Project Title Putting the Brakes on Auto Theft
Proposal Summary The proposed grant will assist the Chula Vista Police Department to combat v ehicle theft and v ehicle accessory theft within the city. The City of Chula Vista has a population ov er 279, 000 people and unfortunately, we experience a high rate of v ehicle and accessory theft. Just in the last year, there hav e been 995 reports of v ehicle theft and approximately 180 reports of catalytic conv erter theft in the city. W ith the assistance of this grant and the tools we will utilize, we will be able to take a proactiv e approach at lowering the amount of v ehicle and accessory theft occurring. This will prov ide a positiv e impact to the community.

Project Need The City of Chula Vista is located on the southern end of San Diego County, approximately four miles north of the U. S. / Mexican border.
The city is 52 square miles, ranging from the coast of the San Diego Bay, to the inland mountains. According to the US Census, we hav e a population of ov er 279, 000 people and are the second largest city in San Diego County, fifteenth largest city in the State of California.
The Chula Vista Police Department currently only has 250 sworn officers, which is one of the lowest officers to resident ratio per capita in the entire state. Just like most police agencies in the state, attaining the amount of police officers needed is getting harder to accomplish. In this newer era of policing, we need to utilize the ev er- growing amount of technology av ailable to help proactiv ely stop crime from occurring and prev ent residents of the community from being v ictimized. W ith this proposal, we will be seeking to use one of those forms of technology to help combat v ehicle theft.
The City of Chula Vista experiences a high rate of v ehicle theft and v ehicle accessory theft each year. Unfortunately, the amount of the thefts has been increasing year ov er year. The Chula Vista Police Department' s Research, Crime, and Intelligence Analysis Unit ( RCIA) obtained crime data ov er the past fiv e years, from the calendar year 2018 to present. Since 2018, we hav e had 4, 224 v ehicle thefts. This is an av erage of 768 v ehicle thefts per year.
Vehicle thefts hav e been steadily increasing each year. Between 2018- 2022, there was an av erage increase of 8. 5% in v ehicle theft each year. So far in 2023, there hav e been 434 reported v ehicle thefts. Based on the current figures, it is expected that there will be approximately 1, 042 v ehicle theft cases by the end of 2023. This is a whole 20% increase just from the 2022 calendar year.
Regarding recov eries of stolen v ehicles, between 2018 and 2022, the av erage recov ery rate has only been 63. 6%. In fact, the rate of stolen v ehicle recov eries has been decreasing since 2021. This causes a significant impact on the residents of the community. Most of the v ehicles stolen are not high- end expensiv e v ehicles, nor are they all fully insured. At times, the v ehicles stolen are the families only source of transportation they rely on for work or for their families.
According to the US Census, 9. 1% of the city’ s residents liv e at the pov erty lev el. Unfortunately, when their v ehicles are stolen, it creates a tremendous financial hardship and ev en more so when their v ehicle is not recov ered.
Another factor we consider is the clearance rate of the v ehicle theft inv estigations. As prev iously mentioned, there hav e been 4, 224 v ehicle thefts in the past fiv e years. During that same time period, there hav e only been 373 arrests for v ehicle thefts. This is only an
8. 8% clearance rate, meaning most v ehicle thiev es are not being found or held accountable for their actions. To further break these numbers down, 146 of those v ehicle theft arrests were made by Chula Vista Police officers while the suspects were inside stolen v ehicles originally reported stolen to other jurisdictions. This means in ov er fiv e years, Chula Vista Police officers hav e only been able to locate and arrest 150 suspects for v ehicles stolen within our own city. This is only a 3. 6% clearance arrest rate from our own cases.
One of the biggest v ehicle accessory theft problems we hav e in Chula Vista is catalytic conv erter theft. The top three v ehicles hav ing their catalytic conv erters stolen in our city are Ford trucks, Toyota Prius, and Honda Accords. These three top v ehicles are also some of the most common types of v ehicles found throughout Chula Vista.
Catalytic conv erter theft really started becoming an issue in Chula Vista in 2019. Since then, we hav e had a total of 494 catalytic conv erter thefts. These thefts hav e been increasing steadily since 2020. More specifically, between 2020 and 2021, there was a 292. 9% increase in catalytic conv erter thefts. This year alone, we are currently at 94 catalytic conv erter thefts. Based on the current trend, it is expected that there will be approximately 226 catalytic conv erter thefts by the end of the year. This would be a 31% increase just from year 2022. Unfortunately, the clearance rate for arrests of catalytic conv erter thiev es is almost non- existent.
