AGENDA REPORT
SUBJECT: DRAFT OPERATIONAL AGREEMENT FOR NORTH ORANGE COUNTY PUBLIC
SAFETY COLLABORATIVE
FISCAL
IMPACT: EXPENSE: $ 239,000
REVENUE: $ 239,000
SUMMARY:
The City of Placentia is a member of the North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative. The Collaborative has requested that member cities seek approval of the draft version of an Operational Agreement for the Collaborative. Given the substantial work that has been completed thus far on the parameters of the draft Operational Agreement, it is expected that any changes by member cities would be non -substantive in nature. It is recommended that the City Council approve the Operational Agreement in its draft form so that it may receive final circulation among member cities. The City expects to receive $239,000 from its participation in the Collaborative, for the period covering September 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Approve the Draft Operational Agreement for the North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative; and
2. Authorize Staff to make non -substantive modifications to the Agreement, if needed, and the City Administrator to execute the necessary documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney.
STRATEGIC PLAN STATEMENT:
This item conforms to Strategic Plan Goal 2, Ensure that Public Safety Continues to be a High Priority, Objective No. 2, Consider sharing of services to other cities.

DISCUSSION:
The California Board of State and Community Corrections has provided $8 million to the North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative for the period covering September 1, 2023, to June 30, 2026. The following cities belong to the Collaborative: Anaheim, Brea (Fiscal Agent for Collaborative), Buena Park, Cypress, Fullerton, La Habra, La Palma, Orange, Placentia, Stanton, and Yorba Linda.
As an act of the California Legislature (Assembly Bill 97, Ting), the North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative was initially established in 2017. AB 97 allowed the Collaborative to spend state funds to address youth violence prevention and intervention in K-12 schools, enhance successful reentry of offenders into the community and address homeless outreach and intervention efforts.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Placentia expects to receive $239,000 for its participation related to the current work being conducted by the Collaborative. Of this amount, $139,000 will be used for the Homeless Liaison Officer's (HLO) salary/benefits. The HLO will dedicate two (2) days per week at the HOPE Center. The remaining $100,000 will be used in the Investigations Division for salary/benefits and supplies related to gang suppression efforts.
