FROM:
Douglas M. Anderson ounty Administrator
DATE:
June 28, 2004
RE:
Jail Overcrowding
BACKGROUND:
Monday, June 21S\ the Jail Overcrowding Subcommittee held their first meeting consisting
of Captain Walsh and Major Tighe of the Sheriff's Office, Jody Renc of the Public
Defender's Office, and Jason Berger of the State Attorney's Office. It should be noted that
Jason Berger and Major Tighe traveled to Alachua County with Commissioner Barnes and
myself on June 1ih. The attached report, prepared by this subcommittee, contains
suggestions to assist in alleviating jail overcrowding. The report also discusses their review
of 1,230 inmates and their findings and opinions. Also attached is listing of those inmates.
The "X's" mean that they were determined ineligible for release by one of the agencies.
Attached is a June 5th list of 25 inmates that have been identified to be transferred to
Highlands County. Judge Angelos called me Friday and said that she would issue a Court
Order to transfer these inmates once I have submitted it to her.
Captain Hinman of Highlands County has contacted me on several occasions stating that
Highlands County is receiving pressure from other counties to rent beds to them. At this
time, he is holding these beds for us.
RECOMMENDA TlON:
Staff is requesting direction from the Board on the transfer of 25 inmates to Highlands
County.

The sµggestion has been raised to conduct a County Court Jail Docket every Friday moming
(rcgardless oft1\e alphabet of the defendant, as is done in Martin County). A final docket would
be set by the clerks office, and would be provided to the State Att()meys, :Public Defend~rs,~d

3.) Suggestion: Package Plea AgrEe:IIlents
a.) An attempt should be made by all to resolve all of a defendants
pending felony cases at me same rime with his/her other pending
cases (felony and misdemeBIlor.) ,
b.) An attempt should be made by all to resolve all of a defenda:nts
pending misdemeanor cases at the same Q.me vrifu his/her other pe)1din~
misdemeanor cases.
The suggestiön is to have: a standing Administrative Order al1ow:ing County Court Cases
to be transferred to Circ.uit COUl-t for purposes of resolvwg package plea agreewents.
4.) Suggestion: Plea Agreements at First AppeßIaD.ce
Currently, the S1- Lucie County judiciary t~e tums handling f11'st a.ppearances on a. weekly basis
These first appearance hearings occur during various times, depending on whichj~ge is
handÍing thero. The suggestion is to have a 1 :00 PM concrete time in wbich first appearances arc
scheduled and handled (other Circuits have a retired''''first appearance" judge handle first
appearances in the afternoon.) There are currently an average cÌ 15 to 40 first åppca.rances per
day. With a finite 1:00 PM schedul~ for first appeara.u,fes, both the State A~omoy's Office ànd
the Public Defenders Office can schedule for and be ',Rresent to attempt to resolve misdemeanor
cases (not involving victims.) This suggestion would require the clerks office to furnish the SAO
v>'ith a copy oftb.e arrest affidavit, NCICI FCIC and/or drivers liceme records, so that ancc.c-'
infor:r.o.ed plea offer cån be made (currently the State Attorney'.$ Office does not receive-my
pqperwork atfust appearances.) Othervlise, without any paperv.rork o'r information, the State
cannot be prePared to make any plea offers, '

5.) Baker ActslMental Health Patients: "
Currently there are se~era1 mentally ill indivitl~ beïng booked into the jail becau5e-'tl~~~~;;}~-~-
health receiving! treatment facilities are full, and/or will not admit them. Not only do many of
these jnd~.viduals not belong injail~ but they are also taking up space ill the jails m~dica1 unit
(which more than doubles the daily cosis.) The suggemon is to work with law enforc~mcnt and
the mental health coro.rouníty tò improve the mental health process and ensure that individuals
who require mental health treab:o.~nt are properly placed in a mental health facility.
----~~~--'
6.) Notices to Appear/Arrests Made by Law Enforcement:
Currently the jail has be~n doing Notices To Appear on those individuals eligible for xelease
upon a.o:~st. The: p~rson is arrested, fingerprin~oo, booked, photographed, and then released on the
notice to appear. This process has helped the jail overcrowding s1tllation tremendo11S1y, while
also ensuring that the defenmwt's arrest is properly documented.