W e hav e been employing public education on catalytic conv erter theft and we hav e been offering engrav ing v ehicle identification numbers for our residents on their catalytic conv erters, howev er the theft trend is continuing grow. It is expected to continue as the precious metals found inside the catalytic conv erters are priced v ery high, making it v ery lucrativ e for the thiev es. It also only takes catalytic conv erter thiev es a matter of minutes to remov e them, and they are v ictimizing multiple people ev ery night. The av erage cost to replace a catalytic conv erter is $ 2, 500, and a lot of people’ s insurance do not cov er this. Not only does it create a hardship for the v ictims not being able to use their v ehicle, it also creates a financial hardship for hav ing to replace the catalytic conv erter.
Recently, the Chula Vista Police Department' s Property Crimes Unit was inv estigating a series of catalytic conv erter thefts. It is v ery common for a crew of suspects to come from outside the San Diego region to commit these thefts. In sev eral of our thefts, a v ehicle description and license plate were obtained. W ith this information, and with what we will be requesting technology wise with this grant, would immediately alert officers when the v ehicle enters the city. This would hav e prev ented numerous v ictims from hav ing their catalytic conv erters stolen.
The problem of v ehicle theft and v ehicle accessory theft impacts the entire City of Chula Vista, not just a specific region. W ith this grant, we will be able to help locate stolen v ehicles and more importantly, arrest v ehicle theft suspects so they stop v ictimizing the residents of Chula Vista. W e will also be able to take a proactiv e approach to this issue by using new technology and utilizing that actionable ev idence to stop thefts of v ehicles and catalytic conv erters.
Project Description After prev iously explaining the consistent and ev er- growing increase of v ehicle theft and v ehicle theft accessories, specifically catalytic conv erters, we hav e come up with some projects that will show a significant impact on enforcement and lower the amount of people being v ictimized. There are multiple tools to be utilized and activ ities that can be implored to help accomplish this.
The first project that will hav e the most significant impact on both v ehicle theft and v ehicle accessory theft is the use of License Plate Reader ( LPR) cameras. The goal of this would to be to promote community safety, solv e crime, reduce crime, and be transparent with the community about the use.
In order to effectiv ely deploy the license plate readers, we hav e come up with the following strategies. W e would cov er all the ingress and egress points throughout the entire city, cov er all of the ‘ hot spots’ where crime occurs within the city, consider all of the major intersections, and work with traffic engineering on all of the traffic patterns on the major roads and thoroughfares.
The department has already researched the implementation of LPR cameras and hav e looked into the benefits of different companies and different methods of use. The first consideration was whether to own the dev ice outright or to do a subscription with the company.
Another consideration was the contract length and amount it would cost to start this project.
After taking all this into account, the department determined the use of LPR cameras from the company named Flock was the best fit to address the areas of project need. Some highlights as to why Flock was the best choice to achiev e these goals were that they were solar and battery operated, it has a simple easy user interface, it is subscription based, it is CJIS compliant, it has a 97% license plate reading accuracy rate, and they hav e a public facing information page with real time updating to stay transparent with ev eryone about the use. Flock also handles all the PRA requests and information regarding the use of the LPR cameras.
After taking into consideration the locations of the LPR camera placement, we are seeking to install 150 cameras throughout the entire city. This will cov er ev ery major intersection and all ingress and egress points in the city. There is no certain area in the city that has more LPR cameras than another. The point is not to target any specific community, but rather the stolen v ehicles trav eling through a certain area or to target specific suspect v ehicles driv ing through the v arious parts of the city.
Another benefit of the LPR cameras will be to inv estigate organized retail theft suspects. Frequently, license plates of v ehicles used during the commission of the crimes are identified and prov ided during the inv estigativ e process. Utilizing the LPR cameras, we will be able to locate the organized retail theft suspect v ehicles, determine direction of trav el, and if they remain within with the city, stop and arrest them for their crimes.
