PROBLEM: In the space provided, briefly summarize the problem that is addressed by the
project.
The City of Lodi Police Department, in conjunction with San Joaquin County's District
Attorney, Probation Department and the Lodi Municipal Court has targeted narcotics
offenders in response to rising narcotics use, increased property crimes and a lack of
manpower needed to respond to the drug crisis in Lodi_ Intelligence information and
recent narcotics arrests highlight our primary drug problem with street level offenders
and mid-level offenders. To meaningfully curb criminal activity generated by the
targeted groups, additional narcotics officers are proposed to enhance the existing
2 man narcotics team at Lodi Police Department. We firmly believe more arrests will be
made with a larger drug enforcement unit. Prosecution, probation and court staff are
included to address all components of the criminal justice system impacted by this
cooperative effort to get users and dealers off the streets of Lodi.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
INSTRUCTIONS: Provide the requested information to validate the need
for the proposed project. Use additional pages as needed, not to
exceed ten, double spaced typed pages for the Problem Statement
(Attachments B -5A through B -5E).
1. NATURE AND SCOPE OF THE PROBLEM
Describe the nature and scope of the drug problem which is the
focus of the proposed project. Include drug and crime data to
substantiate the problem.
National, state and local news is replete with headlines
depicting the American narcotics debacle. Unfortunately the City
of Lodi is not unique... it experiences the same phenomena. The
devastating impact of narcotics and the accompanying criminal
activity is as keenly felt in Lodi as it is by larger neighboring
cities.
The City of Lodi is located in the northern portion of San
Joaquin County. It is the county's second largest city with a
population of approximately 47,000. The 1986 population increase
was 5.7% and represented the single largest increase in over 20
years. Lodi is approximately 10 square miles and has a planned
growth pattern which leaves little undeveloped area.
A review of characteristics making up our city reveals the
following points of interest:
1) Lodi Unified School District has continued to experience
phenomenal growth with junior high and high school students
alone in excess of 7,000.
APPENDIX B -5A
2) Senior Citizens (65 & over) comprise 17% of our population.
Seniors are heavily involved in our Neighborhood Watch
program.
3) The unemployment rate in Lodi is 8.1%.
4) Approximately 15% of Lodi's population is made up of families
living below the poverty line (an income of $7,600 annually).
Geographically, Lodi is located between two of California's
crime prone areas; Stockton and Sacramento. Three major
transportation links give easy access to Lodi: Highway 99
traverses the east portion of the city, Highway 12 on the south
portion, and Interstate 5 which lies just west of Lodi. Ease of
movement provided by these arteries stimulate the influx of
narcotics offenders from outlying areas.
Current intelligence information indicates the rich
agricultural condition of the Delta farmland makes it a center for
marijuana production. Just minutes from Lodi on highway 12, much
of the cash crop is trafficked on Lodi's streets. In the foothill
communities just east of Lodi, many methamphetamine labs feed
Lodi's numerous "crank" habits. Informants indicate a lot of area
users are abusing substances produced locally.
Lodi is surrounded by an area rich in agriculture; this
partially explains the growing presence of undocumented aliens
working and residing locally. Because of this groups illegal
status they are often reluctant to report crimes, hesitant to come
forward as witnesses or victims, and are generally uncooperative
when contacted by police. As some illegals migrate north from
Mexico, one of the world's largest production centers for illicit
drugs, they are prone to continue in narcotics related activities.
APPENDIX B -5A
The recent observation of a local judge related this
scenario, "illegals who use drugs used to fear the immigration
laws; now that these laws are relaxed we see larger quantities for
sale being carried in, not the smaller amounts for one user."
We have also noted an increase in illegal aliens in
possession of drugs, according to this judge.
Thirteen percent of Lodi's citizens are of minority
extraction, primarily Hispanics (10%) and also Asians (3%). Also
present are American Indians (.8%) and Blacks (.1%).
