PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION

Ordinance provided authorized staffing for Fiscal Year 2024.
On July 8, 2024, Ordinance No.10733 was approved by City Council. The Ordinance

BACKGROUND:
The Police Department requests the addition of a full-time position to perform
management and coordination of the Community Initiative to Reduce Violence (CIRV)
Program. The new classification title will be Community Initiative to Reduce Violence
(CIRV) Program Manager. This position will provide primary management of a new
program designed to develop and strengthen partnerships between community
resources and law enforcement partners to reduce juvenile crime in the Pueblo
community.
The Community Initiative to Reduce Violence (CIRV) Program will consist of
interdependent work groups across local government, law enforcement, academic,
corporate, health and non-profit sectors. The program structure is designed to
implement a collaborative, integrated approach to preventing violent crime and criminal
activity of youth populations. As an employee of the Pueblo Police Department, the
civilian position will be responsible for identifying appropriate participants and partners
for CIRV, outreach and collaboration, data gathering and analysis, working with
partners to define and highlight the problem of youth violence, gang activities and
prevention techniques developing and executing a CIRV workplan including
meaningful, relevant projects, sourcing of sustainable funding for the program beyond
2025 and grant compliance activities.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The accepted grant allotted a total of $131,660 in funding for the position. This will
