Perfecto Villarreal, Executive Director cc:
SUBJECT:
SPECIAL ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM BY CONTRA COSTA COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize provision of $15,000 in Housing Authority funds to the Contra Costa
County Sheriff's Department for continuation of the special drug enforcement program;
as, recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
In the preparation of the 1987-88 Housing Authority operating budget, funds
were budgeted and approved for the continuation of the Contra Costa County Sheriff's
Department special drug enforcement program.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
On August 18, 1986 the Housing Authority provided the Contra Costa County
Sheriff's Department with $15,000 to continue a special drug enforcement program for
the 1986-87 county fiscal year. On July 8, 1987 the Housing Authority received a
report from the Sheriff's Department on the results of the special drug enforcement
program. In addition, the Housing Authority received a refund check from the
Sheriff' s Department in the amount of $8045.73 in unexpended funds.
A total of 44 cases were initiated by the Narcotics Bureau resulting in the
identification, arrest or criminal prosecution of 38 individuals. Fifteen search
warrants were also served. A total of 18 persons have been charged with one or more
felonies, 4 persons charged with misdemeanors and 16 additional persons identified as
dealers with criminal investigations continuing on these persons.
In the past four years, this special drug enforcement program has been very
successful . It has reduced the amount of drug-related criminal activity in housing
developments located in the unincorporated areas of the county serviced by the
Sheriff's Department.
For the 1987-88 county fiscal year, the Sheriff's Department is requesting that
funds be provided by the Housing Authority to continue this special drug enforcement

program and at its Regular Meeting on Monday, July 20, 1987, the Advisory Housing
Commission voted to recommend provision of $15,000 in Housing Authority funds to the
Sheriff's Department for continuation of the special drug enforcement program for the
1987-88 county fiscal year.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners fail to respond positively to this request,
the amount of drug-related criminal activity in housing developments located in the
unincorporated areas of the county serviced by the Sheriff' s Department would
increase sharply. Additionally, the Board of Commissioners would be acting in a
manner contrary to its position to provide safe housing for low-income families in
Contra Costa County.
