ISSUE
Should the City of Pueblo accept 2006 CDOT LEAF Grant on behalf of the Police
Department not to exceed the amount of $11,750.00?
RECOMMENDATION
The Department recommends approval to continue DUI enforcement efforts.
This grant application, if approved, will allow the Police Department to increase its
efforts in DUI enforcement throughout the 2006 grant year. Community awareness
efforts will continue through continued collaboration with the Pueblo DriveSmart
coalition, and the Traffic Safety for Youth task force. Additionally, the Minnequa
Merchants Association voiced concerns over alcohol related problems in the Bessemer
area. We anticipate that a continued enforcement presence will be needed to have a
long lasting impact on these problems, and LEAF funding will allow the dedication of full
time officers to DUI enforcement in the Bessemer area.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact to the City of Pueblo, as no match is required for this grant.
