Our population is now approximately 125,000. Because of this surge in growth, we are concerned about our crime rate. We have seasonal unemployment because we are predominantly an oil and agricultural community. Many people leave the smaller communities and move to Bakersfield to try to find work. Unfortunately, the need for money and lack of it, turns people to crime. Burglars tend to look at the slightly higher socio-economic areas as a mea~s of obtaining money and luxury items that they can turn into hard cash. Another easy prey is the elderly. We have an extremely large senior 'citizens community that needs direction and education in crime resistance, and is seeking our help. We believe that we can be of service to these people if we have the funds and manpower to form an organizational structure -and a networking system into all of the neighborhoods of the city. With this networking system which we plan to work through Neighborhood Watch, we will have direct contact and a relay system (of information) through the community leaders and their block captains. We plan to have an active speakers bureau, establish drug awareness programs for our youh, promote Operation ID and directly involve our senior citizens in Crime Prevention. All of the above have been touched upon previously but because of lack of funds, we have had no real impact on our city. With the proper funds and personnel we believe that we can establish a Comprehensive Community Crime Resistance Program. CiI'Y/COUIIFY WiDE SF~[ISI'ICS ~,iaj,)r Crh'les -- ,3,~rd 1 ary H~ r,j I d r'y Attachment 5 TARGET AREA DESCRIPTION (Use additional pages it more space is needed) (Refer to CCR Program Guidelines Pages 16 and 17, Section A for instructions on Target Area Description.) Narrative: Our target area contains approximately 8 individual neighborhoods comprised of residences, businesses and 2 large senior citizens communities. This area was chosen because each individual neighborhood has a strong sense of community spirit and has a spotty history of N.W. programs. The areas have been hit by many burglaries and although our burglary rate has decreased, these areas are in a high enough socio-economic rate that they are attractive to burglars. The senior citizen areas are comprised of (1) a retirement resort ty~e facility and (2) a large senior citizens community with it's own "town hall" and recretional center. The seniors in this community are eager to participate in our project and welcome a study and the formation of neighborhood watch programs in their area. The entire area covers -4 square miles and is a heavily populated one. The Southwest area of aKersfield has grown rapidly in the past 10 years. We have had a surge of building and a tremendous growth in population, particularly from the Los Angeles area and from Texas. We believe that our target area is an ideal one in which to begin C ' our ommunity Crime Resistance Program.

We have participated at elementary schools with our "dangerous stranger" and "McGruff Safety Programs", and are involved in a youth softball league in the minority areas. We have 2 detectives who, among their other administrative duties, present Neighborhood Watch programs. However, due to the lack of funds and manpower, we have not had full time Neighborhood Watch Directors. We have recently participated in a "Crime Prevention Fair" (copy of the program attached) with our Crime Prevention Task Force. The Task Force was formed as a result of the meeting in Fresno in May of 1982 (Ounces of Prevention), and has been active in the community since its inception. They are a group of approximately 20 people who are volunteers and representatives of the community. All of the members of the Task Force participated in the Crime Prevention Fair and are directly responsible for its success. We are considering the idea of subcontracting with the Task Force in the implementation of this grant, if we are successful in obtaining the grant. - Attachment g WORKING RELATIONSHIPS Agency/Organization Role California Highway Coroners Office AAA Bakersfield Parks Kern County Parks Patrol & Recreation Dept. & Recreation Dept.

While the Bakersfield Police Department, with the Chief of Police being the program coordinator, will be primarily involved in this activity, the program grant request and much of the participation is as a direct response from various civilian volunteers who are interested in crime prevention; namely, those members of the Crime Prevention Task Force of Kern County, who will also be the moving force of the program, should it be approved. We recognize that crime prevention is the only real crime reduction method available, as all the others merely attack the symptoms and ~e would like to attack the causes. Your consideration would be appreciated. Sincerely, R. O. PRICE Chief of Police ROE: srnl 1601 TRUXTUN AVENUE ' BAKERSFIELD, CALIF©RhIIA 93301 ' (805) 326-3821
