Schedule A
City of Santa Rosa 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 Santa Rosa Police Department proposes to enhance its impaired-driving enforcement efforts through targeted DUI saturation patrols and DUI checkpoints funded by the Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program. The project is designed to reduce cannabis and alcohol impaired driving incidents and improve overall roadway safety within the City of Santa Rosa. Grant funds will support the acquisition of a traffic enforcement truck and a DUI trailer, which will increase operational efficiency, visibility, and deployment capacity during enforcement operations. These resources will strengthen the Department’s ability to conduct sustained, data- driven DUI enforcement activities and support safer travel for residents, commuters, and visitors.
Problem Statement
The City of Santa Rosa, located approximately 55 miles north of San Francisco, is the largest city between San Francisco and Portland, Oregon and serves as a regional hub for commerce, education, and healthcare.
Incorporated in 1868, Santa Rosa is home to approximately 176,000 residents and is served by the Santa Rosa Police Department (SRPD), which employs 175 sworn officers and 74 civilian staff. In recent years, SRPD has experienced reductions in both sworn and civilian staffing due to citywide budgetary constraints, placing increased demands on limited public safety resources and impacting the Department’s ability to sustain proactive traffic safety enforcement.
SRPD provides law enforcement services across approximately 40 square miles divided into nine patrol zones and operates through three primary divisions—Field Services, Special Services, and Technical Services—supported by an Administrative Division. The City includes 45 public and private schools (elementary through high school), two major hospitals, including a designated trauma center, and is intersected by two major highways that divide the city into four geographic quadrants. These major transportation corridors generate significant commuter and regional traffic, contributing to complex traffic patterns and increased enforcement demands.
Santa Rosa has a diverse population, with approximately 59% White, 29% Hispanic, 6% Black, and 13% identifying as interracial. A significant portion of the Hispanic population resides in the western region of the city, which also includes lower-income neighborhoods, multiple Section 8 housing developments, and a high concentration of individuals experiencing homelessness. The City estimates approximately 1,500 individuals experiencing homelessness, primarily located in the downtown corridor and western portions of Santa Rosa.
These factors increase pedestrian and vehicular interactions and present additional traffic safety challenges, particularly in high-volume corridors and densely populated areas.
Traffic safety remains a critical public safety concern in the City of Santa Rosa. Since January 1, 2025, the Santa Rosa Police Department has documented approximately 1,089 traffic collisions. Speed is the leading Primary Crash Factor, followed by unsafe turning movements and driving under the influence (DUI). Of these collisions, 197 were attributed to speeding, 183 to unsafe turning, and 167 to DUI as the primary contributing factor. DUI-related collisions accounted for a significant portion of traffic crashes citywide, reinforcing impaired driving as a persistent and ongoing public safety concern. These DUI collisions and arrests include drivers impaired by alcohol, cannabis, and other drugs, reflecting the continued impact of drug- impaired driving on roadway safety within Santa Rosa.
During the same period (January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025), SRPD officers issued 1,899 speeding citations, 255 red-light violation citations, 2,358 cell phone citations, and 974 unsafe turning citations. Additionally, officers made 627 DUI arrests, underscoring the prevalence of impaired driving and the need for sustained, high-visibility enforcement and deterrence efforts.
Since October 2022, SRPD has significantly increased traffic enforcement efforts citywide, resulting in a measurable reduction in overall traffic collisions. In the prior year, the City recorded one fatal traffic collision.
However, in 2025, SRPD investigated six fatal traffic collisions, two of which involved DUI drivers. Despite Schedule A
these challenges, SRPD maintains a zero-tolerance approach to impaired driving. During grant-funded operations alone, officers made 103 DUI arrests, demonstrating the effectiveness of focused and visible enforcement strategies in reducing impaired driving behaviors.
Due to staffing reductions and competing public safety demands, SRPD’s ability to sustain enhanced DUI enforcement operations is limited without external funding support. Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program funding would allow SRPD to enhance and expand targeted DUI and drug- impaired driving enforcement efforts beyond existing capacity, rather than supplant current resources. Continued funding is critical to sustaining proven enforcement strategies, increasing deterrence, and further reducing serious injury and fatal traffic collisions within the City of Santa Rosa.
