ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING PROBLEMS) In April 2005, the City Of Lubbock completed an upgrade of its Public Safety Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS). The new CAD and RMS required a hardware upgrade to the City Of Lubbock Mobile Data System (MDS). The MDS upgrade replaced 250(+) text -based mobile data terminals with ruggedized laptop computers. The MDS hardware upgrade did not include any components of the radio -frequency (RF) data communications infrastructure. A 2003 COPS Technology Grant partially funded the MDS hardware upgrade. Both the Public Safety Computer System and MDS hardware upgrades were completed concurrently. The new MDS, thru the new CAD, allows officers to communicate with the Lubbock Police Communications Center, for a variety of police functions. This includes routine and emergent dispatching of citizen calls for service, reviewing public safety data, external checks for wanted persons or stolen vehicles, and voiceless communication. While these various police functions are now more enhanced, the current RF data communications infrastructure limits the amount of information that can be effectively received and/or transferred to the field officer's laptop computer. These limits impact the ability to efficiently utilize all of the current technology available to the field officer. The new RMS allows an officer to enter police reports, view previous police reports, and access a variety of databases in the Police Records system. The new CAD allows the officer to use graphics, digital mapping, digital photographs, and a variety of Global Positioning (GPS) and Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) technologies. As with any major technology upgrade, Lubbock faces a major obstacle in relation to funding. This RF data communications infrastructure upgrade is very expensive. The 2005 COPS Technology Grant is a key funding ingredient. This funding will assist the City Of Lubbock's efforts to upgrade the RF data communications infrastructure. This effort will further ensure a positive path in future municipal policing efforts. B. PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The City Of Lubbock has identified a critical need for upgrading its RF data communications infrastructure: This upgrade will allow the City Of Lubbock to implement a project to provide a wireless data communications infrastructure that will facilitate the use of our available mobile data technology. The City Of Lubbock desires the fastest and most reliable wireless data communications infrastructure available. Currently available wireless communications infrastructure components will allow the City Of Lubbock to successfully integrate and utilize the new CAD, RMS, and MDS systems, as outlined in the problem assessment. C.IMPLEMENTATION PLAN 1. Application Phase — Ongoing 2. Application Review/Award — Pending 3. Award Receipt/Draw down of Funds — The City Of Lubbock will use the 2005 COPS Technology Grant resources for a project to upgrade the current RF data communications infrastructure with a wireless communications infrastructure that will facilitate the use of our available mobile data technology. This plan will begin when the City Of Lubbock receives funding authorization and award notification. 4. Receipt of Hardware/installation — Current City Of Lubbock Information Technology and Radio/Data Communications staff will perform the installation and system maintenance of the wireless data communications infrastructure. 5. Evaluate/Review Systems — Current City Of Lubbock Information Technology and Radio/Data Communications staff will evaluate and review the wireless communications infrastructure configuration and adjust as needed. 6. Grant Award Maintenance/Reporting — Ongoing throughout award period. The process will be completed in a 12-month time line as indicated in the implementation time line documents. Please refer to this time line for details. D. EVALUATION PLANS, OUTCOMES, AND EFFECTIVENESS The City Of Lubbock Police Department is actively working towards reducing neighborhood crime, reducing citizen fear of crime, and enhancing the quality of life in our community. These goals are pursued through various law enforcement activities supported by our Public Safety computer system. Currently, the new RMS product does permit a transfer of "live" crime report data, from the mobile field laptop. Unfortunately, the bandwidth limitation of the RF data communications infrastructure, working in conjunction with the new Public Safety computer system, prohibits the use of these laptop based computer enhancements. This limitation hinders positive crime prevention strategies in the field. The new RMS utilizes software to queue "live" Police Records data from 2 the new MDS. In turn, this "live" Police Records data remains queued until a supervisor approves the report and it is accepted into the new RMS system. This upgrade, of the RF communications infrastructure, will allow officers to access different databases with "liven victim information, suspect and witness information, involved party information and case records. This includes a graphics interface, crime map analysis, and digital photographs. Currently, the new CAD product will allow the officer to use graphics, digital mapping, digital photographs, and a variety of Global Positioning (GPS) and Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) technologies. Unfortunately, the