Recently, LPR cameras were used to solv e an organized retail theft inv estigation. Detectiv es identified a suspect responsible for stealing ov er $ 40, 000 in clothing from v arious retailers throughout San Diego County. During one of the Chula Vista thefts, the license plate from the suspect’ s v ehicle was obtained as they fled the scene. Utilizing an LPR camera from the City of San Diego, the v ehicle was located at an address in their city. The suspect was identified and later arrested.
The assistance of the LPR cameras was the critical piece of the inv estigation to locate and apprehend a chronic organized retail theft suspect.
It will cost $ 350 to install each Flock LPR camera onto an existing pole. There are added costs for Flock Security to install their own poles, howev er we plan on installing these LPR cameras on already installed traffic light poles. The total cost to install all 150 cameras is 52, 500. This includes a warranty to cov er all technical issues, camera malfunction, and any hardware issues.
The subscription cost for each Flock LPR camera is $ 3, 000. This includes the camera hardware, solar power, mounting equipment, the prev iously mentioned warranty, cloud hosting and LTE connectiv ity, unlimited user licenses, hotlist integration & alerts, and ongoing software enhancements. This ov erall yearly subscription cost for all 150 cameras will be $ 450, 000.
Flock also allows for integration into existing traffic camera software.
W ith the integration into these cameras, it allows for the possibility for liv e streaming, playback with pause, fast- forward, rewind, and up to a 30- day retention time. The added cost to do this integration and use the enhanced software capabilities, is $ 1, 500 per camera, per year. Currently, the city has nine existing traffic cameras capable of allowing this integration but are hopeful to increase that to a total of
21. The ov erall yearly cost for this added benefit is $ 13, 500 at the current state, and up to $ 31, 500 if all this product is added to the 21 additional proposed traffic cameras once they are all installed.
The following will be the cost for all Flock LPR cameras to be used to support the project need. The subscription cost of $ 450, 000 per year x 3 years for the grant = $ 1, 350, 000. The yearly integration cost for the 21 cameras is $ 31, 500 x 3 years for the grant = $ 94, 500. Lastly there is the one- time initial $ 52, 500 installation cost. The total ov erall cost needed to fund the Flock LPR purchase is $ 1, 497, 000.
After the closeout of the grant, the police department will seek funds from the budget to continue the use of the program. After showing the benefits of how it not only helps solv e crime, but reduce crime from occurring, the city would be supportiv e of these efforts.
Another request we are making is for the creation of a position. W e would request a police officer or police agent ( our v ersion of a corporal or senior officer) to be designated specifically for the grant and be fully funded by the grant. The position would be responsible for running the grant, for being the point of contact for the Flock LPR system and would be designated as the primary v ehicle theft inv estigator. This position would be created and maintained in the Chula Vista Police Department’ s Property Crimes Unit. The Property Crimes Unit ( PCU) consists of eight full- time detectiv es and one full- time superv isor. This position for the grant will be in addition to these detectiv e positions. The benefit of adding this grant position to the PCU, will be there will be eight additional detectiv es to assist with v arious v ehicle theft and v ehicle theft accessory inv estigations since these types of crimes fall under this unit’ s prev ue.
Since the entire PCU will be leaned on to assist with more v ehicle theft and v ehicle theft accessory inv estigations, we are also requesting additional funding to cov er ov ertime costs. W ith the addition of the LPR cameras, more stolen v ehicles will be in the city, creating more time needed on inv estigations, and creating more operations to curtail the thefts and apprehending the suspects.
Ov ertime costs will also be utilized to cov er specific enforcement operations and public education in terms of catalytic conv erter theft.
Some operations we plan on doing to combat catalytic conv erter theft is targeted enforcement of known catalytic conv erter thiev es, targeting of recyclers who knowingly purchase the stolen catalytic conv erters, and enforcement of the muffler shops who are accepting the catalytic conv erters before they are being turned into the recyclers. W e also plan on some public education campaigns and public serv ice announcements. This includes educating the muffler shops of what to accept and the laws pertaining to them. This public education of said shops would be done before any enforcement operations would be planned.
