FROH: Clty Attorney
SUBJECT: Third Year Grant Applicatlon
Law Enforcement ASSlstance Administration
Introductlon
The Clty Attorney's Offlce has a Legal Planning
Unlt WhlCh is funded in part from monles made avallable pursuant
to the Crlme Control Act of 1973, PL 93-83, admlnistered by the
state office of Crimlnal Justlce Planning (OCJP) . A three-year
contract was approved by the Clty CounCll and executed by the
Clty Manager on behalf of the Clty. The Legal Plannlng Unlt
has completed and exhausted funds for the first and second
years of the grant contract. Slnce the contract calls for a
flve percent (5%) hard match of funds by the City, a
resolutlon authorizing that appropriation and authorlzing
the Clty Manager to execute the applicatlon for third year
grant funds must be approved.
Background
Flrst year fundlng under the grant base salary and
beneflts was $59,714, wlth Clty hard match $2,985.70; Second
year fundlng for base salary and beneflts was cut by the state
and totaled only $12,396, wlth a Clty hard match $619.80. We
are asklng for a slight lncrease lnthe base salary and beneflts

package for the th~rd year from $12,396 to $19,409. This
results 1n an 1ncrease in the Clty'S hard match in the amount
of $350.65. The hard match by the C1ty, then, for the th~rd
year of the ?rant, wll1 total $970.45.
We feel that thlS lncrease is necessary to mainta~n
the Plann~ng Unlt performance and in order to adequately
compensate the unit staff member for his expertlse. The
attorney who compr1ses our un~t staff, beSldes discharg~ng
h1S respons~blllt1es under the grant (reporting, superv1slon,
1mplementat1on of grant goals, etc. ) also performs full-t~me
prosecutorial dut1es 1n the Santa Mon1ca Mun1c1pal Court.
Alternatives
1. If the Grant amount 1S cut back agaln or remalns
the same as the second year sum, It will be d1ff1cult to attract
top-cal1bre professionals to work under the Grant. The full
amount requested 1n the resolut1on should be approved.
2. If the Grant 1S not approved for appllcat10n
to OCJP, the C1ty would have to immediately appropriate a full
base salary and beneflt package for an attorney to assume
the prosecutor1al dut1es of the LEAA staff attorney.
Recomrnendatlon
It 15 respectfully recommended that the City CounCll
approve the resolut1on for appl1cat1on for th1rd year Grand
Funds ln the amount stated, authorlz1ng the appropriatlon of
$970.45
