to upscale shopping, dining and beaches that host a variety of popular events that attract very large crowds, including Professional Volleyball Tournaments, the International Surf Festival, the Manhattan Beach Six Man Volleyball Tournament, the El Segundo Easter Keg Hunt, the Hermosa Beach St. Patrick's Day Parade, Hermosa Beach 30`h Street Iron Man Competition and a Grand Prix Bike Race. The Manhattan Beach Six Man Volleyball Tournament draws in about 50,000 spectators for the two day tournament, which creates an atmosphere where adults and juveniles commit alcoholic related violations. Each year the Hermosa Beach 301h Street Iron Man Competition concludes with the "chugging" of a six pack of beer. The El Segundo Easter Keg Hunt allows competitors /teams to drink a beer at eight locations while searching for eight decorated kegs around the city for special prizes. This causes a danger to the public due to intoxicated competitors running through the streets looking for the decorated kegs. Several of the bars have become popular to underage students from Exhibit A SCOPE OF WO. nearby colleges such as, Loyola Marymount University, University of Southern California, University of California Los Angeles and several local community colleges. Several residents continue to complain about party bus excursions that are sponsored by local bars where a bus will pick up students at a college and drop them off in the area to patronize the bars with no consideration to how the residential area is affected. Many students have been caught using false /counterfeit identification cards while attempting to purchase alcoholic beverages or gain entry into various night clubs and attend events such as the described party bus excursion or pub crawls. Violators are primarily young adults who have developed a reputation for prolific alcohol consumption. Several bars in each city continue to generate numerous calls for service. On several occasions, mutual aid from surrounding agencies was required to assist in quelling the disturbances. Management or owners of these establishments were made aware of the problems at their businesses but many show little or no effort to reduce the problems. One of the more popular Manhattan Beach establishments is called " Sharkeez." This establishment has increased the number of calls for service for both the El Segundo Police and Manhattan Beach Police. There was an assault with a deadly weapon call in Manhattan Beach outside of Sharkeez where several intoxicated male adults were fighting and one person was hit with a metal pipe. The City of El Segundo has just recently built a new shopping mall that includes six new ABC licensed establishments. Two of these establishments, Craft Shack and HopDoddy are bars. Craft Shack is opening in early 2016 and HopDoddy has become a very popular drinking spot with young adults. During the summer months, spring and winter breaks, a large number of minors flock to these cities looking for entertainment in the downtown and pier areas. The influx of minors often culminates in underage drinking, resulting in complaints about public intoxication, urinating in public, drinking after hours and disruptive behavior. In 2014 and 2015, these agencies investigated several rapes and assaults that were related to alcohol consumption at several ABC licensed establishments. Responding to these complaints requires an inordinate amount of police, fire and other city services that take away from community needs and have a tremendous impact on existing personnel. Currently, the El Segundo Police Department's cases are heard in the Airport Division of the Los Angeles Superior Court, and the Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Department's cases are heard in the Southwest Division of the Los Angeles Superior Court. All three Police Departments have a close working relationship with the Office of the District Attorney and have a very good record of obtaining convictions on cases related to the types of crimes and violations that ABC is targeting. The grants goals and objectives have been discussed with the Assistant Head Deputy District Attorney of the Airport Division, Gilbert Wright and Filing D.A. Lester Kuriyama, who both agree with the importance of prosecution of alcohol related crimes that reduce the availability of alcohol to minors and reduce calls for service to problematic locations. 3.) Project Descril2tion The following goals and objectives will be performed during the 12 months of this project by the Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and El Segundo Police Departments; 1. Train one sergeant from the El Segundo Police Department who will be responsible for the management of the grant and train one officer from each department who will be responsible for carrying out the grant goals and objectives. 2. The sergeant and/or officers assigned to the grant detail will attend training presentations and conferences offered by ABC during the year. Exhibit A SCOPE OF WORK 3. Prepare press releases in cooperation with ABC, to announce the project and report on significant progress and activities. 4. Make 3 presentations to a community group on ABC issues as part of the education process (one in each city). 5. Conduct 2 LEAD training seminars to include all three cities at the same time to educate licensees and employees on responsible service. 6. Conduct 4 IMPACT inspections where officers will visit licensed establishments to insure compliance with ABC regulations and attempt to gain voluntary compliance. 7. Conduct 2 Party Patrol and Dispersal Deployments to include all three cities at the same time in an attempt to identify and enforce alcohol violations by minors and adults who furnish alcohol to minors. 8. Conduct 7 stings to include Minor Decoy and Shoulder TAP Stings to detect, prosecute and deter furnishing alcohol to minors. 9. Conduct 2 Trap Door /Cops in Shops deployments where officers will pose as customers in various establishments to detect and discourage violations such as minors using fraudulent identification, over service, after hour sales and consumption or municipal violations. 4.)Pr°oiect Personnel The Grant Assistant Program (GAP) will fall under the Field, Operations Bureau of the El Segundo Police Department. The staffing needed for each department to carry out the grant goals and objectives will require one sergeant from the El Segundo Police Department who will be responsible for the overall coordination and supervision of the operations and managing the grant. This sergeant will also participate in the operations, testify in court and in ABC administrative hearings and attend training offered by ABC during the year. Staffing will also require three officers (one from each agency) who will be responsible for attending training presentations offered by ABC during the year, carrying out the operations, testifying in court and ABC hearings and conducting public education presentations. Currently, the El Segundo Police Department's ABC efforts are supervised by Sergeant Hugo Perez and assisted by Detective Ryan Danowitz. Involved officers also include officers from Patrol, Traffic, Detectives, Community LEAD Officers and School Resource Officers. The Manhattan Beach Police Department's ABC efforts are supervised by Sergeant Chris Vargas and assisted by Officer Michael Allard. Involved officers also include officers from Patrol, Traffic, Detectives, and School Resource Officers. The Hermosa Beach Police Department's ABC efforts are supervised by Sergeant Dorothy Scheid and assisted by Officer Donovan Sellan. Involved officers also include officers from Patrol and Detectives. These units and personnel have numerous years of experience in law enforcement, including ABC enforcement strategies. The El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach Police Departments have experienced budget cuts which reduced special enforcement projects such as ABC enforcement and these cuts have continued with little relief in the future. With the funding support and assistance of the GAP grant, our goal is to expand our present efforts in addressing alcohol related problems and successfully impacting the issues of alcohol sales to minors, service to intoxicated persons, and problem establishments will be accomplished within our cities using a variety of strategies that emphasize education and a strong enforcement effort.
