5. Provide a description of your current community policing program and strategies
that are functioning in your local law enforcement agency to promote community
policing concepts and practices by responding to categories (a) through (I). If you do
not presently have a community policing program, please detail your proposed
program in responding to categories (a) through (I).
a. Identify in descending order, the five public safety issues of most concern in your
community.
Violent crimes against persons, Domestic violence, Drug crimes, Weapons, Gangs
b. List any fiscal, budgetary, or other limitations on your agency's ability to address
the public safety needs identified above.
Federal assistance provides the catalyst for Oakland County to become involved in
innovative policing strategies. Without the Federal grant program, it would be difficult to
address the multi-jurisdictional nature of violent crimes against persons. Due to the
limitations placed on the County budget, joint projects are much easier to institute than that
of a single source plan.

d. Describe current community policing efforts that are functioning in your agency.
Include the activities performed by patrol officers, the percentage of time that patrol
officers dedicate to these community policing functions, and the date your agency
implemented its community policing program.
The Oakland County Sheriffs Department, in concert with the consortium, currently has
several community policing programs in operation. Most of the agencies have started School
Liaison and D.A.R.E. officers over the past decade as well as bicycle and foot patrols in the
higher populated areas. These officers dedicate the majority of their work schedules to these
programs. The consortium has also started many other programs, such as Citizen Academies,
Neighborhood Action Committees and Watches, Shoplifting Prevention, Senior Citizen
Meals on Wheels, Citizen Crime Prevention Training, Cable Television announcements and
many Youth programs. The various Youth programs consist of Bicycle Registration and
Safety, Fingerprinting and Photographing, Athletic Leagues, Community High School Police
Academy. S.C.O.P.E (Stop drinking. Consider consequences, Observe yourself. Protect
society, Educate others), H.O.T. (Hazards of Tobacco), and T.H.I.N.K.(Teaching, Helping,
Noticing, Kids) programs for grade school and middle school students. Officers
involved with these programs average between 10 and 20 percent of their time with
implementation dates ranging from 1958 through this year.
e. Complete the following information that describes the level of automation available
in your local law enforcement agency.
• Describe current technology and equipment utilized in your agency.
The Courts Law Enforcement Management Information System (CLEMIS) is an on-line
computer application that provides database and communication capabilities through the use
of DumbZ data terminals. Of the forty-six participating CLEMIS law enforcement agencies,
thirty-nine input information through CLEMIS terminals to be processed and stored in a
mainframe computer managed by the Oakland County Information Technology Department.
The remaining agencies provide their department information through periodic batch
downloads. Users on any CLEMIS terminal can transmit messages to any other CLEMIS
terminal, initiate on-line queries and share mutually important information. However, other
reports. including numerous administrative and statistical reports, require COBOL
programming and are produced by a select staff of individuals, in a batch mode.
Currently. the platform for the CLEMIS Mobile Data Terminals (MDT) system is a 420-429
MHZ band radio frequency communications network consisting of five base stations
strategically placed around the County to provide 95% coverage to approximately 500
MDTs. assigned to forty-six agencies (32 of which are PSAPs). The Dumb" MDTs are
ElectroCom model 870 mobile data terminals. We use two ElectroCom RDC 97 controllers
(one for the northern portion of the County and one for the balance of the County) and one
message switch. The message switch interfaces with LEIN. CAD and the RMS. Each
agency is linked with every other agency and with the CLEMIS mainframe computer,
4.
operated by the Oakland County Information Technology Department. The heart of the
mobile data system was installed in the late 1980's, is currently running at 4800 bps. and has
a total system capacity of 16,000 messages per hour.
• Indicate which new or expanded technology and equipment items would be of most
benefit to your agency.
The Oakland County Law Enforcement Consortium (OCLEC) proposes to purchase two
complementary and interrelated systems (ITEM 41 and ITEM #2) that are directly linked to
timesaving. It is important to note that the proposed systems will enhance the existing
infrastructure. Specifically, as previously mentioned, CLEMIS has provided sworn
personnel with mobile data in-car terminals since 1988. However, information that has been
accessible has been limited. While CLEMIS agencies have benefited from multiple Computer
Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems and a regional Records Management System (RMS), sworn
personnel have not had the sophistication of Field Data Capture technology, (the ability to
forward reports for review, corrections and submittal from the field), nor the technology for
mobile automated fingerprint identification, mobile mugshot identification or in-field
pre-booking. This reduces the amount of time officers spend in the community and hampers
their ability to actively engage in community oriented policing activities. Therefore. the
OCLEC proposes to purchase a system that will enable the officers to process reports on
mobile data computers, submit reports from the field, access fingerprint and mugshot data
from the field and conduct pre-booking process to save time for patrol, investigative, and
corrections personnel. Enhancing data transmission capabilities to the existing frequency
infrastructure via mobile data upgrades and specialized mobile transmission kits mounted in
each vehicle will make this technology attainable.
