School Security Initiative
Mission
Work in partnership with participating school districts to provide a safe learning environment for
students at schools within Fort Worth through the School Security Initiative Program.
Overview
The Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) and area school districts work in partnership to
provide youth a safe educational environment by providing FWPD officers at schools within the
city limits of Fort Worth that are participating in the School Security Initiative Program. The
participating school districts reimburse the FWPD 50 percent of the officer personnel and
operating costs and the full cost for a corporal, four sergeants, a lieutenant, and two relief
officers.
Serving in a dynamic position, the School Security Initiative's (SSI) Officers are sensitive to the
varied needs of students and staff, while also being vigilant and prepared to carry out law
enforcement duties at a moment's notice. In the summer months, SSI officers continue rigorous
training to prepare them for the upcoming school year--providing them with the knowledge and
tactics to readily act in any situation, from minor incidents (e.g., bullying, fights) to major events
(e.g., bombings, shootings).
Schools from the following school districts and/or agencies participate in SSI:

Special Events Overtime Detail
Mission
Provides enhanced security outside the event and ensures an orderly flow of traffic for special events held
throughout Fort Worth--providing a service for event participants without impacting normal patrol
operations.
Overview
The Special Events Overtime Detail provides Traffic Division officers the ability to assist in managing
traffic ingress and egress, providing a service for event participants without impacting normal patrol
operations. The Traffic Division spends more than 100 days a year in an effort to offer the best
experience possible to all event participants.
The Special Events Overtime Detail funding also provides the Fort Worth Police Department the ability
to ensure officers are actively working the outside perimeter of the event to enhance public safety at
designated special events. The program does not include security inside an establishment, as this is paid
by the enterprise holding the event.
The Fort Worth Police Department has witnessed a significant increase in event attendance due to an
overall increase in interest and publicity of events. Although public safety and traffic control at large
events can be a challenge, this service assists not only the event participants, but also has a positive
economic impact on Fort Worth, increasing sales tax revenues and providing positive publicity for the
city.
CCPD-funded special event overtime is provided for the following special events:
• Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Parade • July Fourth parade and fireworks
• Stock Show Parade • TCU football games
• Stock Show traffic detail • Alliance Air Show
• Good Guys Car Show • Veterans' Day Parade
• NASCAR Texas 500(April race) • Armed Forces Bowl
• Colonial Golf Tournament • Bass Hall performances
• Firestone 550 Indy Race • Red Bull Air Races
Goal
• Provide public safety through an orderly flow of traffic at designated special events in an effort to
encourage participation in local events, minimize negative impact to the surrounding area and
maximize the economic benefit to Fort Worth.
Performance Measures
• Number of special events
• Number of days working the event

Overview
The Expanded S.W.A.T. program provides eight officers to supplement S.W.A.T. These
additional officers allow for the creation of two teams of ten officers. The expansion of the two
teams significantly enhances the performance of the S.W.A.T. Section's core functions including
barricaded persons, hostage rescue, high-risk search and arrest warrants, dignitary protection, riot
control, and counter sniper response. In addition, the Expanded S.W.A.T. Section enhances the
ability to provide tactical training to the Zero Tolerance Teams, as well as other members of the
department.

Parks Community Policing
Mission
Provide enhanced public safety and promote crime prevention through officer presence at
designated Parks and Community Services (PACS) facilities and PACS-sponsored programs--
providing an enhanced service without impacting normal patrol operations.
Overview
The purpose of the Parks Community Policing program is to provide a safe environment for the
public and staff at all Parks and Community Services Department (PACS) facilities and PACS-
sponsored programs by having an officer present at specific sites and events. In order to not impact
normal patrol operations, police officers are provided overtime opportunities to work PACS
facilities and PACS-sponsored athletic events and community center recreation programs. In
addition, private security is provided at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens, which is also funded
through CCPD.
The Parks Community Policing Program supports the following PACs programs and locations:
- Late Night Program--implemented at five high-risk community center sites including Como,
Martin Luther King, Jr., Northside, Sycamore, and Worth Heights
- Adult Sport Programs and Nationally-Recognized Tournaments--held year-round at the
Gateway, Harmon, and Rolling Hills sports complexes

