SHERIFF - REQUEST FOR AGREEMENTS WITH THE CITY OF OCEANSIDE, THE CITY OF EL CAJON, THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, AND THE CITY OF ESCONDIDO FOR CALIFORNIA IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM SUPPORT POSITIONS (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
The California Identification System/Remote Access Network (Cal-ID/RAN) is a statewide system that provides local law enforcement agencies with direct access to local, state, and federal automated fingerprint, palm print, photo systems and databases. This statewide system allows for the rapid identification of persons booked into detention facilities and latent prints lifted from crime scenes. The Sheriff's Department serves as San Diego County's Cal-ID/RAN administrator.
Since 2007, the San Diego County Cal-ID/RAN Board has served as a regional policy and advisory board responsible for making recommendations for a program to employ staff in crime laboratories across the region and identify suspects. The County of San Diego's (County's) current agreements for Cal-ID support positions with the cities of Oceanside, El Cajon, Chula Vista, and Escondido will expire on June 30, 2024. To ensure the continued success of the program, there is a need to continue to provide funding for staff at the Oceanside, El Cajon, Chula Vista, and Escondido Police Departments.
Today's request seeks approval to authorize agreements between the County by and through the San Diego County Sheriff's Department and the cities of Oceanside, El Cajon, Chula Vista, and Escondido to provide funding annually from the Sheriff Fingerprint ID Trust Fund to the cities for the Cal-ID support positions. The term of the agreements is July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, with automatic annual renewals up to a maximum of four additional years through June 30, 2029.