Also included in the education portion is educating the general public about v ehicle thefts and v ehicle theft accessory theft. W e will continue with our campaign of engrav ing residents’ catalytic conv erters, using a program we call, ‘ Engrav e and Sav e’. W e were the first agency in the region and one of the first in the state to start this program. W e partner with v arious businesses and a local community college, to assist with putting resident’ s v ehicles up on lifts. W e then use an engrav ing tool and put the v ehicle identification number ( VIN) onto the v ehicle’ s catalytic conv erter. W e also paint the catalytic conv erters with a bright color, high heat resistant paint. This is all used as a deterrent to stop the thief from stealing them, but also as an obv ious sign to the recyclers if a catalytic conv erter is turned into them. This would be another source we could use with the ov ertime funding from the grant. The goal is to further promote more public education campaigns, which this grant will help facilitate.
One of the last project goals we would like from this grant to make this successful is obtaining additional detectiv e v ehicles. As prev iously mentioned, we hav e eight detectiv es and one superv isor assigned to the PCU, howev er we only hav e fiv e v ehicles av ailable for the detectiv es in the unit. W ith the addition of the one new position to facilitate the grant and primarily handle v ehicle theft, we need fiv e additional v ehicles.
As part of the objectiv e to arrest auto thiev es and go after those stealing catalytic conv erters, we need to be able to go in the field and watch the suspects and do field inv estigations. In order to be successful, we need to take proactiv e approaches out in the field, not reactiv e approaches from behind desks.
W hen a suspect is identified, there are numerous detectiv es needed to follow the suspects to confirm identities, locate key addresses, and most importantly, follow and arrest the suspects if they are committing crimes. If the same few detectiv es are following a suspect in our fiv e same v ehicles, their chances of being identified is v ery high. By doubling the number of v ehicles, making ev ery detectiv e in the PCU to hav e a v ehicle, the changeability and fluidity of surv eillances will be more successful.
Regarding section 2. 2, please see the attached Project W ork Plan Appendix B). Section 2. 3 was explained in the abov e paragraphs with 2. 1.
Regarding section 2. 4, the Chula Vista Police Department does not currently hav e a policy regarding the use of surv eillance technology.
Regarding section 2. 5, the Chula Vista Police Department has a policy, # 402, titled Bias- Based Policing. The policy states, “ No department member should create a call for serv ice, respond to a call for serv ice, or take any other official action when the action or call are based solely on the person’ s race, national origin, religion, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, military or v eteran status, or any other protected characteristics.” Please see the attached full policy for further.
Project
Organizational
Capacity and
Coordination
As prev iously mentioned, we will be able to administer the grant by creating a position specifically for this grant. The position will ensure the success of the grant, plan any operations, be the administrator of the Flock LPR cameras, and assist with v ehicle theft inv estigations.
The position will be at the rank of police officer or police agent, and there will be education on how to successfully run the grant. There are no requirements at this time for specific classes or training geared for this position.
This newly created position will be supplemented with eight other property crimes detectiv es and one superv isor who are already in the Property Crimes Unit ( PCU). These positions are already cov ered by the department and already handle the day to day inv estigations.
There is a v ast amount of experience in auto theft inv estigations, catalytic conv erter theft inv estigations, and planned operations in both fields, within the unit.
In addition to the day- to- y superv ision of the grant by the PCU superv isor, the management structure includes the Criminal Inv estigations Div ision lieutenant/ manager, who will prov ide ov ersight as well. The lieutenant reports to the Inv estigations Captain, who in turn reports to the Chief of Police. Ultimately, all final decisions are made by the Chief, howev er at her discretion, they can be made at the v arious lev els of superv ision. All inv olv ed parties will be kept abreast of the status of the grant, generally weekly at our command staff meetings.
W e will not be partnering with other agencies to implement this project. Howev er, due to the increased v ehicle theft cases, arrests, and workload related to v ehicle theft and accessory theft, we hav e communicated our intent of the grant with the San Diego County District Attorney’ s Office. Please see the attachment for the Local Impact Letter ( Attachment G).
W e will also be partnering with the San Diego Association of Gov ernments ( SANDAG). SANDAG will serv e as the ev aluation partner, bringing ov er 40 years of action research experience.
Further will be discussed in the Section 4.
Regarding section 3. 3, the timeline for execution once the grant is funded will start immediately. Once the grant is approv ed, the PCU will seek to recruit for the newly created position to run the grant and be the primary v ehicle theft inv estigator.
