SERGEANT GREG ZOLLNER
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 97-xx AUTHORIZING
SAFE AND SOBER COMMUNITIES FUNDING FOR THE PERIOD
FROM OCTOBER 1, 1997 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1998.
SEPTEMBER 2, 1997
A joint application for Prior Lake and Savage has
been submitted to the Minnesota Department of
Public Safety for grant money under the Safe and
Sober Communities program. This program puts
patrol officers on the street during designated
enforcement periods. The departments will work in
unison and identify target areas for enforcement.
A resolution by the governing body receiving the
grant money must be adopted. In our case, both
communities are required to adopt a resolution.
Both communities have seen an increase in motor
vehicle traffic due to additional housing
developments and entertainment opportunities
available in the communities. Motor vehicle
accidents and complaints regarding driving
violations are a common occurrence in both
communities.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) provides funding for this program. They
have identified the top two traffic safety
priorities as the reduction of impaired driving
and the increase of safety belt and child seat
use.
Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for
people between the ages of one and 34 and the
leading cause of work-related death for all ages.
They cause more cases of quadriplegia, paraplegia
and adult-onset epilepsy than any other factor.
In Minnesota during 1996, 36% of motor vehicle
deaths and at least 11% of motor vehicle injuries
were alcohol-related (205 people killed and 5,322
people injured). Only 30% of the 462 people
killed in motor vehicles were wearing seat belts
or in a child safety seat. Only 64% of
Minnesota's general motoring population uses
safety belts.

AN EQUI\L OPPORTUNITY E\-1PLOYER
Research shows enforcement alone does not have a
lasting effect on a driver's behavior. However,
combining increased enforcement with high
publicity has been found to result in long-lasting
improvements. These efforts are referred to as
Special Traffic Enforcement Programs (STEPs).
This will be the fourth year of the program in
Minnesota.
Two major components of Safe and Sober are:
1. Public Information and Education
2. Traffic Law Enforcement
Minnesota's Safe and Sober campaign focuses on
four waves of enhanced enforcement and public
information activities. All four waves are
designed to increase belt use and decrease
impaired driving. Each wave also has a different
sub-focus to keep media attention high.
The four waves for Minnesota's Safe and Sober
campaign will be conducted around Thanksgiving and
December party times, May proms and graduations,
Independence Day and Labor Day.
Through the use of this grant money, both
communities will be able to participate in the
campaign, while still maintaining regular patrol
functions. Officers are paid to work extra shifts
at their respective overtime rate. Regularly
scheduled patrol shifts will not be affected by
the special shifts for the campaign. Officers
will not be taken off the street and reassigned to
work the campaign.
The total Federal grant amount is $25,300.00. Of
this amount, 85% ($22,OOO.00) is allocated for
overtime enforcement hours. The remaining 15%
($3,300.00) is allocated for administration. This
will mainly be used for clerical support.
The Savage Police Department is the lead agency
for this grant. Prior Lake is the partner agency.
Savage Police Chief Gordon Vlasak is designated
as the fiscal agent and administrator for this
grant.
The partnership with Savage Police Department,
allows both agencies to pool resources. Resources
include equipment, personnel, support staff and
prosecution. All of these resources should help
to make this a successful campaign.
Included with this report are copies of the
application, proposed budget and basic agreement
that was filed with the Minnesota Department of
Public Safety. The basic agreement provides
details concerning our objectives and estimated
enforcement hours.
ISSUES: The grant is a one year effort. Does the council
believe that this is an appropriate area of police
concentration during the coming year? This is
another example of cooperation between Prior Lake
and other public agencies to deliver services most
economically. Do such efforts still have the City
Council's support. There is always some hazard
potential associated with enforcement efforts.
Does the council believe that the hazards and
concentration of personnel and equipment to
accomplish these stated objectives are
appropriate?
ALTERNATIVES: Council has the following alternatives:
1. Accept the grant money and adopt Resolution
97-xx.
2. Table action on this report until a later
date.
3. Deny approval of the Safe and Sober grant.
FISCAL IMPACT: The project is funded by a $25,300.00 one year
grant from the Federal government. The City's
contribution includes:
1. Clerical
2. Administrative
3. Equipment
4. Prosecution and court time
This contribution is included in the draft 1998
Police budget.