Strategic Operations Fund
Mission
Increase the Fort Worth Police Department's capacity to target particular outbreaks of criminal activity
as identified by intelligence-led policing initiatives and addressed through strategic operations to
reduce crime.
Overview
The Strategic Operations Fund (SOF) enhances the Fort Worth Police Department's capacity to
implement strategic operation details focused on reducing crime trends and taking repeat offenders off
the street that are identified through intelligence-led policing initiatives. The Information Management
Section leads the research, analysis, and development of strategic operation plans and makes
recommendations to and coordinates with specialized units and patrol divisions to implement the
strategic operations fund plans. Officers are provided an opportunity to participate in the detail on an
overtime basis as to not interrupt normal operations by utilizing Strategic Operations Funding through
CCPD. The Information Management Section is responsible for collecting all CCPD funded, after-
action reports to further analyze the outcomes and is responsible for forwarding the reports to the
Research & Planning Section to utilize for reporting purposes and record retention of activities
associated with Crime Control and Prevention District funded programs.
Performance can be measured either by overall result or statistical analysis, depending on the
operational goal. If the target is an offender or a group, their arrest or identification for future arrest
would be the measure of success. If the goal is crime reduction, then analysis would be conducted to
determine the level of crime reduction based on a specified period of time and geographic area.
Goals
• Strategically address emerging crime trends through concentrated efforts or details that target
specific trends and repeat offenders.

NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION
Neighborhood Patrol Officers (NPOs)
Mission
Provide officers on an enhanced basis to serve as a resource and to address the needs of neighborhoods
through increased patrol services and through the establishment of partnerships and strategies to reduce
neighborhood crime and promote crime prevention measures.
Overview
The Neighborhood Patrol Officer (NPO) program provides the Fort Worth Police Department the
ability to provide additional officers, above and beyond regular patrol staffing levels that are dedicated
to providing services to specific neighborhoods and/or designated geographic areas. The CCPD funds
the salaries of sixty-six (66) NPO positions, consisting of ten (10) sergeants and fifty-six (56) officers,
which serve five patrol divisions (Central, North, East, South, and West Division). These positions
complement the positions funded through the General Fund.
By having the Neighborhood Patrol Officers dedicated to specific geographic areas, the officers are not
only able to become more familiar with the area than regular patrol officers, but they are also able to
serve as a resource for and get to know area residents and business owners, learn about neighborhood
concerns, and build working relationships with area Citizen on Patrol volunteers to work hand-in-hand
in reducing neighborhood crime and promoting crime prevention tools.
Goals
• Work with crime analysts to identify crime trends within assigned neighborhoods, maintain open
lines of communication with detectives, and assist the Information Management Section and
supervisors in planning appropriate actions to address issues.
• Foster positive community leadership as a means to empower citizens within their neighborhoods
by encouraging involvement in Citizens on Patrol, Citizen Police Academy, Community Advisory
Committee, and Crime Watch to work collaboratively to reduce crime and promote crime
prevention tools.
• Maintain open lines of communication between residents, business owners and the police
department by attending community meetings and events, including neighborhood association and
other community meetings.
• Recruit Citizen on Patrol volunteers, schedule them for training, and provide on-going training and
correspondence to encourage and retain active memberships.
Performance Measures

Gang Graffiti Abatement
Mission
Eliminate and discourage graffiti throughout the City of Fort Worth through abatement, educational
strategies, and increased community involvement.
Overview
Graffiti is an illegal activity in which a person or group mark another's property without their consent.
Graffiti is unattractive, lowers property values, and can encourage other types of criminal activity in
neighborhoods. Graffiti and its associated problems can be defeated by removing it from a property as
soon as possible. The Gang Graffiti Abatement Program (GAP), managed by the Parks and
Community Services Department, working in conjunction with the Fort Worth Police Department,
Gang Unit, provides assistance to remove graffiti from tagged or vandalized properties.
The Gang Graffiti Abatement Program includes six civilian employees and operational expenditures
funded through the Crime Control and Prevention District to provide labor assistance to remove graffiti
as requested by affected property owners, provide educational materials about the negative impacts of
graffiti, and to provide contract funds for the high-tech removal of graffiti as necessary. The Parks and
Community Services Department also works in conjunction with area schools, businesses,
organizations, and other city departments (including Code Compliance and the Transportation and
Public Works Department) to promote awareness of the negative impacts of graffiti and to encourage
alternative legal outlets for this urban "art form."
Goals
• Remove graffiti from public and private property in a timely manner.
• Prepare and distribute educational curriculum regarding the impacts of graffiti.
Performance Measures
• Number of requests for abatement
• Number of sites abated

