SCOPE OF WORK
summary
The Riverside Police Department (RPD) has enriched its organizational structure over the years. The five-year Strategic Plan provides an opportunity for the police department to redefine the organizational direction and purpose, identify issues and set priorities, focus resources on specific target areas, and establish accountability for achieving goals. The department recognizes the importance of involving the community to help combat crime and increase the quality of police services. RPD is a team-enforcement oriented agency that combines a close partnership with the community and a policy of enforcement oriented police work to build a stronger and safer city. The department is comprised of 341 sworn police employees and 185 civilian employees serving a population of approximately 317,261 (2021 Census).
The administrative staff consists of the Police Chief, 2 Deputy Chiefs, 4 Captains, 18 Lieutenants, and a civilian manager assisting the Chief of Police. The department divisions include the Chief's Office, Community Services Bureau, Support Services, Administrative Services, Aviation, Communications, Field Operations, and Investigations.
The City of Riverside represents a diverse community. According to the 2021 United States Census Bureau, the city's demographic estimates reported are: White -27.6%, Hispanic or Latino 54.9%, Some Other Race - 0.54%, Asian- 8.8%, Black or African American- 5.9%, American Indian/Alaska Native -
0.8%, Two or More Races - 10.%, and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander - 0.4%. Riverside is the largest city in the county of Riverside. The city has the largest number of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) licenses, consisting of 339 on-sale retail licenses and 196 off-sale retail licenses, totaling 535 active licensed establishments. The Riverside Police Department is requesting $99,983 in grant funding to increase educational efforts and enforcement activity in managing ABC-related problems and incorporating ABC-related issues in our community-policing model.
Project Personnel
The Riverside Police Department Vice Unit, which is part of the Special Investigations Bureau, will be responsible for the ABC APP grant project. This division is responsible for investigating a variety of public offenses to include but not limited to;
Illegal gambling operations.
Prostitution, pimping, and/or pandering, to include acts (alleged or otherwise) of human/sex/labor trafficking.
Cases involving the procurement of underage children for the purposes of sex (and other related offenses).
Complaints of lewd acts in public (various municipal and penal codes).
Compliance with licensing related to both tobacco and alcohol sales, with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) being the point of contact for tobacco related activities.
The Vice Unit is comprised of Lieutenant Steve Goodson with 23 years of law enforcement experience, Sergeant Chad Collopy with 23 years of experience, Detective William Uriarte with 22 years of experience, Detective Brian Haskell with 17 years of experience and Detective Lori Blaszak with 17 years of experience.

The Grant will further be monitored by Brandi Becker, Police Administrator, who has 20+ years of grant and administrative experience.
SCOPE OF WORK
Problem Statement
Alcohol is the most commonly used and abused drug among youth in the United States (CDC, 2021).
The 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey found that among high school students during the past 30 days, 29% drank alcohol, 14% bing drank, 5% drove after drinking, and 17% rode with a driver who had drank.
Underage drinking is a causal factor in a host of serious problems, including homicide, suicide, traumatic injury, drowning, and alcohol poisoning. Riverside has a large student population with nine high schools, four continuation high schools, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs High School. Riverside also has four internationally recognized universities and colleges: University of California, Riverside, California Baptist University, La Sierra University, and Riverside City College.
The combined high school and college student population is approximately 84,400. The city continues to have several problem areas as a result of the 535 active licensed establishments. Some of these licensees are located in concentrated areas adjacent to the downtown area, universities, and housing occupied by students. Riverside is divided into four Neighborhood Policing Centers: North, East, West, and Central; however, three areas are of concern. The University of California resides in East Riverside with approximately 26,847 students. Addressing and reducing underage and young adult alcohol issues is one of the major goals of the Riverside Police Department.
The downtown area had several ABC licensed premises congregated within the Downtown Entertainment District (DED). From January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022, DED received 9,921 calls for service; over 200 of those calls were related to alcohol consumption alone. In the past, resources have been directed to calls for service, rather than proactive enforcement necessary to impact problematic premises. Calls for service for these establishments are still high, and many are related to serious violent crimes such as Homicide, Rape, Robbery and Aggravated Assault.
SCOPE OF WORK
Project Description section 1 of 2
Continued enforcement, inspections, and training will help to reduce the crime and incidents associated with these locations. Previously, the Riverside Police Department and the Department of Alcohol and Beverage Control's investigations have been focused on disorderly licensed establishments. The Vice Unit, in collaboration with the Downtown Entertainment District Task Force (DED), will continue to work closely with ABC investigators to pro actively address and expand their enforcement efforts in the area of use and sales of illegal activity in and around on-sale licensed establishments.
The focus will be on problematic establishments that may be suspected of allowing illegal transactions.
The Vice Unit proposes to maintain working full-time with the DED Task Force to conduct surveillance, initiate special projects, and develop productive relationships with business owners and other stakeholders to address operating conditions. Due to the vast experience of the DED Task Force and their established Intel, the inclusion of the unit will be extremely important for disorderly licensed Attorney's Office, which has been willing to prosecute all viable ABC-related cases referred by the Vice Unit. We are requesting OTS grant funding to continue our efforts of enforcement through IMPACT Inspections, Minor Decoy, Trap Door, Shoulder Tap, Drunk Decoy, LEADS and general enforcement programs.