NOTE-A portion of the clerical and administrative
costs will be covered by the grant.
RECOMMENDATION:Alternative #1. Accept the grant money for the
Minnesota Safe and Sober Communities campaign.
ACTION REQUIRED:Motion and second to adopt Resolution #97-xx
accepting funding for the Minnesota Safe and
Sober Communities campaign for the period from
October 1, to S ptember 30, 1998.

SAVAGE AND PRIOR LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
SAFE & SOBER PROPOSAL
COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION
The cities of Savage and Prior Lake are rapidly growing cities located in the northeast comer of Scott County.
The cities are bordered by Bloomington on the north (naturally divided by the Minnesota River), Burnsville on
the east, Shakopee to the west, Spring Lake and Credit River Townships to the south.
The cities each host businesses/activities that increase traffic volumes in the area. Prior Lake is home to two of
the metropolitan areas largest lakes, Prior Lake and Spring Lake. It is also the home to the areas largest casino,
Mystic Lake. Both these sites offer a host of recreational activities and generate enormous amounts of traffic
through the cities.
Savage is the home to Port Richard's and Port Cargill. These grain ports generate a significant amount of truck
traffic during various times of the year. The truck traffic comes into Savage via Highway 13 from the south
through Prior Lake, Highway 101 from the west through Shakopee or Highway 13 from the east off 35W.
Other terminal manufacturing and warehousing industries also create a significant amount of commercial travel
throughout the cities.
The Cities of Savage and Prior Lake encompass four school districts: Burnsville; Shakopee; Prior Lake; and
Bloomington. A new elementary school was completed in 1991, and a new junior high school in 1996. Both
are located in the City of Savage and were completed for the Bumsvillt1-Savage school district. A new Prior
Lake-Savage school district elementary school is scheduled to open in the fall of 1997. Completion of an
addition to the Prior Lake-Savage junior high school is also being completed in 1997.
The rapid rate of growth in Prior Lake and Savage places an inordinate demands on the existing roadways
through the cities. This in turn increases the demand on police officers in the area of traffic enforcement. Due to
the uncertain nature of police work, no Department, under normal circumstances can devote as much time as it
would like to traffic enforcement. Only when enforcement is directed and specific, can a Department hope to
effectively influence the behaviors of those using the city roadways. Through the benefit of this grant, the
Savage and Prior Lake Police Departments will be able focus their efforts more directly toward traffic safety
and move toward the goal of achieving a community that is SAFE & SOBER.
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
The Project Area Compared to the State of Minnesota
The cities of Savage and Prior Lake make up the designated project area for this proposal. Like other
communities, are experiencing increasing numbers of speed, traffic and alcohol related offenses. Evidence of
this phenomenon can be demonstrated by the following statistics:
. The average number of persons injured and killed, for the years 1994-1996, in alcohol-related traffic
accidents in the project area per 100,000 persons, is 124.6. In this category, the designated project area is
ranked 149th and the State is ranked 147th. The project area is above the State average. .

SAVAGE AND PRIOR LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
SAFE & SOBER PROPOSAL
· Occupants killed and injured where seat belt use was reported not used or unknown in the project area per
100,000 people is 305.7. This is below the State average.
· [he numoer of people killed and l11jured in alcohol-related crashes per million miles driven in the project
area during 1994 - 1996 is 17.7. In this category, the designated project area is ranked l43rd and the State
is ranked 98th. The project area is well above the State average.
. The average nwnber of occupants killed or injured where seat belt usage was not known or unknown, per
million miles driven, in the project area is 43.5. In the category, the designated project area is ranked 84th
and the State is ranked 69th. The project area is well above the State average.
. In 1995, the State of Minnesota conducted a survey on the use of alcohol, tobacco and marijuana by
students in the Prior Lake-Savage School District. The survey showed the level of alcohol, tobacco and
marijuana use among students in the Prior Lake-Savage School District greatly exceeded the state average.