7.) Suggestion: Upgrade the jails fIrst appearance room to a. courtroom setting
Curre:n:t.ly, the jails fust appearance room has very'poor a~oustics. The 5ugge.stiOD is to upgr.ade~
the jails 11rst appearance room to a courtroom setting with proper acoustics, carpeting, aLd
permanent seating. (See the first appearance rooms in Alachua, Bra-ward, Dade and Orange
Counties.)
8.) Electronic Monitoring! GPS System with or VIlthout requited day reportip.g:
Thïs I)ugge~tîon would allow qualified offenders to remain out of jail (pre-trial) on an electtomc
monitor. The offender would be required to pay for the monitor a.t a cua:ent est:iroate of $1.00 per
day. Offenders could also be required to check in daily \vith a reporting officer.

Douglas M. AndersonfJiounty Administrator

DATE:

RE:
Criminal Justice System Assessment
I have contacted both Allegheny County (Pittsburgh, PA) and Hillsborough County (FL.),
regarding their experiences with the Institute for Law and Policy Planning (ILPP) and the
Criminal Justice System Assessments performed by them.
Alleqhenv County
Contact: Ray Bil/otte, District Court Administrator
Mr. Billotte said that Dr. Alan Kalmanoff, Executive Director for lLPP, was fabulous and that
he made significant strides in dealing with the criminal jusflèe system while dealing with
egos and politics. Allegheny County was so happy with the first work product performed by
ILPP that they brought them back for a second time under a second contract. Some of the
first issues they addressed were jail overcrowding and probation. He said they identified
and narrowed down the key problems and presented options to the County. One of the
outcomes from this assessment was the establishment of a Criminal Justice Policy Board

could not have been more positive regarding the work product performed by ILPP. The

the jail. They suggested two or three things that helped additional pre-trial interaction.
However, one of their suggestions was not implemented because of the Bail Bondsmen's . ..---

She said this study helped a lot and also the study has opened the door for many grants

St. Lucie County, Florida
Criminal Justice System Assessment
ORIENT A TION
Identifying the assessment's mission and facilitating communication at the beginning of a study
has a direct impact on how the consultants and criminal justice officials interact throughout the
project. This orientation meeting will be a chance for Judges, the Court Administrator, Chief
Probation Officer, Sheriff, Public Defenders, city Law Enforcement, County Commission and
County Administrator refine the work plan, identify problems and clarify goals.
TASK DETAILS
TASK 1:
Assessment of Inmate Population
Understanding the nature and dynamic of the offender population and its propensity to grow and
change in the future is a major basis for other planning elements in the criminal justice system
study. Offenders, after all, create the demand, which drives the need for most services.
1.1 Inmate background information
A profile of the inmate population describes criminal, adjudication, behavioral, social, and
demographic characteristics of the group at a specific point in time. A representative sample of
inmates from the county's jail facility will be sampled and data collected on each.
Some of the data characteristics that ILPP will collect for analysis include:
.
Demographic (age, race, sex)
Offense (felonies, misdemeanors)
Prior Arrests and Convictions
Residence
Release Modes and Mechanisms
Employment Status
Arresting Agency
Adjudication Status
Custody Security_Levd______ .--,-
Use of Bail/Bond
.-"--..--.--- - ------
- - .,.-.--.. --- -.--.----
.
An independent classification system based on national standards and the National Institute of
Corrections' model is used to re-classify the profile sample. This will test the county's
classification system in terms of its usefulness for long-term corrections planning as well as for
its impact on the jail population. The profile also may point to many possible areas of delay in
the post arrest processing system.

