SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution to accept the one year grant award totaling $50,000 from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC).
BACKGROUND
The San Leandro Police Department has a public safety need for funding to conduct inspections and targeted enforcement of alcohol-related violations at the 186 local alcohol-related establishments (bars, stores and markets). The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) offers grant funding for these types of law enforcement needs. The grant was approved for $50,000 to support a program and associated staff time to manage the enforcement efforts. A portion of the funds will be used for educational purposes to reduce youth and underage access to purchasing alcohol, as well as to provide alcohol sales and access training to all the ABC licensed establishments in San Leandro.
Fiscal Impact
The acceptance of the grant will not impact the General Fund. If approved, the City will receive $50,000 to provide funding for inspections and targeted enforcement of alcohol-related establishments in San Leandro and expenditures will be captured in special revenue account 150-21-048.