Significant increases in the traffic volwne throughout the project area have certainly contributed to the increase
in traffic-related offenses, The level of traffic traveling through the project area can best be illustrated with the
following information:
. Highway 13, Highway 101, County Road 18, and County Road 42 funnel a significant amount of traffic
west through the project area to Valleyfair, Canterbury Park, Renaissance Fair, Murphy's Landing, Mystic
Lake, Prior Lake (the lake), and the Burnsville Center. Each of these venues draws hundreds of thousands
of visitors annually. This poses a unique problem for the cities throughout the year with respect to traffic
enforcement as visitors travel to these destinations.
. In addition to visitors to these locations, two of these sites are considered to be major employers in Scott
County. Mystic Lake Casino is Scott County's largest employer with 3,500 employees. Valleyfair
employs 1,200 seasonal employees. The Casino estimates they have 16,000 to 18,000 customers per day.
The Casino is open seven days a week, 24-hours a day. At the Casino there is a 230 room motel and a RV
park.
County Road 42 is a major east-west artery through the project area. A traffic count of County Road 42
indicates that approximately 24,800 cars travel this road daily. County Road 42 handles a great deal of traffic
for Mystic Lake Casino (24-hours per day, 365 days per year) Canterbury Park, and the Burnsville Center.
Projections for this area estimate that by the year 2010,40,000 cars per day will visit and pass through the
project area via County Road 42.
PRIOR ENFORCEMENT AND RELATED ACTMTIES
In 1988, a group of concerned citizens of Prior Lake formed a Highway 13 task force. There had been a great
nwnber of serious traffic accidents that had caused death and injury. Their goal was to lower the speed limit on
STH 13 from 55 m.p.h. to 45 m.p.h. The group met with the MNDOT personnel and was successful. The group
continues to receive an traffic annual traffic report from the Prior Lake Police.

SA V AGE AND PRIOR LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
SAFE & SOBER PROPOSAL
Since 1994 the cities of Prior Lake and Savage been actively participating in the SAFE & SOBER Challenge.
The cities also sponsor and participate in the State Patrol Arrive Alive, D.A.R.E., Children's Bike Rodeo,
Children's Safety Camp. Youth Firearms Safety Course. Citizens Academy. and local community festivals.
These programs aid the cities efforts to increase individual awareness of personal safety by advocating the use
of seat belts, child safety seats, and bicycle helmets. Recent expansion of these curriculums include
information on drunk driving and speeding. Parents are encouraged to attend, and learn, with their children.
The SAFE & SOBER program has been particularly helpful in the cities educational and enforcement efforts.
With the assistance of the SAFE & SOBER Challenge the cities have obtained Public Service Announcements
for broadcast on the local cable television channel and numerous brochures for distribution throughout the
communities. In 1996, the City of Savage received first place in the Chief s Challenge resulting in a $1,500
award. Combined with a City contribution of $2,500, the Police Department purchased a laser gun for speed
enforcement.
PUBLIC AND MEDIA RELATIONS
Community Support and Involvement
The cities of Prior Lake and Savage are fortunate to have a high level of community involvement in the area of
traffic safety. The Police Departments have been active not only in enforcement, but also in educating the
public in regards to traffic safety. These efforts have been complemented by the local student councils, school
districts, SADD, MADD, PTO's, and the local Cable Television company. Examples of community
involvement include:
. A $200.00 donation from the Eagle Ridge Junior High Student Council to purchase three sets of physically
impaired vision goggles to educate the public. Local DARE programs will contribute the remaining
$400.00.
. Savage Police arranged for the Savage, Belle Plaine, New Prague and Jordan school districts to have the
MADD crashed snowmobile on exhibit in the schools. This was done in conjunction with the SADD
groups.
. The local cable television company continually airs PSA's regarding traffic safety.
. The local MADD group regularly makes donations to the cities. This enabled the purchase of an Alco-
Sensor and a video camera for recording DWI arrests. This camera is mounted in a squad car.
. MADD will display a crashed car from the Minnesota MADD at the local community festivals.
. The Savage Police Department trained its School Resource Officer in Junior High D.A.R.E. This course is
scheduled to start Fall 1997.
. The Prior Lake D.A.R.E. program is fully funded through community donations. The D.A.R.E. officer is a
member of SAT (Student Assessment Team)
. The Prior Lake Police School Resource Officer instructs the GREAT (Gang Resistance Education and
Training) Program.