W e will also sign the agreement with Flock. The estimated timeline for the Flock project is two months. There is an initial 2 to 4 week permit approv al process needed with the City. Once the permits are approv ed, Flock will hav e all 150 cameras installed within 4- 6 weeks.
Once all the LPR cameras are installed, the system will be up and running at full capacity and ready for use.
Regarding the purchasing of additional detectiv e v ehicles, once the grant is approv ed, we will start the process of making the v ehicle purchases. Recently, there has been a nationwide delay in obtaining v ehicles due to manufacturing concerns, howev er we will start the process immediately. The ability for all detectiv es to hav e a v ehicle to go into the field and do these auto theft and organized retail theft inv estigations is crucial, so this will be a priority to secure the v ehicles needed.
W hen the grant funds expire, one of the only continuing costs will be the yearly subscription cost for the Flock LPR cameras. W e will hav e three years to plan for the added expenditure into the budget. After showing how much of a positiv e impact the LPR system will be, not only to combat v ehicle theft and organized retail theft, but for all inv estigations, the department and the City will want the program to continue. In the rare ev ent the department or city does not want to continue with the subscription serv ice, the contract would cease, and no further funds would go towards Flock for the LPR cameras.
The position created and funded for the grant will be eliminated, howev er the inv estigations of v ehicle thefts, accessory theft, and organized retail thefts will continue with the primary detectiv es assigned to the PCU. The only continued costs related to the v ehicles purchased would be the maintenance and registration.
These items would be incorporated into the general budget for funding or cov ered under a v oter approv ed City sales tax to fund v ehicles and equipment ( City of Chula Vista Measure P).
Project Evaluation
and Monitoring
SANDAG’ s Criminal Justice Research Div ision ( CJRD) will serv e as the ev aluator for this project. SANDAG has worked extensiv ely with CVPD on other grants and projects, so there is a strong partnership to build on. To ensure ongoing monitoring and quality control of proposed program implementation, as well as documenting and assessing whether the grant initiativ es are achiev ing the intended goals and outcomes, SANDAG will conduct both a process and outcome ev aluation. SANDAG ensures its ev aluation will accurately measure program goals and objectiv es by dev eloping applicable data collection tools and research timelines and protocols, all of which will be included in a Local Ev aluation Plan ( LEP).
To ensure the ev aluation portion of this grant aligns with CVPD’ s goal of decreasing organized motor v ehicle and motor v ehicle accessory theft and increasing proactiv e policing efforts through the use of new technology, SANDAG will dev elop an ev aluation plan that focuses on the key components of CVPD’ s ORT Prev ention programs. The key components that will be measured and analyzed within SANDAG’ s ev aluation will include the effectiv eness of the License Plate Reader LPR) system and the impacts of the community education efforts and the ‘ Engrav e and Sav e’ program. Crime/ arrest data will be gathered from existing crime databases ( e. g., ARJIS, CVPD), while the data related to the LPR cameras will be gathered from the LPR system and other internal data tools dev eloped by CVPD as a part of this grant programming. SANDAG will use surv eys to gauge the impact of CVPD’ s retail theft prev ention educational campaigns and their perceptions about the LPR technology. W hile the
aforementioned are planned components of the ev aluation, all data collection tools and plans necessary for the ev aluation will be finalized in collaboration with CVPD following the grant award notification.
To inform program implementation and identify any necessary midcourse adjustments, SANDAG will create and share easy- to- read data dashboards documenting up- to- date information on the impact of the LPR cameras, education initiativ es, and changes and trends in retail theft crimes/ arrests at meetings with partners. In addition to data dashboards, SANDAG will produce other project deliv erables, such as reports, that will prov ide insight into other aspects of programming.
Fidelity to model and program design is extremely important and as such, SANDAG staff will work with CVPD throughout the grant period to understand the goals, objectiv es, and expected impacts of the LPR Cameras, the ’ Engrav e and Sav e’ catalytic conv erter initiativ e, and the educational campaigns. W hen dev iations from original strategies occur, these will also be documented in addition to the reason( s) why adjustments were made.
SANDAG will work closely with CVPD to utilize existing systems whenev er possible. Some aspects of this ev aluation can utilize baseline data, such as crime data ( e. g., retail theft crimes reported to law enforcement agencies and clearance rates), while other components ( i. e., LPR data) require data collection efforts dev eloped for this grant. In either case, SANDAG will work with CVPD to establish data collection protocols and procedures early in the grant implementation phase. It is important to note that all SANDAG CJRD staff are background checked and hav e familiarity and experience with the data systems that will be used to store and transfer data for the project.
