REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From:Grant Yates, City Manager
Prepared by: Nicole Dailey, Senior Management Analyst
Date:October 24, 2017
Subject:Amendment No. 1 – Agreement for Law Enforcement Services with County
of Riverside
Recommendation
Authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment to expand the City’s level of service to
include an additional Deputy Sheriff Community Patrol Officer in such final form as approved by
the City Attorney.
Background
The County of Riverside Sheriff’s Department has been providing the City of Lake Elsinore with
law enforcement services for many years. The current agreement covers the period of
July 1, 2016, through June 30, 2020.
Since 2010, the City’s overall level of service for law enforcement has essentially remained the
same due to budget constraints and the rising costs for services. In recent years, the City has
experienced an increase in quality of life concerns due to legislative changes that have limited
law enforcement’s ability to hold people in jail resulting in a growing homeless population
throughout California.
The City, like many jurisdictions throughout the state, has had to find ways to address an
increase in homeless activity that has subsequently led to an increase in citizen complaints and
calls for service for code enforcement and law enforcement. These calls for service include
complaints regarding public feedings, panhandling/solicitation, thefts, assaults, trespassing and
debris located at homeless encampments.
Since early 2014, the City and the Lake Elsinore Police Department have taken a proactive
approach in dealing with homeless activity and the effect it has on the overall quality of life for
our residents and businesses. Key areas of success include addressing public feedings in City
Park and partnering with property owners to quickly and effectively break up and clean up
homeless encampments.
In May 2017, the City Council authorized the creation of a Homeless Task Force of staff and
community stakeholders eager to join the City in its efforts to reduce homelessness.

Discussion
To tackle many of these quality of life issues taking place in the City and to assist staff in
engaging the community, it was determined that additional staffing support was needed. Staff
discussed these needs among the Police Department and we agreed it would be advantageous,
overall, for the City to add an additional sworn officer to serve as a Community Patrol Officer
that could also perform enforcement services when needed. Proposed duties for this position
include, but are not limited to the following tasks:
Engage and collaborate with the community and city related to quality of life issues
including homelessness, neighborhood watch, and crime free programs.
Plan, coordinate and attend meetings as a representative for the City and Police
Department.
Work closely with the business community to promote and reinforce the programs
and resources available to empower the business community to address crime and
quality of life concerns.
Conduct presentations for community groups, as requested, regarding quality of life
issues, programs and successes.
Gather information and conduct research on potential initiatives and new programs
for consideration by the city.
Collect, analyze and share data related to quality of life issues.
Organize and participate in special events as directed by the city and/or the Police
Department such as National Night Out.
Serve as a liaison between the City and Police Department regarding new programs,
municipal codes and enforcement efforts.
Manage the Lake Elsinore Sheriff Station’s Facebook page to promote the Station’s
successes and encourage community engagement.
Develop and maintain positive working relationships with the community, businesses,
and city staff.
Going out into the community with Code Enforcement for quality of life sweeps
related to encampment clean-ups and/or municipal code enforcement sweeps.
This position will serve as a much-needed liaison between the City and the Police Department
on a variety of issues related to improving the safety and overall quality of life in Lake Elsinore.
Staff believes this dedicated resource will be invaluable to the City for existing and future
programs that require law enforcement input, support and authority. Examples include
Homelessness, Crime Free Programs, Neighborhood Watch, and Code Enforcement Sweeps.
Amendment No. 1 (Exhibit A) expands our levels of service to include an additional Deputy
Sheriff Community Patrol Officer through June 30, 2020, at the Unsupported Dedicated
Compensated rate of approximately $170,000 per year. This position can be used for other
needs in future years, such as patrol, should the City’s needs change.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department has already begun taking the steps necessary to
add this new position, if approved, to fill the position for the City as soon as possible.

Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact is approximately $170,000 and will be reflected in the City’s operating budget
annually during the term of the agreement. Any necessary changes for Fiscal Year 2017/2018
will be made as the mid-year review, however, due to existing vacancy of a community service
officer position and based upon historical actual costs, we believe the cost will be within the
existing appropriation.
