SUBJECT: Request for Measure BP Funding — Community Service
Officer Positions (2), with Associated Equipment for
Deployment; and One (1) Pick -Up Truck for the Community
Outreach Resource and Engagement (CORE) Team
SUMMARY
Public safety in the City is entrusted to the Police Department (PD). PD employs patrol police officers primarily
to provide public safety services to the community. PD also has community service officers (CSO) in its
personnel roster to deploy for security needs that do not require a patrol police officer, such as park security.
Due to lack of funding, two (2) CSO positions are frozen. This Request for Funding is to provide the funds for
the two CSO positions.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the SOC:
1. Approve $348,124 in Measure BP Funding for Fiscal Year 2025-26 for the Community Service Officer
program and the CORE Team, broken down as follows:
• $146,736 — Salaries for two (2) CSO positions ($73,368 annual salary per position)
• $ 51,358 — Benefits for two (2) CSO positions ($25,679 annual benefits per position)
• $ 2,930 — Uniforms and equipment for two (2) CSO positions ($1,465 per position)
• $ 20,000 — Annual Lease of two (2) Pickup Trucks for CSO's (2 trucks at $10,000 p/yr)
• $ 15,000 — Annual Lease of one (1) Pick-up Truck for CORE Team (1 truck at $15,000 p/yr)
• $ 5,100 — Graphics for three (3) trucks ($1,700 per truck)
$ 75,000 — After Market Accessories for 3 Trucks ($25,000 per vehicle)
Subtotal: $316,124
• Contingency at 1.0%: $32,000
Total: $348,124
2. Approve $198,094 per year plus annual escalation for salary and benefits for the two (2) CSO positions
in subsequent fiscal years.
3. Approve $35,000 per year plus annual escalation for salary and benefits for the three (3) Pick-up Trucks
in subsequent fiscal years.
Investment Opportunity Category: Public Safety
Subcategories: Community Policing and Equipment
Requestor: Police Department
Dollar Amount Requested: $348,124 for FY 25/26
Page 1 / 2
FISCAL IMPACT
The projected fund balance of the Measure BP Fund as of March 31, 2025, is $10.25 million excluding interest,
more than adequate to cover the request for funding of FY 25/26 is $348,124.
Regular funding for the Police Department is primarily provided by the General Fund. The General Fund is
currently at a deficit. Without the support by Measure BP, the CSO program would not move forward.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Over the last three years, PD has been optimizing its organization to be more responsive and effective to the
public safety needs of the community. The formation of the CORE Team with two patrol officers assigned to
address public safety matters related to homelessness is one example.
Similarly, PD proposes to utilize the deployment of LSO's to address relatively minor public safety matters
where the intervention and participation by the police department is important but does not necessitate the
deployment of a patrol police officer, instead a CSO would respond to such situations, in a more effective
manner, and without encumbering the availability of a patrol police officer.
Such would be the case for security needs at and around the city parks and plazas, where a large number of the
public and city employees gather for multiple community programs and activities, but are often lacking security
protection for any incident that may occur. Given that patrol police officers are patrolling the entire city on any
given time, they are not necessarily able to respond when the need arises. The CSO's would be assigned the
parks security as their first priority.

SUBJECT: SUBMITTAL OF FUNDING PROPOSAL FOR THE MEASURE
BP STAKEHOLDERS OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE (SOC) FOR
A COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICER PROGRAM.
SUMMARY
The Police Department is requesting to submit a funding proposal for the Stakeholder Oversight
Committee's (SOC) consideration. The proposal seeks to enhance the Department's community policing

approximately $236,024, for salary, benefits and vehicle lease payments in subsequent years.
• Two (2) Community Service Officer positions
• Two (2) 2025/2026 Mid -Sized Pickup trucks outfitted with after -market equipment (AME)