CODE BL UE
Mission
Make the City of Fort Worth's neighborhoods safer by building a working partnership between the
citizens of Fort Worth and the Fort Worth Police Department to actively reduce criminal activity and
promote crime prevention measures.
Overview
In 1991, Chief Windham started the CODE BLUE Program--an innovative program in which police
officers and citizens began working together in creative ways to assist in solving community problems
related to crime, fear of crime, and neighborhood decay through the City's first community policing
initiative. In 1995, the Crime Control and Prevention District began providing financial support for the
CODE BLUE program. The CODE BLUE program serves as the umbrella for supporting the efforts
of citizen groups such as the Citizens on Patrol Program (COPS), the Clergy and Police Alliance, the
Ministers Against Crime, and the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT).
The Code Blue Program funds five part-time positions to coordinate the Code Blue activities in each of
the five Field Operations Divisions. In FY2013, a position was added to focus on marketing efforts to
address recruitment and retention and other assignments as needed. For FY2014, funding is proposed
to provide for a new program called Code Blue at the School that will focus on an increased awareness
of potential violence at Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD) elementary schools. The
program, which provides an added security measure after recent national events, is an extension of the
existing Citizens on Patrol (COP) program that has served the City well for more than twenty years.
The FY2014 goal of this program is to recruit enough volunteers to patrol the perimeter of 42 FWISD
elementary schools. The Fort Worth Police Department staff hopes to recruit enough volunteers to
patrol the perimeter of 84 FWISD elementary schools in FY2015.
The proposed budget provides funding for seven civilian dispatchers specifically assigned to monitor
the Code Blue channels of FWPD's radio system, which converted to encrypted service in 2013.
Aside from the Code Blue and other interoperability channels, all police channels were encrypted to
provide officer safety, security, and privacy. Legal requirements also changed; all telecommunication
operators, including dispatchers and Code Blue base operators are now required to be certified by the
Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE), changing the way in which the Code Blue base
operators had previously worked—in direct communication with Neighborhood Patrol Officers
(NPOs) within their assigned areas. The new dispatchers will be certified under the new law and will
communicate to volunteers exclusively on the dedicated Code Blue radio channels. NPOs will also
monitor the Code Blue channels to stay apprised of events occurring within their beat.
Goals
• Recruit and retain a large pool of COPS volunteers from throughout Fort Worth that will regularly
patrol neighborhoods and area schools, acting as extra eyes and ears for the police department and
reporting on any suspicious behavior.
• Thoroughly train COP volunteers in the functions of the police department, how to work in
partnership with the department, and how to safely patrol neighborhoods and schools with support
from the police.

Overview
A variety of department operations are housed in leased police storefronts or small office spaces--often
times provided at low cost, with varying degrees of utility and maintenance responsibility built into the
lease. Neighborhood Patrol Officers and beat officers utilize the storefronts to complete reports, assist
the public with community issues, and meet with community groups regarding crime within the
immediate area of the storefront. Code Blue, Crime Watch, and other community groups also use
these spaces for various meetings. Crime Control and Prevention District funds are allocated towards
storefront leases, utilities, supplies, and other operating costs.

