5. Problem Statement & Proposed Solution
Clearly identify the problem/need (Problem Statement) in your local community that will be addressed by the Project. Then,
clearly identify the Proposed Solution to address the problem/need. If applicable, provide recent and high-level statistical
data that directly supports the problem/need in your local community. PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE TABLES IN
FIELD - EITHER TYPE INFORMATION IN FIELD OR ATTACH DOCUMENT.
The City of Dublin is a city with a residential population of 69,128 as of 07/01/23 according to the U.S Census Bureau.
The City of Dublin has been among the top rated, fastest growing cities in California for over a decade. The City of
Dublin has seen a 66 percent increase in population since 2010! Through a continued growing light industry, existing
retail business, and planned future residential, retail, and commercial development, the day-time population of Dublin
can increase even more. Major developmental projects currently under way in the City of Dublin which will increase
traffic flow within the city include The Dublin Centre light commercial and residential development, the Dublin Tri-Valley
Event Center, and the widening of Dublin Boulevard to connect with the City of Livermore.
The City of Dublin currently has over 130 miles of roadway, with more being planned and constructed. The vehicular
traffic in Dublin can increase to well over 100,000 vehicles coming in-and-out of the city on an average day. This
includes both residents and commuters using major roadways to access nearby freeways. There are four major
roadways thru Dublin which allow for a high volume of vehicular traffic during all hours from the neighboring cities of San
Ramon, Pleasanton, and Livermore. These cities are growing at similar rates as the City of Dublin with retail,
commercial, and residential development. Dublin is bordered on the south by Interstate 580 and on the west with
Interstate 680 running north and south thru Dublin. Due to the increasing volume of traffic, vehicle collisions are on the
rise while staffing levels are unable to keep pace.
In 2024, Dublin Police Services (DPS) saw 455 reported collisions. This includes 163 injury collisions, up 35 percent
over 2023, and 214 persons injured, an increase of over 35 percent. DUI collisions saw an increase from 21 collisions in
2023 to 33 in 2024, an increase of 57 percent. These numbers have been steadily increasing since the pandemic and
roadway use has reached pre-pandemic levels.
With the support from Cannabis Tax Fund Grant program, the DPS Traffic Unit will effectively and systemically address
some of the concerns associated with the steady rise in injury and DUI related crashes in the City of Dublin. This Grant
will allow funding for the purchase of a dedicated DUI suppression vehicle and two mobile message board trailers.
These acquisitions would greatly aid DPS in targeted enforcement operations directly aimed at the apprehension of
impaired drivers.
This Grant will allow DPS to conduct scheduled DUI saturation patrol operations within the city, which will bring
community awareness and education about DUI related crimes. These targeted enforcement engagements should have
a significant impact on the City of Dublin’s overall collision statistics.
In closing, the proposed Cannabis Tax Fund Grant will assist the DPS Traffic Unit with the operation of DUI enforcement
operations within the City of Dublin, aimed at improving roadway safety for all users.

6. Performance Measures/Scope of Work
Detail EACH Project activity/item below, which will serve as your goals and objectives for the Project. For EACH
goal/objective, include estimated timelines (ex: monthly, quarterly), quantitative measurements (ex: reduction of DUI/DUID
by %), and justification detailing how it will enhance/support the Project. NOTE: These goals and objectives must be
consistent with the Budget. PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE TABLES IN FIELD - TYPE INFORMATION IN FIELD.
1 DUI Suppression Patrol Vehicle for DUI enforcement operations (Q1 = Purchase, Q2 = Outfit, Q3-Q4 = Use during
DUI Saturation Patrol Operations). This DUI Suppression vehicle will be used for DUI enforcement operations, aimed at
increasing public education, awareness, and deterence of DUI related crimes with a goal of continued reduction of DUI
related incidents.
2 Mobile message board trailers equiped with digital feedback speed displays for DUI Checkppoints and Educational
Messaging (Q1 = Purchase, Q2 = Outfit, Q3-Q4 = Deploy in the field to aid in DUI Checkpoints and Educational
Messaging). These mobile message board trailers will be used provide roadside advisements of DUI Checkpoints and
advise drivers or a change in traffic patterns related to the DUI Checkpoint operation. The message board trailers are
capable of displaying vehicle speeds, which will further enhance the safety of checkpoint operations by reducing vehicle
speeds entering the checkpoint area.
12 DUI Saturation Patrol Operations (Q1 = 3, Q2 = 3, Q3 = 3, Q4 = 3): DUI Saturation Patrol Operations aimed at
reducing the number of DUI related incidents (Deaths/Collisions) by 10%, which will improve roadway safety in the
community.
EXAMPLE ONLY
16 DUI Saturation Patrols (Q1 = 4, Q2 = 4, Q3 = 4, Q4 = 4): Aim to reduce DUI/DUID deaths by 10%, which will
improve roadway safety in the community.
2 DUI Checkpoints (Q2 = 1, Q4 = 1): Aim to reduce DUI/DUID by 15%, which will reduce the number of impaired
drivers in the community.
4 Message Boards for DUI Checkpoints and Educational Messaging (Q1 = Purchase, Q2 = Receive, Q2-Q4 =
Use to complete DUI Checkpoints and education): We will utilize the Message Boards to notify the public of
an approaching DUI Checkpoint. In between DUI Checkpoints, we will display educational messaging against
driving under the influence.
4 Educational Presentations at local high schools (Q1 = 1, Q2 = 1, Q3 = 1, Q4 = 1): Aim to contact at least 100
students each quarter to increase awareness of driving under the influence. The presentations will educate
students on the implications of driving impaired.

8. Program Sustainability
Describe the plan for reducing reliance on future grant funding. Include a summary and timeframe to continue efforts when
grant funds are either not available or significantly reduced. PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE TABLES IN FIELD -
TYPE INFORMATION IN FIELD.
Future grant funding will not be required to continue the operation of the proposed DUI Suppression vehicle and mobile
message board trailers. The DUI Suppression vehicle will remain in service beyond the standard rotation of patrol
vehicles due to its specified purpose and operation. The mobile message board trailers are anticipated to be inservice
for up to 10 years beyond the grant cycle. Future DUI related operations may be integrated into the annual budget to
allow for reduced reliance on Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program funding. Additional funding may also be sought
through the Office of Traffic Safety grant programs.

patrol / Officer = OT $60 per hour 5 hours per patrol / 80 hours per Officer / 160 hours Note: If engaging in CTFGP
grant-funded Saturation Patrols, DUI Checkpoints, or other enforcement activities in areas where the applicant does
not have primary traffic jurisdiction, the applicant should consult with the agency having primary traffic jurisdiction.

Equipment
Costs may include non-expendable, tangible, personal property having a normal useful life of more than one year,
and an acquisition cost of at least $5,000 (ex: four identical assets, which cost $1,250 each, for a total of $5,000, are
not considered an equipment purchase). Equipment shall be directly related and necessary to complete CTFGP
grant-funded activities included in the Project. Equipment should be purchased at the beginning of the Project
Performance Period to ensure it is utilized when completing corresponding Project activities. If requesting
equipment, the Project shall contain a correlating CTFGP grant-funded Project activity (ex: Message Board for DUI
Checkpoints). To be eligible for reimbursement, equipment must be purchased and received within the Project
Performance Period. Itemize separate Budget line items for each Equipment item. For EACH Budget line item, the