This increased time in the field coupled with the use of an automated information access to
patrol, investigations, administration, community oriented policing and corrections will result
in increased time officers will engage in community oriented policing activities.
As per the requirements of the Federal grant application, the technology has been arranged
into two groups:
ITEM 41
• CLEMIS Upgrade -Police Records Management System/CAD:
Migration of existing information onto a Windows NT
platform and Windows NT CAD and RMS for the access of
information through an intranet
• Wide Area Network
For the distribution of information throughout the forty-six
CLEMIS agencies at the Police/Public Safety Departments
• Crime Analysis Software
To allow the sworn personnel to conduct basic and complex
crime analysis, with access to a county wide database of
information both in their cars and at their Police/Public
5.
Safety Departments
• GIS / Road Centerline File Development
For the base structure of the CAD and RMS to support all
other reliant functions
• Mobile Data Computers
To allow for the automated report v.i -riting, data retrieval
and input processes, pre-booking, wants and warrants
checks, access to and from the CAD and RMS systems as
well as access to State and National informational systems,
and other data access
• Mobile Enabling Kits
To allow each mobile data computer to transmit and receive
data from the field
• In-Vehicle Printers
• CAD Workstation
• Desktop computer
• Printers
To allow sworn officers to print documentation (reports,
images, traffic citations) in the field
To allow for dispatch on the new Windows NT based CAD
and RMS systems
To allow sworn personnel in Investigations and
Administrations assignments access to all automated
information and technology
To allow sworn personnel in Investigations and
Administrations assignments the ability to have a hard copy
of the accessible automated information and technology
This technology will upgrade the existing CAD/RMS to a Windows NT based,
open architecture system; provide new CAD workstations compatible with the
new CAD/RMS; provide a wide area network for the distribution of the
information to stationary sites (law enforcement agencies and corrections
facilities); and mobile enable the information with laptop computers and printers
in law enforcement vehicles. This technology will significantly reduce the time
spent in non-community policing activities for sworn officers assigned to Patrol,
Investigations, Administration, Community Oriented Policing, and, to a lesser
extent, but still significant, for sworn officers assigned to Custody..
ITEM 42
Jail Management System
To allow for the fully integrated and automated
classification, management and coordination of inmates;
and to allow for pre-booking of arrestees by patrol,
investigative and correctional sworn personnel
• Automated Fingerprinting ID System (Upgrade)
6.
To allow for the automation of the fingerprinting process
with the CAD and RMS and for full integration into the
CLEMIS systems and State and National databases. This
will upgrade thirteen existing workstations with necessary
software to transmit to the State.
• Livescan Fingerprint Archive Database
All fingerprint records from agencies will reside on this
database and will be retrievable by all agencies with
Livescan workstations
• Livescan Work Stations
These will allow for the input and retrieval of fingerprint
information from all CLEMIS agencies
• Mugshot Regional Servers Upgrade
All mugshot records from agencies reside on this database
and are retrievable by all agencies with Mugshot
workstations and new CLEMIS RMS workstations
• Mugshot Capture/Retrieve Stations
These will allow for the input and retrieval of mugshot
information from all CLENIIS agencies
This technology will provide fully integrated automation to jail and inmate
management functions; allow for the pre-booking of arrestees both in the field and
at the various law enforcement agencies; give access to digitized fingerprinting
and mugshots; fully utilize mugshot images when retrieving inmate information;
and allow for user ad-hoc reporting, thereby eliminating the need for current
COBOL programming and batch reporting. This technology will significantly
reduce the time spent in non-community policing activities for sworn officers
assigned to Custody, and, to a lesser extent, but still significant, for sworn officers
assigned to Patrol, Investigations, Administration, Community Oriented Policing.
f. Describe those community policing efforts that would be enhanced or activities that
would be added if you receive the requested financial assistance. Include the specific
technology and equipment items for which funding is requested.
The requested funding in this grant application will enhance the OCLEC's commitment to a
community-oriented policing philosophy by enabling OCLEC member agencies to answer
more calls for service, provide service in a more efficient manner, and spend more time
interacting with the community to promote crime intervention and prevention throughout
Oakland County. Spending more time with the residents, business owners, and patrons, will
allow sworn personnel to become more familiar and interact with community members, and
thereby become more knowledgeable and effective in identifying. addressing, and solving
problems in the community. Development of these relationships is essential for the success
of community oriented policing.
7.
The enhancement, advancement, and further development of the existing centralized, fully
integrated county-wide law enforcement CLEMIS information system will result in the
redeployment of a minimum of 835.94 FTEs to community oriented policing activities.