In the first 8 months of 1987 the Lodi Police Department has
arrested 2,743 persons for all offenses. Of these arrestees, 838
or 31% were of Mexican descent. Through August 31, 1987 Lodi
Police Department has arrested a total of 300 adult offenders for
narcotics offenses. Of that total, 98 arrests or 33% were of
Mexican descent.
In the first 8 months of 1987, Lodi Police Department has
arrested 343 adult and juvenile drug offenders for a variety of
health and safety violations; primarily for under the influence
(11550), secondly for possession of drugs for sale. The narcotics
unit has confiscated a total of 417 grams in the following
quantities: cocaine 169.5 grams, methamphetamine 184.6 grams,
heroin 63.5 grams.
Our narcotics unit has received a total of 441 reported
incidents relating to narcotics activity from January to June
1987. With this incidence rate, leads have to be prioritized so
those with the greatest potential for results can be followed up.
APPENDIX B -5A
However, only 1 (two man) team is available to do this. Even
averaging 10 hours of overtime per week, existing manpower cannot
handle the high volume of narcotics activity.
Narcotics intelligence shows we have approximately 120 heroin
addicts living and operating in the city limits. Although crank
users are not as visible, intelligence estimates three times as
many crank users as heroin users.
Presently, it is estimated that there are approximately 65
narcotics dealers operating in Lodi. Drugs dealt by those
trafficking include mostly cocaine, rock cocaine, heroin,
methamphetamine, PCP, LSD and Marijuana.
In the last six months we have noted a slight decrease in
residential burglaries (down 6%), and we believe a partial
explanation is our C -CAP program which concentrates on repeat
offenders. We are currently in Phase II, managing patrol
operations. We also believe a contributing factor to be our
Community Crime Resistance Program which concentrates heavily on
Neighborhood watch.
In the last six months a slight increase in commercial
burglaries has been observed (up 5%). We believe part of this
increase is attributable to street -level users.
Although the crime rate seems somewhat stabilized at this
time, we are not seeing the reduction we had hoped for in the
presence of innovative programs (C -CAP, CCR). We feel the missing
link may be more effective measures of controlling drug abuse. A
more concentrated focus on the people involved in narcotics
activity should lead to a substantial reduction in the associated
criminal activities.
APPENDIX B -SA
Two recent examples of the degree of narcotics activity show
the direct and indirect impact on this city. The direct
devastation was witnessed first hand by an undercover officer
working at Lodi High School, netting 26 arrests in a 3 month
operation. An example of indirect impact is a local merchant
(Mervyn's) who suffers a loss of approximately $10,000 a week
shoplifted by Lodi and surrounding area hypes.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
2. TARGETED OFFENDERS
Describe the category of drug offender(s) targeted in the proposed
project. Describe the relationship between the targeted
offender(s) and the drug problem.
It is anticipated that by targeting street level offenders
(users) and mid-level offenders (dealers) LPD will have the
greatest impact on criminal activity in our city. There may be
major drug offenders who reside and operate within the city,
however current intelligence information indicates the primary
narcotics problem lies with the street users and mid-level
dealers. Lodi has experienced limited gang activity, but there is
no indication at this time that they are engaged in narcotics
offenses. we will continue to monitor gang activities, and if
indications of narcotics are suspected, efforts will be redirected
to include gang activity.
3. TARGET AREA
Describe the geographic area targeted in the proposed project.
Include appropriate geographic, demographic and socioeconomic
information. Attach a map, if available. Include the target area
population. Use 1987 Department of Finance estimates if available
(see Appendix G, Page 73). Indicate the source if other data is
used.
Recent interviews with our narcotics officers reveal several
geographic locations within the city that are high in narcotics
activity; the predominant area being the 00-100 blocks of North
Sacramento Street. This is an older part of our downtown section

primarily lined with ten bars. Also included in this area are 3
card rooms and 2 hotels with flophouse -type rooms. The numerous
bars in this area have an almost entirely Hispanic patronage, most
of whom are in a low income bracket. Many of the Hispanics
frequenting this area are illegal aliens. Of our total calls for
service, an average of 7% occurred in this locale in 1986. This
area is frequented by heroin addicts, patrol officers arrest 1-2
"hypes" weekly for openly injecting narcotics. One of the bars,
the 3 Aces Tavern, was issued a 20 -day license suspension by ABC
this week for frequent narcotics sales.
