Schedule A
Napa Police Department
The Grantor determined awards and adjustments based on the Project’s merit, operational scale, compliance with the Request for Application (RFA), and program regulations. Certain activities or budget items proposed in Schedule A may have been deemed ineligible for funding. The final, binding list of authorized activities and expenses is set forth in Schedule B - Detailed Budget Estimate.
Project Description
The City of Napa proposes to us Cannabis Tax Fund Grant (CTFG) funding to increase our ability to detect, investigate and prosecute drug and alcohol impaired drivers. We will accomplish these goals by (1) increasing the knowledge of our officers in drug impaired DUI enforcement, alcohol DUI enforcement and cannabis DUI enforcement. (2) Increasing the hours of specialized high visibility enforcement (HVE) and adding (3) a dedicated DUI Enforcement SUV and DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle.
We will use CTFG funds to send four ARIDE/DRE trained officers/sergeants/lieutenants to the annual California Narcotic Officer’s Association Annual Training Institute, International Association of Chief’s of Police Traffic Safety Conference, and one Traffic Bureau Sergeant to the Lifesaver’s conference.
For enforcement efforts, we have found flexible saturation patrols to be very effective in increasing the visibility and number of hours specially trained officers are patrolling our streets for impaired drivers.
A DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle will be a specially marked van with all the tools and space needed to conduct SFST, ARIDE and DRE evaluations. The van will be conspicuously labeled as a deterrent to DUI driving. The van will be equipped with lighting and an awning to be able to conduct evaluations in all weather.
Inside the van, there will be an interview area with dark room capability for Drugged driving evaluations. The van will be equipped with our DRE equipment (blood pressure, thermometer, etc.), Evidentiary Breath Machine, Alcohol PAS, Oral Fluid Screening device, and blood draw kits.
Finally, we will use funding to conduct additional DUI Checkpoints.
Problem Statement
The City of Napa has a history of high DUI incidents, with cannabis-related impairment playing a growing role in traffic collisions, injuries, and fatalities. The proliferation of cannabis dispensaries and increased availability of cannabis products have contributed to a rise in drivers operating vehicles under the influence. Napa has 9 licensed cannabis dispensaries in the city and 1018 retail liquor licenses in the county. Cannabis billboards can now be found on our only freeway (SR 29). Napa’s vibrant tourism industry further complicates enforcement efforts, as visitors unfamiliar with the region may drive impaired.
In 2022 the public works department commissioned a Local Roadway Safety Plan (LRSP). The plan analyzed data from 2016 to 2020 and found DUI collisions made up 20% of all Fatal and Severe injury collisions. The report recommends additional DUI detection and enforcement. Since the LRSP was issued in 2020, DUI driving continues to be a significant problem for all roadway users in Napa. Information from UC Berkeley’s Transportation Injury Mapping System shows about 15% of all collisions are DUI related (1997 to 2024). This is higher than the statewide average of 11%. In 2025, Napa recorded 40 DUI-related collisions, with 1 attributed to drug impairment. Additionally, officers arrested 195 drivers for DUI. 17 of those arrests involved drug use. DUI arrests and crashes remained relatively steady from 2024.
Most of our DUI arrests can be attributed to a small number of officers in the department. DUI detections and investigations can be time consuming and complex, especially when a search warrant is required for testing.
Drug impaired driving evaluations, especially DRE evaluations, are even more complex requiring a secure dark environment, blood pressure, temperature and extensive interviews. DRE evaluations often require multiple transports to the police station and then to the jail, adding another layer of complication.
Officers with specialized training and equipment, assigned specifically to DUI detection have been found to have higher detection and arrest rates for DUI. We have seen success in recruiting more officers to work DUI patrol by providing advanced DUI training and DUI enforcement vehicles. The department currently has 3 DRE-certified officers. We expect an additional 2 officers to complete the DRE training by the end of 2026.
In summary, the City of Napa suffers from a higher-than-average impaired driving problem resulting in unnecessary injuries and deaths. Our hours spent on specialized enforcement for impaired driving is Schedule A
increasing. The Napa Police Department has the capacity to continue this increase and lower impaired driving, but needs equipment, training, and overtime funding that only the CTFP can provide.
P
erformance Measures/Scope of Work (Proposed Solution)
Training
1. S
end 4 ARIDE/DRE trained officers/sergeants to the California Narcotic Officers' Association Annual Training Institute November 20th-24th, 2026. (Q1 = 0, Q2 = 4, Q3 = 0, Q4 = 0) Aim is to increase knowledge of drug impairment, drug trends and expert knowledge for court. Officers/sergeants should return more c
onfident in their expertise and refocused on drug impaired driving. www.cnoa.org/ati. The measurable goal is increasing drug impaired driving evaluations by 10%.
