DISCUSSION:
In January 1993, I.R. 7674, Auto Theft Prevention Authority, detailed a mult i-agency
effort to prevent and reduce auto theft. Key to that effort was receipt of a State
grant to fund a number of new initiatives. Tarrant County has received this grant from
the State which will fund a task force comprised of personnel from nine municipal
police agencies, the Tarrant County Sheriff's Department and the Texas Department of
Public Safety to help reduce motor vehicle thefts in the area. The Tarrant County Auto
Theft Task Force will implement a coordinated and cooperative auto theft enforcement
operation and will work to prevent through public education, auto thefts and the
subsequent sale of stolen parts, as well as apprehend and prosecute those individuals
involved in auto thefts and the sale of stolen vehicles and parts. Funding in the
amount of $44,500 has been approved in the grant for reimbursing the Police Department
the costs associated with assigning these civil service positions to the Auto Theft
Task Force. Those costs represent the six (6) months remaining in this fiscal year.
Tarrant County as the grantee will-reimburse costs associated with the assignment of
personnel f.rom~our department on a quarterly basis.
The Police Department currently has one hundred and twelve (112) authorized Sergeant
positions and one-hundred and seventy two (172) authorized Corporal/Detective
positions. This request is to increase the authorized strength so that the department
may participate in the Tarrant County Auto Theft Task Force.