After School Program
Mission
Enhance crime prevention efforts through after school enrichment programs--providing a safe
environment that results in educational, physical, and social development for students.
Overview
National research shows that adolescents are at a higher risk of being a victim of crime or committing a
criminal act between 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on a school day than at any other time. A multi-
disciplinary task force consisting of City officials, school district personnel and related service
providers conducted extensive research and developed a coordinated program for schools throughout
the City that have documented juvenile crime problems. The After School Program provides activities
during the peak hours of juvenile criminal activity in an effort to prevent crime and provide an
alternative safe environment.
Four independent school districts receive funding in support of after school programs including Fort
Worth, Crowley, Keller, and White Settlement. The school districts may provide the following
activities as part of their program:
1. Academic activities encompassing the following guides that will inspire creative learning,
improve critical thinking, and relate directly to the students' class work.
2. Sports and recreation, both structured and unstructured, allowing for individual and team play
exercises.
3. Community service.
One of the following is required in the development of activities.
1. Fine Arts—provide skill development and/or appreciation of the arts.
2. Character Development—activities promoting positive values and emphasizing social
competencies such as honesty, integrity, responsibility, friendship skills, and peaceful conflict
resolution.
3. Student Life Skills—activities teaching skills and providing knowledge on topics students can use.
CCPD funds can be expended on personnel costs (including benefits), supplies, equipment, and other
contractual services as laid out in each awarded agency's budget summary. The school districts must
submit reports to Fort Worth Police Department staff that outline fund expenditures and performance
results prior to reimbursement.
Goal
Support efforts to increase the safety of youth and reduce juvenile crime through crime prevention and
intervention programs.

FORT WORTH ISD
Overview
Fort Worth After School (FWAS) programming takes place at campuses throughout the Fort Worth
Independent School District(FWISD). The objective of FWAS is to provide enrichment opportunities
through unique and engaging experiences that challenge and inspire the program participants. FWAS
programming is extremely diverse, as program offerings vary widely at all campuses.
Performance Measures
• Provide a safe environment for 2,800 unduplicated elementary and middle school-aged youth for
homework assistance, tutorials, and other relevant educational programs.
• Reduce the truancy rate of program participants by three percent.
Program Activities
• Number of unduplicated program participants—Target=2,800
• Average daily participation -Target=2,520
• Number of tutoring hours per week—Target=225
• Number of truancy citations received by program participants -Target= 3%
Achievements
Initial, long-term studies have shown that students participating in FWAS for multiple years, and more
consistently during the school year, score higher on high-stakes accountability tests. Further, students
also attend school more often and receive fewer referrals than their counterparts. School staff also
report that FWAS participants come to school prepared for the school day as a result of homework
completion. Staff also reports that participants are more courteous and eager to please because
participants understand that there is a correlation between school day behavior and the ability to
participate in after school programming.

Safe Haven Youth Program —Bethlehem
Mission,
Provide after school programming for at-risk children and youth as a crime prevention strategy and in
an effort to address the factors that lead to at-risk behavior at home and in school.
Overview
The Safe Haven Youth Program at the Bethlehem Center is a prevention program operated by the
United Community Center (UCC) that provides a safe environment for after school programming for
at-risk children and youth. The program's central purpose is to address factors that lead to at-risk
behavior at home and school. During the course of the year, a typical participant will spend more than
1,000 hours in the program participating in cultural, sport, and educational activities--promoting self-
esteem and developing positive personal and academic behaviors. This provides for an in-depth and
extended intervention in an environment in which children feel safe and secure, in a gang-free zone,
and away from dysfunctional homes.
Children who come to the Bethlehem Center meet poverty level guidelines and display the typical
needs of low-income families--many of which come from single-parent households. Children and
youth participating in the Safe Haven Youth Program at Bethlehem primarily live in the 76104 zip
code.
Participants are transported from school to the Bethlehem Center; a snack and meal are provided as
part of the program. During the summer, an increased number of activities are provided. The UCC
provides full day supervision and programming from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. This programming
provides an affordable service for working parents; three meals and two snacks are provided during
summer months. Nine to ten hours of programming is provided to participants during the summer
months. Summer-time lessons and activities have been designed to prevent the academic backsliding
that normally occurs during the summer. Educational and recreational field trips are typical activities
during the summer months.
The Bethlehem Center has been funded by the Crime Control and Prevention District since FY 2007.
Goals
• Deter at-risk children and youth from engaging in anti-social and delinquent behavior by providing
after school and summer programming that focuses upon self-esteem development, positive
personal behavior, and academic success.
Performance Measures
• Number of unique youth served by the program—Target=200
• Number of hours of recreational and athletic activities—Target= 11,000
• Number of hours of cultural enrichment activities—Target= 7,500