Criminal Justice System Assessment
St. Lucie County, Florida
"
ILPP chooses a two-week sample of bookings in two representative periods over a year to follow
offenders through the county's system. Generally, booking rosters and jail population data
provide the data needed to complete the analysis.
The tracking analysis begins with a cross-tabulation of booking charges and release modes. The
number of cases and average length of stay for each charge-release pair can highlight areas where
processing could be accelerated. This is a powerful tool in evaluation of overall system flow.
The tracking analysis complements the profile by adding factors such as average length of stay,
the impact of out-of-custody bookings (e.g., an arrestee who is cite-released in the field by an
arresting officer and then brought in for photos and fingerprinting), and release modes broken
down by charge.
TASK2:
Crime and inmate population projections
ILPP gathers demographic data on the county to identify growth patterns for the general
population and for crime prone age-cohorts. A 20-year projection model will then be developed.
Examination of demographic data (criminal record, age, residence, income, etc.), which is
compared with national crime and arrest trends to identify groups who are most likely to
comprise the future inmate population.
To create the projection model, ILPP begins by collecting data on arrests, crime rates, booking
rates, and county and state population growth using census and local planning department data,
and prior studies.
In developing the model, consideration is' also given to policy factors that have an impact on jail
population. These include: the court-ordered jail population caps, various programs that are
alternatives to courts and jails, state sentencing laws, and other policies and practices which
could have a direct or indirect impact on court and inmate population growth or decline. ___ _n____
TASK 3:
System-wide Assessment and Evaluation
3.1 Criminal Justice Agency Roles
All criminal justice agencies will be contacted at the project's outset, and meetings and
interviews with department heads and staff will occur as the project develops. Prior to interview
scheduling, ILPP requests currently available data from each agency or office relating to budgets,
staffing, workload, and annual/monthly reports. The data allows ILPP staff to prepare for --------
interviews, but more importantly, to acquaint the team with the nature of the county's ________n__
organization overall, and the types of available current resource allocation.

Role of External Factors
1. Management Information Systems
Although county administration does not have an impact on the jail population to the immediate
degree that other system elements do, the indirect impact of its role is significant. Control over
the budget and organization of certain departments playa role in criminal justice administration.
The impact of state legislation, data and reporting requirements, statewide planning initiatives as
well as mandates, etc., will all be reviewed.
ILPP will interview the County Commission, the County Administrator as well as any assistants
responsible for public safety issues. ILPP will work with each agency's staff to obtain data on
planning and facility development. Similar interviews and data gathering will occur with
relevant state officials.

4. Performance Goals and Costs
ILPP will review performance goals for the alternative programs. Overall system efficiency,
perfonnance and cost benefits will guide the review. System perfonnance should maximize
public safety, security and management control subject to the constraints of staff and budget.
TASK 4:
System Coordination RecommendationslManagement Plan
4.1 Range of Programs Assessment and Recommendations
Improvements will be recommended in the areas of programs offered, resource allocation,
operational practices, and program participation. The range of programs offered will be
evaluated in light of population findings to identify how well program mix addresses the
characteristics of the county's offender population.
4.2 Case Processing Efficiency and Savings
Case processing is directly related to jail population and specifically to lengths of stay. The case
processing analysis will begin with interviews of court personnel and attorneys to define the
nature of the case processing system in St. Lucie County. ILPP then assesses areas where
changes might speed the process. One important factor will be examining case processing in
conjunction with a review of management information systems. A second area of review will
look at relationships among agencies: the courts with jail management; public defender with the
courts, prosecution and public defender, etc.
4.3 Database integration and Management Information Systems and Costs
Court operations as well as jail and cietention facility. populations can only be effe?t.iyely
managed with an accessible, useful, and consistent management infonnation system. Whether
manual or automated, it is necessary that the appropriate data be collected in the first place, and
employed systematically. In the justice systems, information management has afi extremely high
potential for enonnous costs and enormous savings as well as enonnous errors and/or
misdirection.
___u _ _._ __ __ ___ __ -
ILPP has found in many cases that the system was established to track the progress of individual
cases through the adjudication process. The requirements of a population management system
often differ from this and the appropriate information cannot always be easily extracted from
case records. For the most obvious example, thë court system may record the number and m
disposition of cases through a system, while the jail manager is more interested in individuals
moving through the system and how many charges are pending against them.

