DISCUSSION The Police Department acts as the fiscal agent for various law enforcement programs which are funded through various State and Federal agencies. As the fiscal agent, the Police Department hires and provides salary and benefits for positions which are normally considered separate from existing City staffing. These positions are designated as "FA" (Fiscal Agent) in the title description. Four positions are requested to be added to the authorized count of the Police Grant Fund to support the San Diego Law Enforcement Coordination Center (SDLECC). The SDLECC serves as the regional intelligence fusion center for San Diego and Imperial counties. Fusion Centers are focal points for the receipt, analysis, gathering, and sharing of threat-related information between the federal government and state, local, tribal, and private sector partners. These four new positions (FA Director of SD LECC, FA LECC IT Manager and 2 FA Analysts) are fully reimbursed by grant funds, along with a 4% administrative fee for acting as the fiscal agent. FA Director of SD LECC The FA Director of SDLECC provides expert guidance and assistance in planning, directing and coordinating overall intelligence programs, employing extensive specialized training, experience and knowledge in the field of criminal investigation and an expert knowledge of intelligence systems, dissemination and techniques. This position evaluates and analyzes the SDLECC progress toward meeting identified objectives, and establishes guidelines, priorities, and management systems for the day-to-day administration and operations of the center. hi addition, the SDLECC Director participates in the development, implementation, and evaluation of strategic and operational plans; and serves as liaison to, and maintains effective working relationships with, Federal, State and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. This position is funded by High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) grant funds. FA LECC IT Manager The FA LECC IT Manager manages the Information Technology (IT) unit of the SDLECC. This position executes the information technology strategies and policies and ensures proper functioning of the center's network and related information processing systems. The LECC IT Manager determines systems needs and any hardware/software acquisitions required to accomplish business objectives. This position is funded by the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP). FA Analysts Two FA Analyst positions are requested to be added to support SDLECC operations. The SDLECC is increasing the level of analytical support to local, state, and federal law 4-2 01/15/2013 Item Page 3 of 4 enforcement agencies by approximately 20% annually and requires these additional analysts to insure continued improvement of services. The analysts will be collecting and analyzing narcotic and other crimes intelligence information using various databases, in order to assist local, state, and federal law enforcement officers in their criminal investigations. These two analyst positions are funded by the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP). DECISION MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site specific and consequently the 500-foot rule found in California Code of Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision. Staff is not independently aware, nor has staff been informed by any City Councilmember, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT Approval of Resolution A will result in the amendment of the compensation schedule and classification plan to reflect the title change of the CBAG Director of SDLECC to FA Director of SDLECC and the change in annual compensation for the FA Director of SDLECC to $140,225 at E Step. Per HIDTA (High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area) policy, this position is tied to the Federal General Schedule (GS) Salary Table. Additionally, approval of Resolution A will result in the amendment of the compensation schedule and classification plan to add the classification of FA LECC IT Manager. This new classification is an at-will position and will be eliminated if grant funding ends. The FA LECC IT Manager will be assigned to the Mid-Manager Unclassified (MMUC) group. The E-Step bi-weekly salary for the FA LECC IT Manager will be $3,740.02. Approval of Resolution B will result in the appropriation of $169,950 to the personnel services category of the Police Grant Fund budget for the addition of one FA Director of SDLECC, one FA LECC IT Manager, and two FA Analysts to the authorized position count of the Police Grant Fund. The Department anticipates filling these positions in February 2013. These personnel costs are fully reimbursed by HIDTA and homeland security grant funds, and the City receives a 4% administrative fee for acting as the fiscal intermediary for these positions. Because of the 4% administrative fee, there is a positive impact of $6,798 to the General Fund this fiscal year. Approval of the Ordinance will amend Chula Vista Municipal Code 2.05.010 to reflect the title change of CBAG Director of SDLECC to FA Director of SDLECC and the addition of FA LECC IT Manager. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT The ongoing annual costs for the four positions are approximately $482,000. These personnel costs are fully reimbursed by the HIDTA and homeland security grant funds, and the City receives a 4% administrative fee for acting as the fiscal intermediary for these positions. Because of the 4% administrative fee, there will be a positive impact of approximately $19,280 to the General Fund each fiscal year. If HIDTA or homeland security grants no longer fund these positions, then they will be eliminated. 4-3 01/15/2013 Item Page 4 of 4 ATTACHMENTS None. Prepared by.