Community-Based Programs
Mission
Support local non-profit organizations in their efforts to prevent crime in partnership with the Crime
Control and Prevention District throughout the City of Fort Worth.
Overview
The CCPD provides financial support for crime prevention or intervention programs of local,
registered non-profit agencies. These programs are to supplement the current crime prevention
strategies funded by the district and must address at least one of the following goals:
• Support efforts to reduce violent crime and gang-related activities through enhanced
enforcement activities and crime prevention programs;
• Support efforts to increase the safety of residents and to decrease crime throughout Fort Worth
neighborhoods; and
• Support efforts to increase the safety of youth and reduce juvenile crime through crime
prevention and intervention programs.
CCPD-funded community-based programs must serve the City of Fort Worth in their crime prevention
efforts, and priority consideration is given to those programs that address the prevention or
intervention of youth and/or family violence.
Agencies submit proposals to FWPD, outlining the details of their crime prevention programs,
including a project overview, budget summary, goals, and performance measures. All proposals are
reviewed and scored by a committee. The Scoring Committee makes recommendations to the CCPD
Board, and programs are awarded funding on a competitive basis based on the amount of funds
allocated towards community-based programming each fiscal year; therefore, not all applicants are
guaranteed to receive CCPD funding.
CCPD funds can be expended on personnel costs (including benefits), supplies, equipment, and other
contractual services as laid out in each awarded agency's budget summary. Awarded agencies must
submit quarterly reports to FWPD staff that outline fund expenditures prior to reimbursement, as well
as, performance results.
The annual funding allocation for the community-based programs is set by the CCPD Board of
Directors based, in part, upon input received from citizens.

officers to work in the field. The Police Department routinely analyzes the appropriate number of
recruits needed to avoid personnel shortages throughout the Department and to ensure that all Fort
Worth Crime Control and Prevention District components remain fully staffed. All costs for personnel
training were funded through the CCPD beginning in FY 1998.
The FWPD training academy operates on a 32-week schedule, and trains recruits on best practices and
curricula based on Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officers Standards and Education
(TCLEOSE), which includes legal procedures; federal, state, and local laws; physical fitness; defensive
and control tactics; TASER electronic conducting devices; police driving; and a variety of community
service and communication-oriented classes. It also trains recruits on policies and standards specific to
the Fort Worth Police Department.
The Crime Control and Prevention District funds all costs of recruit training, including all equipment
utilized for training and equipment issued to officers upon graduation for their new position. This
equipment list includes, but is not limited to, the following:

qualified, diverse pool of applicants that will be dedicated to protect and provide quality service to the
City of Fort Worth.
Overview
There are three focus areas to the New Officer Recruitment Program. The first area is to fund
recruitment materials, advertising and travel in order to be competitive in recruitment efforts and to
enable the Department to have the resources available to be proactive in recruiting and hiring diverse
personnel. Extensive efforts are currently underway to increase the number of minorities recruited to
the Fort Worth Police Department--to better reflect the demographics of the city. The Recruiting Unit
is focusing recruitment strategies at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and Hispanic-
Serving Institutions (HSIs), and intends to foster and maintain relationships with these institutions, in
addition to regional police academies, in order to preserve a continual supply of qualified police
recruits. The second area of the program provides funding for the Fort Worth Explorer Program,
which is committed to developing the life skills and career path of Fort Worth's youth. Explorers are
taught the importance of higher education, self-discipline in reaching their goals, and are encouraged to
seek law enforcement as an attainable and attractive career choice. Several Explorer Program
participants have become Fort Worth Police Officers or have entered the law enforcement field. The
third area of the program provides funding for prospective new recruit background evaluations. The
FY 2014 budget request includes funding for enhanced recruiting and testing tools.
Goals
• Recruit diverse, highly-skilled and educated recruits--focusing recruitment efforts on area colleges
and universities, the military, and minority organizations.