BACKGROUND
The Baldwin Park Police Department currently has two sworn police officers assigned to the Community
Outreach Resource and Engagement (CORE) team. These officers focus on quality -of -life issues such as
homelessness, resource allocation, and mental health within our community. The CORE team takes a
people -first approach while enhancing communication, building trust, providing invaluable resources to
individuals in need, and creating meaningful contacts throughout the community.
The CORE team utilizes specialized communication skills to empathize and provide resources they have
developed along with outside agencies. Their partnerships include the Los Angeles Centers for Alcohol
and Drug Abuse (LACADA), the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the Los Angeles
County Department of Mental Health (DMH), multiple housing facilities throughout Los Angeles County,
community members, local businesses, and local non-profit organizations.
A key goal of the CORE team is to determine the underlying circumstances causing homelessness. The
officers have attended specialized training to identify and address traumatic events that often lead to
homelessness. The team has successfully reunified several homeless individuals with family members and
facilitated housing placements through their network of resources.
In addition to addressing homelessness, the CORE team focuses on mental health issues. Officers have
attended over 100 hours of mental health -related training to provide the community with the necessary
tools and resources. These include identifying local care facilities, developing wellness plans, and
providing basic necessities to those in need.
The current vehicle used by the CORE bureau is a 2005 Chevy 2500 with over 1.26,000 miles that is
already on its second transmission. A new vehicle is essential to support their continued outreach efforts
throughout the community, as they transport individuals to service providers in addition to removing
unsightly debris from encampments.
Role of Community Service Officers
Community Service Officers are non -sworn, non -peace officer personnel who perform a variety of non-
hazardous support duties within the Police Department. These positions will enhance the Department's
ability to respond to community needs while allowing sworn officers to focus on higher priority and
emergency calls for service.
CSOs will perform duties including but not limited to:
• Providing visible uniform presence at City parks and public spaces as a crime deterrent in addition
to enhancing community outreach
• Investigating quality of life complaints and initiating nuisance abatement investigations
• Taking crime reports when no suspect is present
• Investigating selected traffic collisions and other non -emergency incidents
• Assisting with missing person cases, property crimes, and providing referral services
• Enforcing parking regulations and identifying abandoned vehicles
• Collecting evidence according to established procedures
• Conducting Neighborhood Watch and crime prevention programs
• Providing front -counter support and public assistance
Benefits to the Department and Community
Funding these positions and vehicles will significantly benefit both the Police Department and the
Baldwin Park community.
1. Enhanced Community Engagement: CSOs will serve as additional points of contact between the
Department and the community, building positive relationships and trust.
2. Improved Response Times: By handling non -emergency calls and administrative duties, CSOs
will enable sworn officers to focus on higher -priority calls, improving overall response times.
3. Cost -Effective Staffing: CSOs provide professional police services at a lower cost than sworn
officers, maximizing the Department's operational efficiency and expanding service delivery.
4. Proactive Problem -Solving: CSOs will address quality -of -life issues and minor offenses that
impact community well-being but may not always receive immediate attention from patrol
officers.
5. Force Multiplier for CORE Efforts: The CSOs will act as a force multiplier for the CORE team,
specifically focusing on park presence and quality of life issues. This will allow the CORE officers
to maintain their focus on homeless outreach and mental health concerns while expanding the
department's overall capacity to address community needs.
6. Career Development Pipeline: The CSO program can serve as a recruitment tool for future sworn
officers, allowing individuals to gain experience and understanding of law enforcement operations
Vehicle and Equipment Justification
The Mid -Sized Pickup Trucks vehicles are necessary to ensure CSOs can effectively patrol throughout the
city and its parks, respond to non -emergency calls, and transport equipment if needed. These vehicles
were selected based on availability and appropriate specifications for the CSO duties. The vehicles will be
equipped with non -emergency light bars, department graphics, mobile data computers, and
communication equipment to ensure CSOs can effectively document incidents, access department
resources, and maintain contact with dispatch.
The new Full -Sized pickup truck for the CORE Bureau is critically needed to replace their current 2005
Chevy 2500, which has over 126,000 miles and is already on its second transmission. The CORE officers
require a reliable vehicle that can transport outreach supplies, equipment for encampment cleanups, and
resources for homeless individuals. The current vehicle's age and condition pose significant reliability
concerns that could compromise the team's ability to respond to community needs.
Body -worn cameras and in -car video systems are essential for documentation, evidence collection, and
maintaining professional standards. These systems align with modern policing best practices and enhance
transparency in interactions with the public and are currently in use by the Department.
Alignment with Measure BP Objectives
This proposal aligns directly with Measure BP's goal of enhancing public safety and providing services
that benefit Baldwin Park residents. By investing in Community Service Officers, the funds will:
• Improve public safety and quality of life through increased presence in parks and public spaces
• Provide a cost-effective enhancement to police services without requiring the higher costs
associated with sworn officer positions
• Support a sustainable public safety model that maximizes resources
• Create additional employment opportunities within the community
CONCLUSION
The Community Service Officer program represents a prudent investment of Measure BP funds that will
yield significant and sustainable benefits for public safety in Baldwin Park. The program enhances the
Police Department's capacity to serve the community while providing cost-effective solutions to
addressing quality -of -life issues and non -emergency calls for service.