2. S
end 4 ARIDE/DRE trained officers/sergeants to the International Association of Chiefs of Police Impaired Driving and Traffic Safety Conference, August 21-23, 2026, in Anaheim, CA. (Q1 = 4, Q2 = 0, Q3 = 0, Q4 = 0) Aim is to increase knowledge of DUI detection, DUI trends and expert knowledge for court. Officers shoul d r
eturn more confident in their expertise and refocused on DUI enforcement. The IACP IDTS was previously the Drug Recognition Annual Training conference. This is the premier advanced training for DRE's and Impaired driving enforcement nationwide. This training is not available anywhere else. www.theiacp.org/IDTSconference. The measurable goal is increasing drug impaired driving evaluations by 10%.
3. S
end 1 Traffic Bureau Sergeant to the Lifesaver's Conference on Traffic Safety March 7-9,2027 in San A
ntonio, Tx. (Q1 = 0, Q2 = 0, Q3 = 1, Q4 = 0) Aim is to increase knowledge of best practices across the country in impaired driving, trends in traffic safety and technology to address impaired driving. Sergeant should return with strategic information for future planning. The Lifesavers conference is one of the largest gatherings of traffic safety professionals across the country. Representatives from NH TSA, State Traffic Safety Offices, Law Enforcement, Educators and Engineers. This invaluable training is not available any
where else. www.lifesaversconference.org. The measurable goal is to identify procedures and equipment to
DUI Enforcement Activities
1. Flexible DUI Saturation patrols. Provide multiple 4-10 hour shifts with multiple Sergeants and Officers when trained officers are available for a total of 390 saturation patrol hours over the course of the grant (Q1 = 97, Q2 =97, Q3 = 98, Q4 = 98). The goal is to have one to two high visibility enforcement patrols each week, but due to staffing challenges we are unable to fill them consistently. Occasionally, Officers and Sergeants may have to shorten planned operations due to unforeseen staffing needs (sick calls, minimum staffing, etc.) resulting in less than a 4-hour saturation patrol.
Being flexible will allow us to provide the same number of dedicated impaired driving enforcements that we can with more restrictive planning. This may allow us to increase our impaired driving enforcement, visibility and overall deterrence by having flexible deployments. This will provide several benefits. It will allow officers time to focus on DUI enforcement, building their skills and confidence. The patrols bring attention to other officers who may dedicate additional discretionary time to DUI detection. The public will also see DUI patrols more frequently. The cars will be equipped with "DUI ENFORCEMENT" markings during DUI patrols to further the deterrent effect.
Saturation officers will log all stops, SFST s and arrests. Our aim is to reduce DUI collisions or prevent DUI collisions from increasing (41 in 2025)
2. Conduct 2 alternative DUI/DL Checkpoint Deployments (Low Staffing, Phantom, and Roving) (Q1 = 0, Q2 = 0, Q3 = 1, Q4 = 1). Checkpoint includes pre and post detail publicity. Napa PD will count each car that is screened in the checkpoint and all drivers contacted in secondary. Information regarding the number of DUI arrests and other violations would be documented and reported. Aim is to reduce DUI collisions or prevent DUI collisions from increasing (41 in 2025).
The effectiveness of this performance will be measured by the number of DUI/DUID related collisions and the number of DUI/DUID drivers arrested during this grant period compared to the number of DUI/DUID drivers arrested during the same time from one year prior. It is the hope of the Napa Police Department to reduce the Schedule A
number of DUI/DUID related arrests and collisions by a minimum of 10% during this grant period compared to last year (July 2025-June 2026).
Note: Phantom Checkpoints are also referred to as “Flexible Checkpoints” or “Mock Checkpoints.” This strategy involves setting up but not fully staffing a checkpoint or stopping vehicles on the line, rather it gives the appearance of a checkpoint adding a deterrent. Phantom checkpoints can be set up in addition to a low staffing checkpoint or a full checkpoint to increase the deterrent effect. NHTSA found no adverse effects and potential positive effects of using these types of checkpoints when they were used by the Illinois State Police in 2017. Determining the Effectiveness of Flexible Checkpoints (nhtsa.gov)
Roving Checkpoints or also referred to as Highly Mobile Sobriety Checkpoints involves setting up a low staffing checkpoints for a shorter time (1 to 2 hours) at a location, then moving the low staffing checkpoint to another location. This was used effectively by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department and highlighted in the NHTSA publication, “CREATING IMPAIRED DRIVING GENERAL DETERRENCE: EIGHT CASE STUDIES OF SUSTAINED, HIGH VISIBILITY, IMPAIRED-DRIVING ENFORCEMENT. EXAMINING
SUSTAINED, HIGH VISIBILITY, IMPAIRED DRIVING, GENERAL DETERRENCE, ENFORCEMENT STRATEGIES (nhtsa.gov).
Both Phantom Checkpoints and Roving Checkpoints are not supported by OTS current funding. They can be used in conjunction with each other such as identifying several phantom locations for the evening and setting up cones, signage, and cars at each location. The checkpoint team can then move to each location for several hours. When the checkpoint team moves on, the location becomes a phantom checkpoint. Due to increased call volume and expanding jurisdiction, our department faces challenges in effectively patrolling our community. This grant application seeks funding to purchase a new patrol vehicle specifically for impaired driving enforcement to improve officer response times, enhance community presence, and ensure the safety of both officers and the public. With this grant funding, Napa PD intends to utilize these alternative options for greater deterrent to DUI.