While the Oakland County Consortium is comprised of forty-six law enforcement agencies,
of differing sizes, needs, responsibilities and configurations, their mission shares the same
foundation -to protect and serve the residents and visitors of their municipalities and
generally to fight crime, spoil the efforts of criminals and remove those who are willing to
break laws for monetary or self-gain. Similarly, the individual community oriented policing
programs of the forty-six law enforcement agencies have a common foundation and many
similarities, yet each approaches this from a slightly different perspective. What follows is a
list of community oriented policing programs from which the OCLEC will selectively
implement dependent upon the needs of the agency and its population served. Further,
interaction with community members will take precedence over specific programs.
Community oriented policing activities that will be enhanced county-wide due to
redeployment of sworn force resources will include, but not be limited to:
Youth Mentoring Programs: Police officers will work with students in local schools and
serve as mentors. Meeting with students, their family and teachers on a weekly basis,
mentors will focus on developing and guiding each student's scholastic and career path. In
other youth programs, police officers will work with juveniles to divert them from entering
the criminal justice system by organizing teen courts, job counseling, parental skill
counseling and other activities designed to divert youth from crime.
Officers in Schools Programs: Police officers will spend time interaaing with students during
their lunch hour and various breaks throughout the day. In addition, officers will teach crime
prevention, drug and alcohol use prevention and other curricula such as Drug Abuse
Resistance Education (DARE) to students during their class periods.
Youth Recreation Programs: Sworn personnel will organize and lead after school youth
recreational activities such as Friday night basketball and dances held at schools.
Senior Volunteer Programs: Sworn personnel will actively recruit and train volunteers from
the senior citizen community to assist sworn personnel with noncritical functions such as
fingerprinting, data entry. parking enforcement and special events in the community.
Neighborhood Watch Programs: Police officers and citizens work together to combat
personal and property crime in their neighborhoods. Police officers will coordinate with
neighborhood representatives to provide information and techniques to protect against
burglary and other crimes. Business Watch Programs will be organized for business owners
in commercial areas.
Neighborhood Enforcement Teams: Sworn personnel will work in teams in partnership with
neighborhoods and other public agencies to address issues that affect citizens and their
communities including vandalism, graffiti, gangs, street level drug activity and property
crimes.
8.
Drug Free Zones: Sworn personnel will assist in identifying residential areas, schools, parks
and day-care centers that have a high concentration of children and can be protected under
the "Drug Free Zone" legislation, which prohibits plea bargaining and enhances penalties for
those who are convicted of drug use or sales within 1,000 feet of the "zone" boundary.
Code Enforcement and Abatement: Sworn personnel will work with a variety of government
agencies to target building and zoning violations and abate problems such as drug houses in
neighborhoods, with an emphasis on rental housing.
Bicycle and Foot Patrols: Sworn personnel will patrol by bicycle or foot in their assigned
areas as a way to increase their accessibility to community members.
Citizen Surveys: Sworn personnel will develop and distribute citizen surveys in order to
collect feedback regarding public safety issues, concerns and priorities in their communities.
Community Outreach: Sworn personnel will make door-to-door visits throughout the
community distributing news letters and other information describing different crime
prevention programs that are offered in their area.
Public Safely Presentations: Sworn personnel will make presentations in schools, businesses
and to community organizations to teach and promote personal safety and crime prevention
strategies to citizens. Presentation topics will also include gang and drug activity
identification, prevention and intervention.
Public Safely and Crime Prevention Fair: Sworn personnel from various public safety
agencies will be available at special community events to disseminate information and
provide educational demonstrations by a variety of specialty policing units. Through this
interaction, the public will gain a greater awareness of public safety agencies and resources
available to the community.
Citizens Academy: Police officers will present Citizen Police Academy programs to local
citizens. Individuals will participate in eight to twelve weekly workshops taught by members
of the law enforcement agencies. In the workshops, citizens gain a greater awareness of the
law enforcement agencies' role in serving the community, and learn skills necessary to assist
the police department in identifying and solving public safety problems.
•
Police Explorers: Sworn personnel will participate in activities related to the community
oriented scout program, which allows young adults to explore law enforcement as a career
opportunity. See response to question 5 e for detailed description of technology and
equipment items.

local crime prevention and control strategies (e.g. Bryne Grants) and identify those
governmental or community initiatives that complement or will be coordinated with
your plans under this grant application.
Within our jurisdiction there are several types of governmental crime control programs.
These programs include the nationally accepted intervention and enforcement programs.
Among them are the Fugitive Apprehension Team, Narcotics Enforcement Team, Alcohol
Enforcement Unit, as well as a number of technical operations including "Livescan"
10.
computer finger prints data base. Other community crime prevention and control programs
include such programs as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and "Neighborhood Watch"
police/citizen groups, which are still active in many of our communities. Also active are
special counseling centers such as "The HAVEN" providing spouse abuse help and training.