bandwidth limitation of the RF data communications infrastructure, working in conjunction with the new Public Safety computer system, prohibits the use of these CAD enhancements. Once the upgraded wireless communication infrastructure is functional, the success of the new CAD, RMS, and MDS hardware, working with this upgrade can be evaluated by comparing the effectiveness and productivity of officers. When utilizing the full influence of the laptop functionality, including the field reporting process, productivity will significantly increase thereby magnifying the officer's previous technology limitations. E. CURRENT/PLANNED COMMUNITY POLICI The increased efficiency of the communications infrastructure for the new MDS, combined with our upgraded Public Safety computer system, will clearly increase the field officer's efficiency. This increased efficiency highlights the City Of Lubbock's dedication to provide for community participation in police services, increased opportunities for superior customer service, and managing a field officer's available time for responding to emergency service calls. The future oriented police department will focus on crime prevention strategies, by taking deterrent actions before a crime is committed. This strategy is enhanced through efficient police mobile data communications. The new wireless communications infrastructure will support our efforts to focus resources on all active beat units. This focus will associate each individual beat unit to a common information thread. This thread is the new MDS, linked through the wireless communications infrastructure, equipping all beat units with "live" police records information. Time management is another valuable resource for community oriented law enforcement activities. The wireless communications infrastructure upgrade, to support the City Of Lubbock Public Safety computer system, will help reduce the amount of time required to complete routine police calls for service. Good time management will increase the time an officer is available for proactive crime prevention strategies that are identified by community team groups. The more ki time an officer is available for working directly with citizens and community team groups, the greater the police services provided. Currently, the department is involved in several practical community policing strategies. The LPD Neighborhood Services Unit (NSU) is an active part of this team effort. The NSU is proactive in local neighborhood watch and citizen patrol activities. Also, some members of the NSU share directed Horse Patrol duties in target areas. Furthermore, the NSU directs centralized monthly Mobile Operations Vehicle (MOV) deployments. These deployments occur in targeted areas where community leaders and LPD NSU staff identify special needs or enforcement focus. City employees and outside public community agencies staff the MOV. MOV staffing is determined by the needs identified in pre -deployment planning meetings. Also, these MOV deployments involve collaborating with the Lubbock Independent School District Police Department. These working relationships with other governmental and community based organizations are instrumental in reaching our community policing goals and objectives. 4 U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services Grants Administration Division Washington, D.0 20530 Timeline Template This template represents a generic timeline covering a period of twelve (12) consecutive months.

Lubbock Police Department Wireless Data Communications Infrastructure Upgrade Project Budget Narrative EQUIPMENT A. Wireless Data Communications Infrastructure Upgrade Project - Hardware and Software components In April 2005, the City Of Lubbock completed an upgrade to its Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS). This upgrade required a hardware upgrade to our Mobile Data System (MDS). The MDS upgrade replaced 250(+) text -based mobile data terminals with laptop computers. However, the MDS hardware upgrade did no include any components of the radio -frequency (RF) mobile communications infrastructure. A 2003 COPS Technology Grant partially funded the MDS hardware upgrade. Both the new computer system and MDS hardware upgrades were completed concurrently. Currently available wireless communications infrastructure components will allow the City Of Lubbock to successfully integrate and utilize the new CAD, RMS, and MDS systems, as outlined in this application. At this time, the Lubbock Police Department, the Department of Public Safety, the Lubbock County Sheriffs Office, and the Lubbock Independent Scholl District Police Department rely on the City Of Lubbock's mobile data communications infrastructure. The City Of Lubbock has identified a critical need for upgrading its RF mobile data communications infrastructure. This upgrade will allow the City Of Lubbock to implement a project for a countywide wireless mobile data communications infrastructure that will facilitate the use of our available mobile data technology. Based on current technology pricing, the City of Lubbock estimates this project will require significant funding, greater than the allotted 2005 COPS Technology grant. Therefore, the total 2005 COPS Technology grant will be allotted to this project. Current City of Lubbock staff will perform the installation and routine maintenance of this communications infrastructure.
