CFDA 16.738 Program.Abstract Page 1 of 1 T Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG)`FY2012.Local Solicitation PETALUMA POLICE DEPARTMENT Program Narrative The City of Petaluma, California, is the second largest city in Sonoma County with a population of nearly 60,000 people. The city limits encompass approximately 14 square miles. The current police radio system infrastructure has been, in place well in excess of 20 years. During this time, the City has experienced growth at the extreme northern and southern ends of the City and the radio system has not been expanded. In 2011, the City complied with Federal radio narrowbanding requirements. The combination of City expansion and radio system narrowbanding has negatively affected the quality of radio reception from officers in the field. In particular, recent radio performance mapping shows the worst reception when officers make transmissions from the areas of the Petaluma Fairgrounds, Casa Grande High School and the southernmost areas of our city limits. Adequate radio coverage is essential in these areas. Funding from this grant will be used toward the purchase equipment necessary to add an additional radio receiver site at the southern end of the city limits to increase the quality of radio transmissions in the above-described areas. The exact site determination will be made after the receipt of funding and when negotiations have been finalized for the site location. The grant funds under-this program will pay for approximately 55% of the equipment purchase necessary for this project. The additional funding required to complete this project, including any costs associated with contracting for site location and labor costs for the equipment installation, will be paid by the City of Petaluma separate from any other source of Federal funding. All equipment purchased in this project is in compliance with FY 2012 SAFECOM Guidance for Emergency Communications Grants ensuring'interoperable communications.