Equipment
1 Marked DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle (Q1 = Purchase, Q2 = Receive, Q2-Q4 = Use to complete DUI Saturation patrols, DUI Checkpoints and extra patrols) will be a specially marked van with all the tools and space needed to conduct SFST, ARIDE and DRE evaluations. The van will be conspicuously labeled as a deterrent to DUI driving. The van will be equipped with lighting and an awning to be able to conduct evaluations in all weather. Inside the van, there will be an interview area with dark room capability for Drugged driving evaluations. The van will be equipped with our DRE equipment (blood pressure, thermometer, etc.), Evidentiary Breath Machine, Alcohol PAS, Oral Fluid Screening device, and blood draw kits. The vehicle will have a computer, printer and internet to allow blood draw warrants to be completed quickly.
The van will allow us to conduct drugged driving in the field without transporting the suspected drugged driver to the police station for evaluation. The suspect and officer can conduct the evaluation and evidentiary testing at roadside, greatly decreasing the time it takes the evaluator to be out of service. The DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle will be deployed during DUI saturation patrols, checkpoints and community events. The DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle will also be featured on social media posts for prevention efforts.
We have identified vendors who are prepared to deliver a fully outfitted DUI Testing and Evaluation vehicle within the grant period. This goal will be easily measured by the Napa Police Department obtaining the vehicle and putting it on the road to be used. The goal of this vehicle is to decrease the time of DRE evaluations by an average of 30 minutes by providing a mobile evaluation area.
1 Marked Electric DUI Enforcement SUV (Q1 = Purchase, Q2 = Receive, Q2-Q4 = Use to complete DUI Saturation patrols, DUI Checkpoints and extra patrols): We will utilize the new police vehicle would be used primarily for DUI enforcement activities, DUI/DL Checkpoints, and transportation to and from DUI related trainings. This vehicle will be marked with "DUI Enforcement” decals to indicate the primary use of the vehicle.
We have often found a lack of available vehicles for impaired driving details.
This vehicle would be reserved for use by officers who are conducting CTFG activities, removing impaired drivers from the roads. When this vehicle is not used for these specific activities, it will be used by members of Schedule A
the Napa Police Department's Traffic Bureau whose regular function is to conduct traffic enforcement activities, identify and arrest drivers driving under the influence of alcohol and/or cannabis, as well as investigate collisions. The vehicle may be also used by trained DRE or ARIDE trained personnel but only during periods where no CTFG operation is being conducted and it is not being utilized by the Traffic Bureau officers during the grant cycle. (1st priority for CTFG grant activities, 2nd for Traffic Bureau members, 3 for patrol officers who are DRE or ARIDE trained)
We have identified vendors who are prepared to deliver a fully outfitted patrol SUV 90 days the date of grant approval by the City of Napa City Council. This goal will be easily measured by the Napa Police Department obtaining the vehicle and putting it on the road to be used.
Project Performance Evaluation
The Napa Police Department utilizes the Crossroads Collision reporting system and Mark 43 Records Management System. We will use the data from impaired collisions and arrests during the grant period and compare them with prior years to determine the effect and success of the programming. For all activities, we will document officer’s actions for contacts, stops, arrests, etc. These data points will be compared with prior year information from our records management system. The Napa Police Department communi cates internally with the department members and with the public through multiple channels.
Internally, a DUIBOLO is prepared each month and disseminated through email and on department digital displays. Grant objectives, results and activities would also be displayed throughout the department. Officers involved in training will conduct in-person briefings to bring back trends and information from grant-funded training.
Externally, the department utilizes pre and post press releases, Instagram and Facebook to provide information about grant activities. There is also an opportunity to receive feedback through our social media portals. The Traffic Bureau maintains a web page with contact information listed. The grant will be listed on our web page with information on impaired driving. The Traffic Bureau gives community presentations throughout the year where feedback will be solicited.
To assess the success of the program, NPD will track:
Training completion rates for IACP, CNOA, and Lifesavers training conferences.
The number of DUI arrests compared to previous years with a breakdown of drug impaired, alcohol impaired and combined impairment.
Crash data analysis to measure reductions in drug-impaired driving incidents.
Equipment use and deployment, the oral fluid device and the patrol vehicle will be tracked for use both in impaired driving enforcement and improving traffic safety.
Regular quarterly reports will be submitted to the CHP Cannabis Grants Unit, detailing enforcement efforts, training progress, and impact assessments.
Program Sustainability
Should grant funding be drastically reduced or rescinded, the Napa Police Department would have to request additional funds be allocated for enforcement activities to continue. This is dependent on City Finances and City Council.
The training and experience portion of the grant activities will continue after funding has ended. The advanced training officers receive will build confidence and expertise, which will be shared with other officers every day.
Officers conducting DUI saturation patrols or checkpoints will have opportunities to focus on DUI enforcement and build their skills. These skills and confidence will last beyond the grant period and extend to the department.
The Napa Police Department would continue to utilize the specialized DUI Testing and Evaluation Vehicle as well as the DUI patrol vehicle. We are committed to incorporating ongoing costs related to the vehicle into our budget.