A second area high in narcotics activity is Hale Park,
located at the corner of Lockeford and Washington Streets. This
is mainly a commercial area, somewhat isolated from permanent
residents. Subsequently, visitors to the park can move about
freely without attracting the attention of "neighbors". Patrol
officers on bicycles recently rode up on two individuals injecting
narcotics.
Another area high in narcotics activity are two bars located
on Cherokee Lane. The DelMonte Club and Ermanno's Skyroom have
hosted numerous drug transactions, mostly methamphetamine
traffic. These bars serve mainly white, working class patrons;
they are located in one of our highest crime areas. This area is
entirely commercial, bordered by lower Income residential housing.
APPENDIX B -5B
Our last target area identified at this time is Mervyn's
Department Store, targeted not for its drug activity, but for the
high rate of property crimes occurring there. The store is
located at Kettleman Lane and Hutchins Street. This store has
experienced a large number of "grab & run" shoplift offenses,
averaging a loss of $10,000 a week. In approximately 90% of the
follow-up contacts of suspects, a local "hype" is identified. The
store is located in an entirely commercial area, with the
intersection bordering Mervyn's being two major thoroughfares for
easy in and out traffic.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
4. CURRENT DRUG CONTROL EFFORTS
Describe current drug control efforts directed at the problem which
is the focus of the proposed project. Be specific in regard to
the targeted offender(s) and target area of the proposed project.
Presently LPD has 2 full-time police officers assigned to our
narcotics unit. Since the unit was established in 1977 we have
been unable to add additional personnel. To say that the dual
unit has been extremely busy and barely able to scratch the
surface of local narcotics activity is an oversimplification.
In the first 6 months of 1987 this unit conducted 39 search
warrants, received 441 reported incidents of narcotics activity,
and conducted 50 under -the -influence exams. In the past 2 weeks,
2 detectives were assigned on a temporary basis to assist the
narcotics officers; they arrested 25 street drug users.
Thus far in 1987, the narcotics officers have cultivated 17
informants who have provided information in exchange for money or
a reduction/dismissal of charges. Recently patrol officers have
been assigned to undercover operations including foot patrol and
bike patrol. In these assignments they apprehended people openly
injecting narcotics in public view. Because of a manpower
shortage and increased calls for service, this attention to our
narcotics problem has been largely done on overtime and, of
necessity, has been limited.
ATTACHMENT B -5C
Because of a growing drug problem these efforts have been
initiated in an attempt to curtail increased local drug traffic.
Unfortunately, we cannot allocate additional resources on a
full-time basis; subsequently, our overall impact has been limited.
On October 1, 1987 Lodi Police Department will initiate the
Drug Suppression in the Schools Program in cooperation with Lodi
Unified School District. We have discussed our targeted offender
groups with the school superintendant. He concurs with our
projection that the Anti -Drug Abuse Program has great potential of
reducing drug activity city-wide as well as on school campuses.

5. PROJECT APPROACH
ATTACHMENT B -5D
Describe the general approach to be implemented by the proposed
project.
Single Component Proposal: Explain how the proposed project's
impact on the criminal/juvenile justice system will be absorbed.
Multicomponent Proposal: Describe the linkages between all the
participating components and agencies which will ensure the
necessary level of coordination and cooperation.
Multicomponent Proposal
In the past LPD has enjoyed an excellent working relationship
with the San Joaquin County District Attorney's office, San
Joaquin County Probation Department, and the Lodi Municipal
Court. Since 1974, San Joaquin County Probation Department has
assigned 2 full-time juvenile probation officers to work in
cooperation with our juvenile officers in a program known as
CO-OP. This program allows for immediate access to probation
officers for Lodi Police Officers and the citizens of Lodi as
probation has a satellite facility at our police department.