A mixed- method design will be employed to measure the impacts of the program and changes ov er time in crime and law enforcement actions by tracking the number and location of cameras installed and specific outcomes such as plates read, v ehicles identified, inv estigations launched, arrests, etc. Similar methods will be used to gauge the impact of the ‘ Engrav e and Sav e’ program ( i. e., catalytic conv erter painting and engrav ings). The impacts of educational campaigns will be measured based on the reach of content, knowledge gained, and participant satisfaction. Descriptiv e, bi- v ariate, and multi- v ariate analyses will be conducted to describe the population impacted by v ehicle and v ehicle accessory thefts, demonstrate trends in related crime/ arrest rates ( e. g., motor v ehicle theft, property crime rates ov erall), identify factors predictiv e of lowering v ehicle and v ehicle accessory theft rates and determine the efficacy of education initiativ es.

The necessity of overtime is what helps make this grant successful. Most criminals do not work 7am-5pm like most detectives, so the need to conduct operations after hours to follow suspects and build cases is needed. The amount requested 1,500 hours for nine detectives and 300 hours for one supervisor, span over three years) for overtime accounts for approximately 10 hours of overtime per detective and supervisor. A standard operation is 4-5 hours and in order to be successful, have a minimum of five detectives and one supervisor. In addition to these operations, we will also host bi-monthly ‘Engrave and Save’ catalytic converter events as well as other public education campaigns. Most of these events occur on weekends and evenings, which again falls outside a detectives normal work hours.

Subject: Organized Retail Theft Prevention Grant Program The proposed grant will assist the Chula Vista Police Department combat vehicle and accessory theft within the city. The City of Chula Vista has a population of over 279, 000 people, and unfortunately, we experience a high rate of vehicle and accessory theff. In the last year, there have been 995 reports of vehicle theft and approximately 180 reports of catalytic converter theft in the city. Most of these thefts occur in the lower socioeconomic areas of our community. These areas are more densely populated with fewer security measures. Simply put, more cars are parked on the street in a smaller geographic area without the benefit of gated communities or other security measures, increasing the likelihood of the vehicle being targeted.
In lower socioeconomic communities, families rely more on a single vehicle and depend on that vehicle to get to work. Also, in lower socioeconomic neighborhoods, these vehicles are typically underinsured, and the cost to replace the car or the vehicle accessory is too expensive for families to bear and can' t afford to replace the vehicle.
With the assistance of this grant and the tools we will utilize, we can take a proactive approach to lowering the amount of vehicle and accessory theff occurring in these areas and other parts of the community. This program will use a two- pronged approach to address this issue. It will use technology and education of the public to reduce this type of theff. Our agency is continually reaching out to the public via social media and hosting catalytic converter " Engrave and Save" events that positively impact on the community. The grant will further support this endeavor.
We define the positive impact on the community as deterring organized criminals from targeting Chula Vista citizens' vehicles and reducing the number of victims of this particular Cnme.
Using advanced technology to identify the vehicles driven by suspects into or away from the community, law enforcement can develop more actionable leads and better identify series- related crimes. Identifying these suspects will lead to more closed cases and more cases referred to the San Diego County District Attorney' s Office for prosecution. Although there will be an increase in referred cases to the DA' s Office, we confirmed it is well- positioned to evaluate these cases and prosecute them. Their agency has divisions within their organization 315 Fourth Avenue, MS P- 200, Chula Vista, CA 91910 www. chulavistapd. org 619- 691- 5150 fax ( 619) 476- 2427 Chula Vista Police Department Organized Retail Theft Prevention Grant Local In' ipact Letter
to prosecute these cases specifically. Our agency has a strong working relationship with the DA' s Office, which supports us in obtaining the grant for this purpose.
The evidence from technology and other physical evidence will provide prosecutors with the most significant proof to support more convictions, longer custody sentences, and potentially fewer victims over time.
Career criminals will avoid communities with this technology to reduce their risk of apprehension and prosecution in organized vehicle and vehicle accessory theTt cases.
Sincerely,