This will allow the department to continue enforcement to address the issue of underage and young adult alcohol use. Between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2022, there were 1,294 DUl arrests in the City of Riverside. During this same time frame, there were 22 alcohol-related fatal collisions. Additionally, RPD held 82 DUl saturation operations, resulting in 69 arrests. It is our belief that the continued and consistent operations in targeting problematic ABC licensed establishments will help to reduce further alcohol-related incidents and save lives.
SCOPE OF WORK
Project Description section 2 of 2
Sustained funding from the Office of Traffic Safety has allowed for enforcements concentrated in DUI saturation patrols and checkpoints. Riverside Police Department has obtained additional funding that will assist in the intervention approach to reduce underage drinking. The California Highway Patrol Every 15 Minute grant will provide funds to conduct a two-day program focusing on teenagers and challenging them to think about drinking, driving and personal safety. The combination of deterring adults from purchasing alcohol for minors, reducing licensees from selling to minors, and implementing school-based prevention programs will help to reduce the problems that accompany alcohol use by young people. The Riverside Police Department is dedicated to assisting the ABC Riverside office, which currently has only two agents assigned to the area. ABC has provided an abundance of knowledge and guidance in handling licensing-related issues. The assigned ABC agent has stated that RPD did an exceptional job with some of the highest statistics in the county. Due to our experience, RPD would like to continue this collaboration and make a significant impact in addressing alcohol-related problems.
The goals and objectives of this project are to fund and sustain operations and programs that will aid in reducing youths engaging in underage alcohol use.
A. Maintain close working relationships with the ABC District Office and the Riverside Police Department.
1. Meet with ABC District Office monthly to identify disruptive and disorderly licensed premises or when our assistance could be beneficial during special event enforcements.
2. Notify ABC District Office of all DUl checkpoints scheduled in the city. We have also applied for future grant funding to conduct additional checkpoints for the 2021-22 fiscal year. The Selective Traffic Enforcement Program provides funding for checkpoints and DUI saturation patrols within the city and county to reduce alcohol-involved fatalities and raise general public awareness regarding the problems associated with drinking and driving.
3. Continue providing a direct routing system to get all alcohol-related police reports to ABC.
B. Increase enforcement strategies to identify target problem areas.
1. Conduct 10 IMPACT inspections during the grant period, contacting between 10-12 ABC licensed facilities during each inspection, to educate.and ensure compliance with State and local laws.
2. Continue monthly joint Riverside Police Department Vice/ABC Investigator collaboration to focus on specific problematic ABC licensees as a result of IMPACT inspections.
3. In conjunction with ABC, conduct 4 Trap Door programs at various bars in the downtown area. The downtown area saw an increase in crimes related to public intoxication, robberies, and assaults. From January 1, 2020 to February 28, 2022, DED received 10, 158 calls for service; close to 1,000 of those calls were, in some capacity, related to alcohol consumption alone.
4. Conduct General enforcement that includes alcohol-related violations related to public consumption in and around on-sale and off-sale licensed ABC establishments.
C. Address underage alcohol issues using ABC Special Programs.
1. Conduct 12 Minor Decoy program operations during the program period to check whether licensees are selling alcohol to minors.
2. Conduct 3 Shoulder Tap operations during the program period to solicit persons to purchase and furnish minors with alcoholic beverages.
3. Conduct 17 General Enforcement Operations in collaboration with the Downtown Entertainment
SCOPE OF WORK
Additional Information
District Task force to address issues with over-serving of alcohol and underage drinking at on-sale licensed establishments. This will also include alcohol-related violations related to underage drinking and public consumption in and around city parks, school zones and off-sale licensed establishments.
4. Work closely with ABC on implementing the TRACE program by notifying ABC of any incident involving underage drinking that result in death or serious injury so that ABC can conduct an investigation to determine where the alcoholic beverage was acquired, purchased, or severed.
D. Continued training and educational efforts.
1. Conduct in-depth ABC training for all RPD patrol and traffic officers, and Vice and Narcotics personnel. In addition, conduct quarterly Vice/ ABC training for RPD personnel on alcohol-related issues, state laws, response and reporting requirements.
2. Conduct 2 LEADS training events for our local ABC licensed establishments.
3. Provide Roll Call training during normal working hours.
In summary, the Riverside Police Department is proposing to address underage drinking and combat alcohol-related crimes by IMPACT inspections, continued Minor Decoy and Shoulder Tap operations, General Enforcement operations, Drunk Decoy operations and Trap Door programs. RPD will also enhance their efforts by conducting undercover surveillance and investigation for alcohol- related disturbances and crimes in and around licensed locations. An integral component of the proposal includes training officers and the community (LEADS training) on alcoholic beverage control education, prevention, and enforcement measures. Finally, maintaining excellent communications and collaboration with the local ABC investigator will be a key element in a successful program.