A full-time police officer works with the probation staff and
handles a similar juvenile caseload, thus gaining valuable
experience on how another component of the criminal justice system
works.
The probation officers work directly with our police officers
on individually selected cases and will at times work with the
officer in the field, thus gaining the perspective of a police
officer's first hand involvement.
ATTACHMENT B -5D
Also assigned to the police department is an adult probation
officer who currently works two weeks a month in our facility with
a caseload of approximately 350 adult probations. This probation
officer works closely with our Crime Analyst in the sharing of
offender information.
In 1984, 2 full time Deputy District Attorneys were assigned
to an office in our public safety building to work directly with
Lodi police personnel. This has improved intra -agency
communication, accelerated the court process, and established a
stronger network. This program was initiated due to the high
volume of cases filed in Lodi Municipal Court. There are more
cases filed in the Lodi Municipal Court than in the entire south
county area (Manteca, Tracy, Escalon and Ripon). Subsequently the
anticipated impact of the Anti -Drug Abuse Program necessitates a
full-time deputy to augment existing prosecution staff.
Lodi Police Department enjoys an excellent working
relationship with the 2 Municipal Court judges. They have
participated in a ride -along program with line personnel, and they
are involved in a public relations awareness series through our
department. They have made themselves easily accessible for
search warrants.
Because of past successful working relations, it is
anticipated that our networking capability will be brought to its
fullest potential in a multi -agency approach. Supporting this
joint endeavor are resolutions from both the Lodi City Council and
San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors.
To demonstrate the linkages between all components we offer
the following hypothetical scenario: at the start of the project
ATTACHMENT B -5D
the probation officer begins intensely supervising a case load of
25 narcotics offenders. One of the offenders is tested "dirty" on
two consecutive occasions. Subsequently he provides information
which leads to a potential dealer. The probation officer provides
a description of a possible suspect to the Crime Analyst who
searches the alpha and suspect files; a hit is obtained. The
suspect's residence and vehicle are identified in the automated
files. The narcotics enforcement team sets up surveillance and
gathers enough intelligence to obtain a search warrant with the
assistance of the District Attorney. A narcotics raid is
conducted and a moderate amount of crank is confiscated. Large
quantities of stolen property were recovered, an through the Crime
Analysis Unit were linked to six residential burglaries. The
District Attorney files charges, complete with all enhancements.
The suspect is vertically prosecuted, found guilty and receives a
prison sentence.
The County Drug Program Administrator has been advised of
Lodi's ADAP grant application. The only service he offers is PC
1000 Regular Diversion Program for first-time offenders. No
programs currently operating provide counseling or treatment
services for repeat narcotics offenders. He expressed a
willingness to work with us in the Diversion Program and has sent
a letter of support stating this.
The Clerk of the Court has agreed to assist in all data
collection and delay reduction activities needed for the court
component strategy.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
6. ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT
Briefly describe the anticipated impact (outcome) of the proposed
project on the target offender(s) in the target area, the
community and the criminal/juvenile justice system. Describe the
proposed project's impact on the target area's school and drug
treatment systems. *
There are 3 primary objectives this project will impact:
1) an increase in narcotics arrests, 2) a decrease in our crime
rate - specifically in the areas of burglary and theft, 3) an
improvement in the networking capability between the four project
components. Our success in these areas can be measured by the
following criteria:
1) 11550 H&S arrests (under the influence) will increase by 25%.
Through August of 1987, (53) 11550 arrests have been made.
2) 11350, 11357, 11377 H&S arrests (possession offenses) will
increase by 25%. Through August of 1987, (22) possession arrests
have been made.
3) 11351, 11378 H&S arrests (possession for sale) will increase by
25%. Through August of 1987, (43) possession for sale arrests
have been made.
