SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL part of Development Agreements. Staff further notes differences in the philosophy of the three cities in how funding is allocated. Whereas Pleasanton has generally chosen to fund almost every organization seeking funds at some level (including some very small allocations), Dublin and Livermore have been more selective, choosing to prioritize a shorter list of organizations. 5. Eliminating SROs — By freezing 2 FTE officer positions we get the savings? Answer: If we have two less officers, we have savings once the positions become vacant. a. Are you taking a vacancy factor into account when budgeting —is that factored in? Answer: A 2% vacancy factor is expected to be included in the upcoming two-year General Fund budget. b. This would reduce sworn officers from 83 to 81, but calls haven't gone down? Answer: Calls for service have not gone down. However, there are two other officer positions on the reduction list so it would be 83 to 79. c. Didn't we just say we're re -instating special units, and now this would eliminate it? Answer: With reduced personnel, there is a chance that special assignments go unfilled. Patrol is the core function of PD and with the challenges of less personnel, injuries, leave, training, vacancies, special assignment personnel would need to backfill patrol at a minimum, temporarily. 10