SA V AGE AND PRIOR LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
SAFE & SOBER PROPOSAL
The Project Manager, Sergeant Gene Smith, will be responsible for implementing and carrying out the media
campaign. Information regarding the Safe & Sober campaign will be disseminated from Sergeant Smith to the
media and 1l1lhlic. The '1lerli:l/~llhli~ rehti()n~ c1mpaign will follow the guidelines of the S.A,FE & SOBER
program. Additional activities will include, but not necessarily be limited, to the following items:
. Completion of requirements of State SAFE & SOBER program.
. Participate in SAFE & SOBER kick-off.
. Participate in SAFE & SOBER Chief s Challenge for 1998.
. Arrange for Minnesota State Patrol Arrive Alive presentation at Junior and Senior High Schools.
. Sponsor a child safety seat clinic.
. Demonstrate traffic safety at Dan Patch Days Community Festival.
. Include SAFE & SOBER message with utility billings.
. Obtain and post signs proclaiming "SAFE & SOBER COMMUNITY".
. Local liquor store advertisements encouraging responsible drinking.
. Educate liquor store employees in the identification of underage drinkers.
. Secure Mayoral Proclamation for a SAFE & SOBER year.
. Work with school officials to organize a mock crash scene at the Senior High.
ENFORCEMENT REASONING
In the coming year, the cities of Savage and Prior Lake will continue their proactive enforcement stance. Due
to the demand of the continually growing population, however, it is becoming increasingly difficult to remain
proactive when the time of most officers is consumed reacting to citizen calls. The assistance of a SAFE &
SOBER grant will allow the two Departments to remain proactive rather than reactive.
The cities of Savage and Prior Lake SAFE & SOBER project will strive to achieve the following objectives:
. Two contacts per hour of overtime traffic enforcement.
. Half of contacts resulting in a citation being issued.
. Twenty percent of all contacts being related to seat belt of child restraint violations
Officers participating in the grant will be asked to sign a contract outlining the objectives of the proposal.
Officers meeting or exceeding the goals will receive an award from the city council.
Overtime Enforcement
The objectives of the SAFE & SOBER project will be met through the coordination of activities as outlined
below:
-Page 4-
SA V AGE AND PRIOR LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
SAFE & SOBER PROPOSAL
Impaired Driving Focus
Officers will work one person per car. lO-hour shifts. Shifts will run from 5 :00 p.m. - 3 :00 a.m.
Statistical data shows that over 50% of DWI arrests occur during this time period.
Youth Focus
Officers will work one person per car, lO-hour shifts. Shifts will run from 5:00 p.m. - 3:00 a.m. The
cities have adopted a "zero tolerance" for alcohol, tobacco, and curfew violations. The Project Officer
will work closely with the School Resource Officer to gather information regarding spontaneous youth
gatherings which may encourage illegal activities.
Seat Belts
Two Officers will work five hour shifts. These shifts will run from 5:30 a.m. - 10:30 a.m., or 2:00 p.m.
- 7:00 p.m. This time period encompasses "rush hour ". Two officers working simultaneously allows
use of the laser gun.
Safe Driving Focus
Two Officers will work five hour shifts. These shifts will run from 5:30 a.m. - 10:30 a.m., or 2:00 p.m.
- 7:00 p.m. This time period encompasses "rush hour ". Two officers working simultaneously allows
use of the laser gun.
Training
All Officers involved in the SAFE & SOBER Campaign will complete SFST and OPUE training and
other training mandated by the Project. In addition as many officers as practicable will attend the 1997
DWI/Traffic Safety Law training sponsored by the MN County Attorneys Association. The costs for
training the officers will be paid by the cities.
EVALUATION
Success of the Savage and Prior Lake SAFE & SOBER Campaign will be measured by:
. Whether officers working the SAFE & SOBER Campaign achieved at least three contacts per hour.
. At least one-half of the contacts will be for citations rather than warnings.
. Whether 20% of all contacts were related to seat belt or child restraint violations.
. Whether traffic accidents at the selected sites were reduced by 5% compared to the previous 12 month
period.