*If the proposed project will impact school aged youth or schools, a
letter of support for the project is required from the school
district(s). If the project will impact or interface with locally
funded drug treatment programs, a letter of support for the project is
required from the County Drug Administrator. These letters of support
must indicate the relationship of the project and the inter -agency
coordination that has been established_
ATTACHMENT B -5E
4) 11352, 11379, 11353, 11360 H&S arrests (sales of drugs) will
increase by 25%. Through August of 1987, (33) sale of drug
arrests have been made.
5) All narcotics arrests by patrol will increase by 25% during the
grant period. Through August of 1987, (131) narcotics arrests
have been made.
6) During the grant period, residential burglaries will be reduced
by 10%. In the first 6 months of 1988, 190 residential burglaries
were reported.
7) During the grant period, commercial burglaries will be reduced
by 10%. In the first 6 months of 1987, 100 commercial burglaries
were reported.
8) It is anticipated that the impact of the intensive supervision
strategy will be a three -pronged result: 1) narcotic offenders on
probation will be remanded to custody for longer periods due to
positive urinalysis test results, 2) diversion programs for
first-time offenders should be more effective due to a strong
network between probation and the County Drug Program
Administrator, 3) probationers on this program will have a higher
arrest rate for new offenses.
9) Communication between all components will be enhanced:
information to probation, the courts and the District Attorney
will be exchanged, on a scheduled and frequent basis due to task
force involvement.
10) Due to vertical prosecution, narcotics offenders arrested on
felony charges will receive longer jail terms or state prison
sentences.
ATTACHMENT B -5E
11) The availability of a full time Deputy District Attorney will
greatly enhance the narcotics team's effectiveness in the
following ways: assistance with search warrants, advice on search
and seizure issues, additional training resources, an increase in
the number of forfeitures initiated, refinement of pre -arrest
strategies, and on -the -scene legal assistance.
12) During the grant period, defendants will be processed through
Lodi Municipal Court at an accelerated pace, thus removing them
from the community more quickly.
Perhaps the greatest impact will be the overall effect of
Lodi's comprehensive approach utilizing five in-house programs
which proactively respond to criminal offenses; these efforts will
now focus heavily on narcotics offenses and their perpetrators.
By coordinating our Crime Analysis Unit, the Career Criminal
Apprehension Program, Community Crime Resistance, the Selected
Traffic Enforcement Program and the School Drug Suppression
Program, all in cooperation with the Anti -Drug Abuse Program, we
believe the maximum information exchange can enhance the success
of each branch of our model program, and each of the components we
will be networking with.

Objective 2: During the grant year, increase the number of cases
meeting time -to -disposition standards as measured by:
a. The number of cases meeting time -to -disposition standards
during the previous twelve-month period was unknown. *
b. The number of cases meeting time -to -disposition standards
during the grant period.
Activities:
1) The eight percent of Lodi Municipal Court cases that exceed
time -to -disposition standards shall be brought within the time
frame by the end of the grant period. (Presently, 92% of
narcotics cases meet a time -to -disposition standard of 90 days or
less.)
2) The Project Deputy will aggressively prosecute all narcotics cases
working toward a final disposition of 60 days or less by the end
of the grant period.
3) Lodi Municipal Court is noted for its timely time -to -disposition
standard as compared to other courts in the county. For example,
courts in the south county are now setting trial dates for March
of 1988, Lodi is setting dates in November of 1987.

a. The number of continuances during the previous twelve-month
period was unknown.
b. The number of continuances during the grant year.
Activities:
1) By 12-15-87 the court clerk will design a form to collect data
regarding the number of continuances during the grant period.
2) By 01-15-88 the court clerk will collect a sampling to determine
the number of continuances in the previous 12 months. *
3) Lodi Municipal Court judges will resist case continuances whenever
possible during the grant period.
* NOTE: Judge Seibly and Captain Hansen have conferred on this
objective and feel a more accurate reflection of the results
would be to track whether or not the number of continuances
per case are reduced during the grant period. It is evident
that if this program is successful, the number of drug cases
processed through the court may double or even triple.
