RECOMMENDATION:
a) Determine that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act

Agreement and accept a $237,000 award granted to the NBPD by the OTS pursuant
to City Council Policies F-3 and F-25. To comply with City Council Policy F-3, the City
Council must formally accept the award of $237,000 and create a new appropriation
to expend the funds; and
c) Approve Budget Amendment No. 21-001 increasing NBPD revenue estimates and

DISCUSSION:
Newport Beach is an attractive locale for Orange County nightlife and routinely competes
with other cities for the most Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control licensed
establishments in the State of California (per capita). The population of Newport Beach
is approximately 87,000 residents; however, during the summer months the City
experiences an increase in daily visitors that routinely exceeds 100,000. While tourism
generates positive tax revenue for the City, it also stresses the infrastructure, the NBPD,
and other City departments.
In 2007, the first grant was requested and awarded through the OTS. Since then, the
NBPD has been dedicated to community education, traffic enforcement, and the reduction
of DUI -related collisions. The City and the NBPD continue to recognize the need for
ongoing DUI enforcement and education. The most recent data (2017) supplied by the
OTS indicates our ongoing efforts have been impactful, as the NBPD ranked in the top 2
of 106 similar -sized California cities in the category of DUI arrests.
The Newport Beach Police Department applied for, and has been awarded, a grant from
the State of California Office of Traffic Safety to increase DUI enforcement and awareness
and to fund additional traffic safety enforcement in the City of Newport Beach. Grant
number PT21193 will become effective October 1, 2020 and will expire September 30,
2021.
The grant funds will pay overtime and benefit costs for officers specifically assigned to
DUI enforcement and awareness programs, including DUI Checkpoint Operations, DUI
Saturation Patrol Operations, and Traffic Enforcement Operations related to distracted
driving, motorcycle safety, and bicycle/pedestrian enforcement. In-state travel and
training expenses are also included in the grant for officers attending the Standardized
Field Sobriety Testing (SFST), Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement
(ARIDE), and Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) training courses.
The "Know Your Limits" program is also a part of the grant this year. The "Know Your
Limits" program is a collaborative effort between the NBPD and Alcoholic Beverage
Control (ABC) licensed establishments to educate patrons about the dangers of drinking
and driving. Our NBPD personnel visit local alcohol -licensed establishments and provide
patrons with voluntary breath tests in order to educate them on their blood alcohol
concentration, thereby allowing patrons to "Know Your Limit" before they consider driving
after consuming alcohol.
Almost all DUI efforts involve overtime, as they are unique and short-term assignments
that do not involve personnel scheduled to work a regular patrol assignment. In other
words, we retain the same number of officers on regularly scheduled patrol while
additional officers are added for the sole purpose of conducting OTS grant -funded DUI
enforcement at no additional cost to the City.

and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA

Schedule A
1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
The City of Newport Beach is a unique and dynamic community located along the scenic coastline of
Southern California. The city and surrounding areas are deeply rooted in history. In the early 20th century,
Newport Beach was home to celebrities such as John Wayne, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, and
Shirley Temple. At approximately 51 square miles, including areas of water, Newport Beach consists of
rugged coastline, inland waterways, and has a diverse mix of commerce, tourism, and distinct residential
communities.
Newport Beach is a hot spot for Orange County nightlife and routinely competes against other cities for the
most Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control licensed establishments in the State of California (per
capita). The population of Newport Beach is approximately 86,000 residents; however, during the summer
months the city experiences an increase in daily visitors that routinely exceeds 100,000 per day. While the
tourism generates a positive tax revenue for the city, it also stresses the infrastructure and city departments,
including the police department.
In 2007, our first grant was requested and awarded through the Office of Traffic Safety. Since then, the
department has been dedicated to the reduction of DUI -related incidents, community education, and
enforcement. The City and Police Department continue to recognize the need for ongoing DUI education
and enforcement.
The most recent data (2017) supplied by the California Office of Traffic Safety, reveal the City of Newport
Beach to be in ranked 64 out of 106 similar -sized California cities in collision -related categories per capita. In
substance, the City of Newport Beach could noticeably improve their ranking by taking a robust approach
with grant funding directed at reducing fatal/injury collisions related to motorcyclists, bicyclists, unsafe
speed, and impaired drivers. Newport Beach markets itself as a destination location and attracts visitors
from all over the region, state, and world. The daily increase in population - including people who do not live
in Newport Beach, but come to work, shop, visit, or dine - is a component of our current rankings. To
provide ongoing education and enforcement to our residents, businesses, and visitors -- and to pursue
increased roadway safety for all users -- we will continue to utilize OTS grant funding to combat DUI alcohol,
DUI drugs, distracted driving, primary collisions factors, motorcycle -related driving violations, and
bicyclist/motorist/pedestdan-related violations.

The State and each subrecipient will comply with the Buy America requirement (23 U.S.C. 313) when
purchasing items using Federal funds. Buy America requires a State, or subrecipient, to purchase with Federal
funds only steel, iron and manufactured products produced in the United States, unless the Secretary of
Transportation determines that such domestically produced items would be inconsistent with the public interest,
that such materials are not reasonably available and of a satisfactory quality, or that inclusion of domestic
materials will increase the cost of the overall project contract by more than 25 percent. In order to use Federal
funds to purchase foreign produced items, the State must submit a waiver request that provides an adequate
basis and justification for approval by the Secretary of Transportation.
PROHIBITION ON USING GRANT FUNDS TO CHECK FOR HELMET USAGE
(applies to subrecipients as well as States)
The State and each subrecipient will not use 23 U.S.C. Chapter 4 grant funds for programs to check helmet
usage or to create checkpoints that specifically target motorcyclists.
POLICY ON SEAT BELT USE
In accordance with Executive Order 13043, Increasing Seat Belt Use in the United States, dated April 16, 1997,
the Grantee is encouraged to adopt and enforce on-the-job seat belt use policies and programs for its
employees when operating company-owned, rented, or personally -owned vehicles. The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is responsible for providing leadership and guidance in support of this
Presidential initiative. For information and resources on traffic safety programs and policies for employers,
please contact the Network of Employers for Traffic Safety (NETS), a public-private partnership dedicated to
improving the traffic safety practices of employers and employees. You can download information on seat belt
programs, costs of motor vehicle crashes to employers, and other traffic safety initiatives at
www.trafficsafety.org. The NHTSA website (www.nhtsa.gov) also provides information on statistics, campaigns,
and program evaluations and references.
POLICY ON BANNING TEXT MESSAGING WHILE DRIVING
In accordance with Executive Order 13513, Federal Leadership On Reducing Text Messaging While Driving,
and DOT Order 3902.10, Text Messaging While Driving, States are encouraged to adopt and enforce
workplace safety policies to decrease crashes caused by distracted driving, including policies to ban text
messaging while driving company-owned or rented vehicles, Government-owned, leased or rented vehicles, or
privately -owned vehicles when on official Government business or when performing any work on or behalf of
the Government. States are also encouraged to conduct workplace safety initiatives in a manner commensurate
with the size of the business, such as establishment of new rules and programs or re-evaluation of existing
programs to prohibit text messaging while driving, and education, awareness, and other outreach to employees
about the safety risks associated with texting while driving.