Again, the redeployment of officers will help coordinate the various community groups into
working coalitions and achieve a synergism not accomplished by a single agency.
The largest support for community problem solving and crime control is that of County
municipalities. However, each community usually addresses only those problems that are
essential to the operation of their law enforcement needs. Community policing efforts are
usually at the lower end of priorities when funding availability is limited. Past experience
has shown that community policing within the county has been widely supported by the
various municipalities, politicians, law enforcement officials, media and private
organizations. The department anticipates this type of support will continue long into the
future with cooperative implementation of this new program. In the past year and a half, our
department has submitted proposals for support from several private organizations.
Opportunities in this area are limited because private philanthropic organizations generally
require 501(c)(3) Internal Revenue Service tax status. This status is generally not carried by
a public agency. However, the more recent success has been the approval of funding for
numerous facsimile machines to be used in the department and specifically for alcohol
enforcement efforts. Several other non-cash grant requests are currently pending.
I. Briefly explain the impact that receiving requested financial assistance will have on
other criminal justice agencies in your jurisdiction.
The intent of this proposal is to assist in lessening the burden on the prosecutor's office,
courts and other law enforcement agencies through increased community based crime
intervention and control made possible by increased presence of community policing officers
on the streets. Every policing agency in Oakland County is participating in this proposal and
if the requested financial assistance is received, it will not only impact the consortium but
will impact the adjacent agencies in Macomb, Livingston and Wayne counties who have
expressed interests in joining CLEMIS.
6.Provide a one -page description of how you will demonstrate the effectiveness of your
community policing program.
Attached please find the Federal COPS MORE '98 application - Cost Effectiveness
Worksheets.
The unique public safety need which the redepolyed person hours will address will be the
multi-jurisdictional aspect of violent crimes against persons operation. The most unusual
public safety problem that our department experiences is that of multi-jurisdictional
limitations and participation by other in-county law enforcement agencies. The Oakland

County Sheriffs Department patrols approximately one half of the entire county as the
principal law enforcement agency by the use of purchase of services contracts. The rest of
the county is divided among approximately forty three other police agencies. No other law
enforcement agency has the ability to deliver the services without the much needed multi-
jurisdictional authorization. The redeployed person hours will increase the violent crimes
against persons intervention and prevention and the local and regional level.
This proposal for the purchase of technical equipment has demonstrated program cost
effectiveness by increasing the number of community policing officers in Oakland County at
a lower cost than hiring new offices over a five and a half year period with enhancing the
synergism of a county-wide law enforcement data base and communication through an on-
line computer system.
7. Specify your plan to continue employment of police officers hired through the
assistance of state Community Policing Grant funds.
The most positive outcome of a capital purchase of technical equipment for the purpose of
redeployment of sworn personnel to community policing activities is that this is a one time
cost that permanently and positively effects officer's hours on the street. It is the intent of the
Oakland County Sheriffs Department to maintain the achieved levels of increased manpower
on the streets and to reflect that in projected years budgets.
8. To be completed by person authorized by applicant to enter into agreement with the
State of Michigan to receive Community Policing Grant funds.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John P. McCulloch, Chairperson. Oakland County Board of Commissioners
FROM: Oakland County Fiscal Services Division
DATE: 26 June 1998
RE: Report to request normal grant application procedures be abridged for the below captioned
grant application
OAKLAND COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT - STATE OF MICHIGAN
COMMUNITY POLICING GRANT APPLICATION
Pursuant to Miscellaneous Resolution #89105, as modified, this report is made to respectfully
request normal grant application procedures be abridged so the captioned grant application may
be signed and submitted contingent upon the approval of the Board of Commissioners' Public
Services Committee. This request is made in order to meet the application deadline of 30 June
1998. The reason for this request is as follows:
Date of Notification: This grant release was announced by the Michigan Department of
Treasury in a mail-out notice on 27 April 1998. Requested application guidelines, program
eligibility, and submission procedures were not received from the Michigan Department of
Treasury through the Michigan Department of Management and Budget until 10 June 98.
Time Needed to Prepare Grant Application: A decision to apply under this funding release
was made after the application guidelines, program eligibility, and submission procedures were
fully reviewed. The grant funds are to support a portion of the matching requirement of local
units of government making application for U. S. Department of Justice COPS grants. Oakland
County has made such an application to the U. S. Department of Justice pursuant to Board of
Commissioners' Miscellaneous Resolution #98115.
Other Information: The next opportunity to receive Public Services Committee review of the
grant application, after the 10 June 1998 decision to make application, is at their 7 July 1998
meeting. The grant application deadline is 30 June 1998. Because the Public Services
Committee will meet after the application deadline, it is requested the application be submitted
contingent upon the subsequent review by the Public Services Committee at their next meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
Fiscal Services Division