Subsequently, the number of overall continuances would
increase and show a false negative.

OPERATIONAL AGREEMENT
This memorandum serves as an agreement between Lodi Police Department
and the following agencies:
1) San Joaquin County District Attorney's Office
2) San Joaquin County Probation Department
3) Lodi Municipal Court
The purpose of this agreement is to set forth the specific
commitments of each agency to the Office of Criminal Justice
Planning's Anti -Drug Abuse Program. The contact persons for each
agency are:
Lodi Police Department -- Chief Floyd A. Williams, Captain John A.
Martin, Linda Porterfield
San Joaquin County District Attorney's Office -- John Phillips,
Craig Wischhusen

Lodi Police Department will be the implementing agency for this grant
project. We will provide the project director, project manager, and
fiscal officer. All funds will be directed to the City of Lodi for
distribution. In turn, Lodi Police Department will be responsible
for all mandatory reports required by OCJP and have staff attend all
required training for this project. our focus for the targeted
offenders will be on mid-level dealers and street level users. The
targeted area will be the incorporated limits of the City of Lodi.
The strategies we intend to use include street sweeps, a buy/bust
program, and special enforcement operations. The Lodi Police
Department will provide networking opportunities through the use of
the following in-house programs: Crime Analysis (C -CAP), Crime
Prevention Unit (CCR), School Drug Suppression Program (DSP),
existing narcotics unit, patrol and investigations personnel.
The project manager will oversee project operation and coordinate
activities by meeting on the following time frame with personnel as

Deputy District Attorney
and Probation Officer
weekly
Narcotics Enforcement Team
daily
The project manager will see that all quarterly and fiscal reports
are completed in a timely manner. The project manager will research
and/or investigate other resources for use in the suppression of
narcotics activities. The project manager and Captain Hansen will
see that narcotics, investigations and patrol personnel will
participate in in-house and POST sponsored training.
operational Agreement
Page 2
Lodi Police Department will also be responsible for allocating grant
funds for drug testing.
The San Joaquin County Probation Department recognizes that intensive
supervision of those on probation for drug offenses can deter or
detect drug using behavior which subsequently results in additional
crime.
To enhance the existing relationship with the Lodi Police Department
and the Probation Department, the Probation Department will
participate in the following strategies: intensive supervision and
involvement in the local Narcotics Task Force (which also includes
the project manager, the Lodi Police Department narcotics enforcement
team, and the Deputy District Attorney assigned to Lodi).
An experienced probation officer will work 40 hours per week with
locally identified targeted offenders. These offenders will receive
a minimum of 3 personal contacts per week, a minimum of 3 random
urinalysis tests per week, and a minimum of one in-home contact per
mont}L. The Probation Officer will assist Lodi Police Department in
searches of probationers and share intelligence information with the
Crime Analysis Unit and Narcotics Task Force.
The probation officer assigned to Lodi cases will work a schedule
including evening hours. The probation officer agrees to identify
members of the existing caseload who fit the targeted description;
these individuals will begin intensive supervision immediately upon
the implementation of this program.
The Lodi Municipal Court judges agree to enhance the administration
and processing of drug cases. To improve the processing of these
cases, Lodi Police Department agrees to provide urinalysis results
within 7 calendar days of the test, and to provide CII automated rap
sheets and/or existing rap sheets within 7 calendar days. Lodi
Police Department agrees to make every effort to obtain manual rap
sheets in a timely manner.
Lodi Municipal Court agrees to provide data for the tracking of
backlogged cases, meeting time -to -disposition standards, and
continuances on narcotics cases. One judge from Lodi Municipal Court
shall meet with the project manager and anti-drug abuse program staff
on a monthly basis.
Operational Agreement
Page 3
Grant funds shall be utilized by the Clerk of the Lodi Municipal
Court to employ one part-time clerical staff person an average of
sixty hours each biweekly pay period to assist in the timely
processing of files and preparation of court calendars. This shall
enhance the administration and processing of drug cases.