High Mileage Vehicle Replacement
Mission
Replace high-mileage vehicles to ensure operational needs are being met and enable the flexibility to
maintain and modernize police fleet as operational priorities change.
Overview
The Police Department formulated a vehicle replacement plan that would allow the modernization of
the fleet with the goal of no assigned patrol car to have more than 100,000 miles. To maintain this
plan, it is necessary to consistently purchase fleet replacement vehicles and move higher mileage cars
to units that have less demanding operational needs. The replacement plan focuses on front-line patrol
vehicles, as these vehicles are operated around-the-clock, have multiple drivers and very little
downtime, which lends itself to high vehicle mileage and impacts the overall condition of the vehicle.
This program's funding is critical for the purchase and replacement of vehicles that are an officer's
primary tool in accomplishing the most basic of policing operations.
The Ford Interceptor has been selected as the new police patrol vehicle and funding for FY 2014 will
provide for 165 of the newly selected patrol vehicle models and the minor equipment needed to furnish
them with the required police technical equipment, as well as, funding for the purchase of unmarked
cars for various sections within the Police Department.
Goals
• Provide adequate quantity of quality vehicles to ensure vehicle diversity and readiness that will
enhance the department's operational performance.

Overview
The Fort Worth Police Department does not operate a local municipal jail and until December 1, 2001,
contracted with the Tarrant County Sheriffs Department for these services. The City of Fort Worth
then entered into a contract with the City of Mansfield for detention services. The existing contract
with the City of Mansfield began on October 1, 2006 for a one-year initial term, with automatic
renewals of subsequent one-year terms up to nine years through September 30, 2016. The annual
payment increases 4% each subsequent year the contract is renewed The Crime Control and
Prevention District Board began funding the increased jail costs during year three of the initial
authorization. The Crime Control and Prevention District froze its jail cost allocation at the FY 2005
level.
Due to the increasing cost of the existing detention service contract, the City of Fort Worth is currently
evaluating detention service options. Per a contract amendment, the City of Fort Worth must notify the
City of Mansfield 180 days prior to the annual renewal date if it intends to renew or extend the
agreement or if alternative options have been identified.

technological advancements and enhancements that are key to meeting legal mandates, improve upon
efficiencies, and support overall operations and departmental initiatives.
Due to technological advancement, the Police Department needs to replace computers based on a five-
year life cycle. Prior to implementation of the Phase 1 Refresh Plan in FY 2012, the Police
Department identified more than 1,200 computers in need of replacement. The Police Department, in
conjunction with the City's IT Solutions Department, is continuing to implement the Refresh Plan by
replacing eligible computers in FY 2013. The goal for FY 2014 is to continue to replace at least 250
computers identified on the City's Refresh Plan in addition to providing resources for printers, servers,
scanners, and software enhancements.
Goals
• Continue efforts to replace computers and provide resources for printers, servers, scanners and
software enhancements that support the mission and initiatives of the Fort Worth Police
Department.

Undercover Vehicles
Mission
Provide a wide range of undercover vehicles adding vehicle diversity while enhancing tactical
operations within various sections of the Police Department diversity in undercover vehicle operations.
Overview
Undercover vehicles are utilized by specific units within the Tactical Command, most notably the
Narcotics section. In order to maximize the effectiveness of the operations, the scope for the lease
vehicle program was changed in FY 2013 to allow for the purchase of used vehicles. This recent
transition will allow long-term (five to eight years) use of the vehicles and will grow the Fort Worth
Police Department's existing police fleet. An expanded fleet will then increase vehicle diversity
throughout the department that will allow immediate swap-outs if any situation should arise that could
impact the safety of officers. The FY 2014 proposed budget is based on the new scope including
operation and maintenance costs.
Goals
• Provide the Tactical Command with operational, quality undercover vehicles with diversity that
will allow them to perform covert operations while ensuring officer safety.

DNA Crime Lab Support
Mission
Sustain an accredited DNA profiling service for the police department that is effective, efficient, and
economical.
Overview
The DNA Crime Lab Support program assisted in expanding the services provided by the FWPD
Crime Laboratory and was initiated in order to reduce processing time and create greater case
efficiencies in violent crime investigations. The Fort Worth Police Department's DNA Unit recently
obtained ASCLD/LAB and Texas Department of Safety accreditation and is now able to process DNA
cases in-house, instead of relying solely upon outside agencies to process such cases. Having the DNA
Unit will allow the FWPD to seek additional grant funding and potentially other revenue sources from
other agencies. At this time, the DNA Unit is initially performing analysis for FWPD only, but is
anticipating extending service to nearby police agencies in the future, serving as a potential revenue
generator for the police department. The Crime Control and Prevention District FY 2014 proposed
budget provides funding for three positions, training, equipment and other operational cost.
Goal
Operate and maintain accredited DNA profiling and testing services to conduct casework examinations
in an efficient manner.
Performance Measures
• Complete training for three employees so they are fully qualified to conduct DNA casework for
FWPD Crime Lab
• Install new DNA Extraction Robot.
• Commence DNA profiling casework
• Increase DNA capacity to 250 cases per year
Achievements
The DNA equipment has been validated, and the standard operating procedures have been written.
One of the largest achievements is that the FWPD Crime Lab has been granted ASCLD/ LAB
accreditation.

