SUBJECT: Consideration of the Fourth Amendment to Five -Year Law Enforcement
Services Agreement for Fiscal Year 2003/2004
RECOMMENDATION:
By motion, approve the attached Fourth Amendment to the Service Agreement between
the City of San Juan Capistrano and the County of Orange for the provision of law
enforcement services during the 2003/2004 fiscal year, in the amount of $5,291,349; and
authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement.
SITUATION:
Since 1961, the City of San Juan Capistrano has contracted with the County of Orange for
the Sheriff -Coroner Department to provide law enforcement services. On July 5, 2002, the
San Juan Capistrano City Council approved a five-year Service Agreement between the
County and the City to continue this contract partnership.
The current contract includes: 1 Lieutenant (Chief of Police Services), 4 Sergeants (field
supervision and administrative duties), 2 Investigators (to investigate general crimes that
occur in San Juan Capistrano), 21 Deputy Sheriffs (patrol, special enforcement, red-light
camera administration, directed enforcement, and motorcycle traffic enforcement, among
other duties), and 2 Community Service Officers (parking enforcement and traffic accident
investigation).
The attached Fourth Amendment to the five-year Law Enforcement Services Agreement
between the City of San Juan Capistrano and the County of Orange provides for a
continuation of law enforcement services (Sheriff -Coroner Department) to the City of San
Juan Capistrano, at the same level, throughout fiscal year 2003/2004. The agreement
(see Attachment 1) specifically describes the various services provided by the Sheriffs
Department. Additionally, this amendment provides for the acquisition and maintenance
of Mobile Data Computers (MDC) to be installed in each patrol and investigative vehicle.
Staff recommends the City Council approve the Fourth Amendment to the five-year Law
Enforcement Services Agreement with the County of Orange.

COMMISSION/BOARD REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
Not applicable.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The total cost of services is $5,291,349. This amount has been included in this year's FY
2003/2004 budget. This represents an increase of 9.61 %, or $463,698, over last year's
agreement. A majority of this increase is due to increased costs of retirement and
insurance benefits for law enforcement personnel and costs associated with new Mobile
Date Computer technology. The acquisition cost of the MDC units will be funded by state
grant funds and is not included in the cost of this contract.
NOTIFICATION:
Not applicable.
ALTERNATE ACTIONS:
Approve the Fourth Agreement to the Five -Year Service Agreement between the
City of San Juan Capistrano and the County of Orange.