The Marshall of the Lodi Municipal Court will utilize a limited
amount of grant funds to pay overtime to Deputy Marshalls involved in
courtroom security and the transportation of prisoners. As
arraignments, preliminary hearings or trials of drug offenders may
require the court to remain in session for extended hours or require
additional prisoner transport trips to and from the San Joaquin
County Jail in French Camp, this provision will enable the Marshall
to cover overtime expenses.
The San Joaquin County District Attorney's Office in cooperation with
Lodi Police Department agrees to allocate a full-time Deputy District
Attorney on a special assignment to work with our Narcotics
Enforcement Team. This Deputy District Attorney will coordinate drug
filings, vertically prosecute felony narcotics offenses, prosecute
street -level users, and pursue arrest/forfeiture proceedings against
all defendants convicted of narcotics offenses. The Deputy District
Attorney will strive to insure the most severe sentence or commitment
is imposed on juvenile/adult defendants who are arrested through this
program. The Deputy District Attorney agrees to provide all data
necessary to monitor the stated objectives.

Dear Mr. Howenstein:
This letter is to express my support of Lodi Police
Department's grant application for your Anti -Drug Abuse
Program. I believe your agency can truly impact narcotics
activity in the City of Lodi and in surrounding areas with the
type of activity these funds will support.
As the Chief of a small department I can appreciate the
enthusiasm of Lodi Police Department over the prospect of
receiving additional funds that will allow them to
aggressively address the drug issue in ways not otherwise
possible. I stand ready to cooperate with the projected
efforts of the narcotics team, and hope to participate in a
proposed sting operation outlined in this grant.
I feel there is a strong potential of a direct benefit to my
community through the successful operation of Lodi's program.
My past experience has shown that many of the same people
victimize both our communities. Many individuals from Galt go
to Lodi for their narcotics activities and certainly vice
versa.
Subsequently, I unequivocally support Lodi's opportunity to
effectively impact narcotics offenses and the related criminal
activity.

Dear Mr. Howens tein :
This letter is to affirm our support for the Lodi Police Department's
grant application for the Anti -Drug Abuse Program funded by the Office
of Criminal Justice Planning.
As the Adult Parole Office which has responsibility for the supervision
of parolees that reside in the Lodi area, we recognize that there is an
increasing problem with narcotics. We also believe that a strong
enforcement program within the City of Lodi will serve as a deterrent
to those who sell and use narcotics. Also, vital to any program should
be a public information program, so that our youth will be made aware
of the dangers of substance abuse, especially illegal narcotics.
The Parole and Community Services Division has always had excellent
cooperation with the Lodi Police Department and, if you need any
assistance from us regarding the implementation of this program, please
do not hesitate to ask.
Very truly yours,
Stanley Gallaghe

Dear Mr. Howenstein,
On June 23, 1987, the Lodi Unified School District Governing Board
approved support for the Anti -Drug Abuse program funded by the Office of
Criminal Justice Planning. This grant would enable the school district and the
Lodi Police Department to work together in a comprehensive program at seven
targeted schools, which will provide for: 1) anti-drug abuse curricula in K-12
classrooms, 2) assembly programs, and 3) inservices for teachers, counselors,
administrators and parents on intervention. Our Governing Board agreed to
support this cooperative effort by approving an expenditure of $13,000 in
matching funds.
The City of Lodi has a population of 47,000+ and an area of approximately
10 square miles. Substance abuse is on a rapid increase in our schools, as
well as in our city. It is important that the local police department and the school
district work together in the areas of prevention, intervention and treatment of
drug abuse. Presently, the police department has only two officers assigned to
its narcotics division.
The police department is now applying for an anti-drug abuse program
which would double the narcotics force and target mid-level dealers and street -
level drug offenders. Lodi Unified School District supports the Lodi Police
Department application for this grant. We have had an excellent working
relationship in the past and look forward to continuing our association in those
efforts affecting the youth of our community.