The Traffic Division is responsible for traffic enforcement throughout the entire city and operates with
34 authorized positions funded by the General Fund. The division is also responsible for dignitary
escorts, traffic flow, and counter flow for special events held in the city. Each motorcycle is assigned
to a specific officer, and is set up to meet each officer's specifications, including his/her height and
reach in order to correctly fit their motorcycle. CCPD funding of this Motorcycle Replacement
Program allows for proper motorcycle rotations, which should not exceed six years or 60,000 miles.
Approved program funding and the established vehicle rotation schedule will ensure and optimize
officer safety, operational costs, and resale value.
Goals
• Ensure officer safety by properly maintaining motorcycle equipment and adhering to the
replacement and/or rotation schedule.
• Monitor the operational cost and resale value of motorcycle-related equipment.
Performance Measures
• Number of motorcycles ordered
• Number of motorcycles replaced

Mobile Data Computers
Mission
Guarantee operational readiness by equipping designated vehicles with mobile data computers.
Overview
Mobile data computer (MDC) technology enables patrol units to connect to law enforcement
databases, offering officers instant access to information about the area for which they are assigned to
patrol. MDCs are typically rugged-style laptops meant to withstand the constant use and stresses of
patrolling the city. MDCs were purchased by the Crime Control and Prevention District and placed
into operation in FY 2001. In FY 2007, funds from CCPD were used to purchase new MDCs and a
full conversion of all vehicles was completed. New technology and program design have surpassed the
capability of the current system that was installed in 2007, which hindered officers' abilities to receive
critical information.
In FY 2013, CCPD funding was provided to purchase and replace 975 MDCs in patrol units after an
initial research and testing phase in FY 2012. The FY 2014 budget request is based on the
continuation of the purchase and replacement in other units across the department in order to meet the
operational demands.
Goal
• Continue to purchase and install mobile data computers in order to maintain the operational
readiness of the department's patrol vehicles.
Performance Measures
• Number of MDCs purchased
• Number of MDCs installed

Taser Replacement
Mission
Provide officers a non-lethal option of force and ensure that tasers are maintained and replaced based
on a rotation schedule.
Overview
The Taser Replacement program enables the FWPD to purchase tasers to equip officers with a non-
lethal electronic control device used to subdue suspects. Tasers, much like other police equipment,
have a finite useful life and need to be replaced according to a set schedule. Having fully-functional
tasers will reduce the number of officer-incurred injuries, thereby reducing the medical expenses and
the liability associated with use-of-force situations.
The FY 2014 CCPD proposed budget, in combination with other funding sources, will replace all
tasers that are more than five years old.
Goal
• Replace taser equipment and adhere to the replacement schedule of all other taser-related
devices.
Performance Measures
• Number of tasers purchased
• Number of tasers issued

Digital Cameras for Vehicle Replacement
Mission
Equip designated patrol vehicles with operational in-car digital video systems.
Overview
Digital in-car video systems are a critical component of the police department's operational needs as
these systems provide evidence of potential criminal activity, limit the civil liabilities of officers, and
document officer behavior during interactions with the public.
FWPD currently operates in-car video systems in more than 290 marked police vehicles, including all
front-line patrol vehicles, Traffic Division DWI units, Commercial Vehicle Enforcement units, and 12
vehicles assigned to ZT teams.
The Digital Cameras for Vehicle Replacement program funding is critical for the purchase and
replacement of digital video systems and related equipment. The goal for FY 2014 is to complete the
digital video installation in the Traffic Division while working to expand digital video installations in
all Zero Tolerance and NPO vehicles as equipment and funding are made available.
Goal
• Purchase and install in-car digital video systems and related equipment and ensure their
operational readiness within designated vehicles.
Performance Measure
• Number of in-car digital video systems purchased
• Number of in-car digital video systems installed

