ENCLOGUfiEs- 1
The City Attorney has been requested to prepare an appropriate resolution to
authorize the City Manager to apply for three Grants from the Law .Enforcement
Assistance Administration (L. E. A. A. ). The three Grants are as follows:
Threshold Program for Public Service Aides III
Community Evaluation of Police Program Effectiveness II (CEP II)
Crime Mapping and Resource Allocation
The following is a description of these three projects which we believe will
assist the Police Department in being a more effective law enforcement agency.
THRESHOLD PROGRAM FOR PUBLIC SERVICE AIDES III_
This project is a continuation of an existing grant that is designed to increase
participation of young people and minorities within the Miami Police Department.
Public Service Aides are recruited from among young people who qualify for
police service except for their age. They are assigned to handle the more
routine requests for service that police departments are called upon to provide
its citizenry. This activity frees the line police officer to perform a more
active role in crirne prevention and control.

COMMUNITY EVALUATION OF POLICE PROGRAM EFFECTIVENESS II (CEP II)
The second year of the project will foster the design of an "evaluative sensing
mechanism" which will provide the City of Miami Police Department with
community feedback on operating police programs. By developing and utilizing
obtrusive and unobtrusive research techniques, the project will poll the public
knowledge, and involvement in, police sponsored programs.