Performance Measures/Scope of Work (Proposed Solution)
Grant funds will support enhanced impaired-driving enforcement through high visibility DUI saturation patrols and DUI checkpoints, as well as the acquisition of essential enforcement equipment, including one traffic enforcement truck and one DUI trailer. The Santa Rosa Police Department (SRPD) will monitor project performance through documented enforcement activity, arrest data, and public outreach efforts. The assigned Grant Manager will oversee all project activities to ensure compliance with grant requirements, timelines, and reporting obligations.
Goal 1: Enhance DUI and Drug-Impaired Driving Enforcement
Objective 1: Conduct DUI Saturation Patrols and DUI Checkpoints
Activity: SRPD will conduct a total of 24 DUI saturation patrols and six DUI checkpoints during the grant performance period. Saturation patrols will be deployed in identified high-risk areas based on collision, DUI arrest, and crash data analysis.
• DUI Saturation Patrols: Six saturation patrols will be conducted per quarter, totaling 24 annually. Each operation will deploy four officers working eight hour shifts focused on identifying and apprehending alcohol- and drug-impaired drivers.
• DUI Checkpoints: Two DUI checkpoints will be conducted per quarter, totaling six annually. Each checkpoint will be staffed by twelve officers, two sergeants, one dispatcher, one records technician, and one field and evidence technician, each working eight-hour shifts to ensure operational efficiency, officer safety, and compliance with legal requirements.
Timeline:
Quarterly (Q1–Q4)
Measurements:
1. Number of DUI saturation patrols and DUI checkpoints conducted
2. Number of DUI/DUID arrests resulting from grant-funded operations
3. A targeted reduction of at least 5% in DUI-related traffic collisions during the grant performance period
Goal 2: Improve Operational Capacity Through Equipment Acquisition
Objective 1: Procure and Deploy a Traffic Enforcement Truck and DUI Trailer
Activity: SRPD will purchase one traffic enforcement truck and one DUI trailer to support DUI saturation patrols, DUI checkpoints, and crash investigations. The existing traffic truck, placed into service in 2008, is increasingly unreliable and no longer sufficient to support sustained DUI enforcement operations. The new traffic truck is required to safely tow and deploy the DUI trailer, which will enhance checkpoint visibility, improve officer safety, and increase operational efficiency.
Timeline:
• Q1: Initiate procurement process
• Q2: Receive and outfit the traffic truck and DUI trailer with required equipment Schedule A
• Q3–Q4: Deploy the truck and trailer for DUI checkpoints, saturation patrols, and traffic collision investigations (If equipment is received earlier, deployment will begin immediately.)
Measurements:
1. Successful procurement and deployment of the traffic truck and DUI trailer
2. Number of DUI checkpoints and enforcement operations supported by the equipment
Goal 3: Increase Public Awareness and Deterrence Through Education and Outreach
Objective 1: Promote DUI Enforcement Through Public Information Efforts
Activity: SRPD will issue four public press releases, one per quarter, coordinated with DUI saturation patrols and checkpoints. These releases will inform the public of upcoming or recent enforcement efforts, highlight the dangers of alcohol- and drug-impaired driving, and reinforce the deterrent effect of high-visibility enforcement.
Timeline:
Quarterly (Q1–Q4)
Measurements:
1. Number of press releases issued
2. Public engagement metrics, including media coverage and social media reach or shares
Project Performance Evaluation
The effectiveness and community impact of the project will be evaluated using a comprehensive approach that captures both quantitative and qualitative data. The assigned Grant Manager will be responsible for collecting, reviewing, and analyzing all project related data throughout the grant performance period to ensure alignment with approved goals, objectives, and Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program requirements.
Quantitative Evaluation Methods will include tracking enforcement and operational outcomes associated with grant-funded activities. Key performance indicators will include, but are not limited to:
• Number of DUI saturation patrols conducted
• Number of DUI checkpoints conducted
• Number of DUI/DUID arrests resulting from grant-funded operations • Number of citations issued during enforcement activities • DUI-related traffic collisions and trends during the grant period • Deployment and utilization of the traffic enforcement truck and DUI trailer in support of enforcement operations
These data points will be reviewed quarterly to measure progress toward project objectives, including the targeted reduction in DUI related collisions and increased enforcement visibility.