Fort Worth Police Department Heliport
Mission
Further the department's ability to rapidly combat crime in a specialized, cooperative, and proficient
manner by housing up-to-date, faster, and/or larger helicopters.
Overview
In FY 2013, the Police Department completed the CCPD funded design plans for a new Heliport at
Meacham International Airport, as the current facility is in a dilapidated state and is not meeting the
department's operational needs. The new heliport will meet the current and future Police Department
operational requirements.
The goal for FY 2014 is to fund the construction phase of the new Heliport. The construction phase
will begin with the bidding of the project, and official construction is scheduled to start in October
2013 with a target of one year for completion. The FY 2014 budget request includes funding for the
final portion of the construction phase, and technology and equipment needed for the project.
Goal
Construct a heliport that will efficiently house all Aviation Division staff and equipment, including up-
to-date and larger helicopters, in an effort to provide specialized security to the City of Fort Worth.
Performance Measures
Performance measures are evaluated collectively as timelines are met. The new Aviation Division
heliport construction timeline is as follows:
• Construction bidding estimated to begin Summer 2013
• Contract start October 2013
• Construction estimated completion date October 2014

Police Radio Systems
Mission
Support the City's efforts to upgrade the aging public safety radio system.
Overview
The City is in the process of upgrading its public safety radio system used by Police, Fire, and other
departments. The current system, installed in 1992, is experiencing reliability, capacity, and coverage
area issues directly related to its age and city growth. The Police Radio System program will provide
the following improvements: Current generation infrastructure and radios fully supported by the
manufacturer; increased emergency capacity through the use of a citywide public works radio system;
increased coverage areas in southwest Fort Worth and around the Texas Motor Speedway area with the
installation of two new radio sites and secure/encrypted radio communications for law enforcement.
For FY 2014, the Crime Control and Prevention District is contributing $2.2 million towards the Police
component of the project.
Goal
Contribute funding for the public safety radio systems upgrade.
Performance Measures
Radio systems upgrade completion in 2014

Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 9/23/2014 - Ordinance No. 21462-09-2014
DATE: Tuesday, September 23, 2014 REFERENCE NO.: **G-18315
LOG NAME: 35FY2014 BUDGET ADJUSTMENT
SUBJECT:
Authorize Mid-Year Adjustment to the Fiscal Year 2014 Crime Control and Prevention District Budget to
Decrease the Fort Worth Police Department Heliport in the Amount of$319,611.00 and Increase the
Special Events Overtime Detail in the Amount of$319,611.00 and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance (ALL
COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize mid-year adjustment to the Fiscal Year 2014 Crime Control and Prevention District budget to
decrease the Fort Worth Police Department Heliport in the amount of$319,611.00 and increase the
Special Events Overtime Detail in the amount of$319,611.00.
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the estimate receipts and appropriations in the
Special Events Overtime Program of the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund in the amount of
$319,611.00 from available funds in the Fort Worth Police Department Heliport of the same fund.
DISCUSSION:
The Crime Control and Prevention District Board of Directors (Board) is responsible for formally adopting
the annual Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) operating budget and establishing the spending
limits for each program. The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication is to present a Fiscal
Year(FY) 2014 mid-year budget adjustment for approval.
On August 12, 2014, the Board approved Staffs request to make a budget adjustment to the FY 2014
budget by decreasing the Fort Worth Police Department Heliport budget by the amount of$319,611.00
and increasing the Special Events Overtime Detail budget in the amount of $319,611.00. The Special
Events Overtime Detail overage is a result of increased event attendance and additional events. In FY
2014, the Traffic Division provided additional traffic control for a Texas Motor Speedway rain day, a July
4th Trinity River event and the Red Bull Air Race. The overtime costs for these special events were not
anticipated or included in the FY 2014 budget.
These mid-year budget adjustment shifts savings from programs within the FY 2014 CCPD Budget and
will have a net effect of zero dollars on the total FY 2014 CCPD Budget.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon the approval of the above
recommendation and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the
current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund.