Qualitative Evaluation Methods will include officer feedback, operational assessments, and community response to enforcement and outreach efforts. Supervisors and participating personnel will provide input regarding the effectiveness of saturation patrols, checkpoint operations, and the use of the DUI trailer and traffic truck in improving efficiency, safety, and visibility. Public response and engagement, including media coverage and community feedback, will also be considered when evaluating overall project impact.
At the conclusion of each quarter, the Grant Manager will conduct a review of all collected data to determine whether project goals and objectives are being met, exceeded, or require modification. This ongoing evaluation process allows SRPD to make data-driven adjustments to enforcement strategies as needed to maximize effectiveness.
Communication of Project Results will occur through regular internal and external reporting. Internally, project outcomes will be shared with SRPD Lieutenant and project supervisors to inform operational planning and Schedule A
resource deployment. Externally, results will be communicated through required CHP progress reports, as well as public facing methods such as press releases, department social media platforms, and other media outlets to inform the community of enforcement efforts and outcomes. This transparent communication approach reinforces public awareness, supports deterrence, and demonstrates the positive impact of grant funded DUI enforcement on community safety.
Program Sustainability
SRPD is committed to sustaining long term traffic safety benefits achieved through the CHP Program, even if future grant funding becomes unavailable or is significantly reduced. While grant funds will support expanded DUI enforcement during the project period, SRPD will integrate enforcement, equipment use, partnerships, and education into ongoing department operations.
The traffic enforcement truck and DUI trailer purchased through this grant are long -term assets that will remain in service well beyond the grant period. These resources will continue to support DUI checkpoints, saturation patrols, and traffic collision response as part of SRPD’s regular traffic safety operations. Retaining this equipment ensures SRPD can continue high visibility DUI enforcement, even if the frequency of operations must be reduced due to funding constraints.
Following the grant period, SRPD will incorporate DUI enforcement into routine patrol and traffic unit deployments as staffing allows. Although dedicated overtime operations may decrease, impaired driving enforcement will remain a priority within existing patrol assignments and traffic safety initiatives.
Due to current City budget constraints, SRPD will pursue alternative state and federal traffic safety grants to support future DUI enforcement. The department will also continue coordinating with regional law enforcement partners on joint operations to share resources and maintain visibility.
Through continued enforcement, partnerships, and public education, SRPD aims to foster a long term culture of traffic safety and impaired driving deterrence, reducing DUI related crashes and reliance on future grant funding.
Administrative Support
This program has robust administrative support, and every effort will be made to continue the grant activities after its conclusion. The Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program will be led by a team of experienced professionals at the Santa Rosa Police Department (SRPD). The program will be overseen by a Lieutenant and Sergeant from the Traffic Division, who will ensure the successful implementation and management of grant operations. The program's effectiveness will be further enhanced by the involvement of two Cr ime Analysts, who will provide crucial data analysis to identify specific demographic and geographic areas within the community that require targeted intervention for traffic safety issues. Additionally, SRPD will benefit from the oversight of an Administrative Analyst and an Administrative Services Officer, both of whom will ensure comprehensive management of the department's budget. This includes maintaining strict compliance, monitoring, and reporting related to the grant's financial and operational activities.

Total estimated cost: $60,000
Grant funds are requested to purchase one DUI enforcement trailer to support high- visibility DUI and drug-impaired driving checkpoints conducted under this project. The trailer will provide essential equipment storage, lighting, signage, and operational space needed to safely and efficiently conduct DUI checkpoint operations.
The DUI trailer will enhance officer safety, improve traffic control, and increase the visibility of enforcement activities, strengthening the deterrent effect of checkpoints. It will be towed by the traffic enforcement truck requested in this grant and deployed specifically for DUI checkpoints and related traffic safety operations.
This equipment will expand SRPD’s ability to conduct effective, organized, and highly visible impaired- driving enforcement and will remain in service beyond the grant period, supporting long- term traffic safety and DUI deterrence efforts.