Criminal Justice System Assessment
Areas of review will include:
The structure and ease of data transfer among elements in the overall data system.
Availability of data appropriate for routine tracking analysis: number of inmates
and their length of stay, arrayed by primary charge and release mode.
For population projections, a breakdown of historical populations into various
categories (e.g., male/female x felony/misdemeanors x pretrial/post-sentence).
Adherence to data-gathering protocols.
Accuracy of the results as perceived by local officials.
Interface ability with other county criminal justice information systems (data
systems used by the courts, state networks, county data processing).
The adult and juvenile systems will be evaluated and planned for separately, as well as from an
integrated perspective. The objective will be an automated, workflow oriented, cost-efficient
system and a plan that the County can use and afford.
4.4 System Coordination and Savings
After assessment of individual agencies, ILPP prepares an assessment and evaluation of system
coordination. Each agency's role is looked at through the perspective of interacting efficiently
with other system agencies.

4.S System Demand, High and Low
. ~~":--=c.-_-==-== :;==-=_,=" -.=..-_-=.::-=^'-.=~~-===:--
.-_. ---- -- ----------------- ..._~
System demand is determined based on ILPP's findings of system coordination. Areas where
system coordination could be maximized are reviewed and then population findings are used to
evaluate what more is needed from the system if it makes all the changes necessary to operate as
smoothly and quickly as possible. Identifying system demand asks how programs could be
utilized to serve an appropriate population better, what steps in the court process-mighC:1?e
streamlined and so forth. During the space use evaluation, this sub-task will test whether any
increase in system efficiency could solve some crowding problems.
4.6 Performance Goals and Costs
-- -------..----
At the end of this task, ILPP will identify areas that stand out as capable of improvement or
change that will positively impact jail and court population management and general system - - ,-- ,- --,---
coordination. ILPP will draft recommendations for each of these areas. Recommendations n - -- ---

5.1 Facility Inventory - Courts, Corrections and Office Space
This inventory will cover the current space and buildings devoted to processing juveniles, and to
providing programs and services.
5.2 Current Space Use Evaluation/Future Space Demand
Architects working with policy and program consultants can assess how well the mix of programs takes
advantage of or underutilizes jail and court space. This integrated team, which includes attorneys, jail
operations specialists and architects, will also evaluate how program changes might affect space and
evaluate potential liability issues.
A. Impact of Population Findings
The findings of the inmate population forecast, profile and tracking studies will have already been
compared with findings from the system assessment and evaluation. ILPP will have detennined the
following:
The type of detained juvenile population that the county will need housing for over the
next 20 years;
The effect of programs on reducing this future population;
The level of housing security that will be needed;
Changes that could be made in current classification practices to maximize existing use
of facilities.
B. Ability of Existing Facilities to Meet Projected Need
Following a complete inventory of existing facilities, ILPP can review the impact of current and future
populations' demand on housing. ILPP will determine to what degree the county's current facilities can
meet current and projected need. This will fonn the basis for the next step of the facility analysis
process: developing and reviewing expansion,r_e~odeling _~~ctc9_n~t~_cti9~ ()P!~~~~_,_ to ujJdate the

TASK 6:
Products
The county will receive draft population profile and tracking studies, a preliminary draft for
comments, and a final report. Refer to the project schedule for timing of reports.
Draft Justice System Assessment Report
System assessment, space use and program evaluation findings are presented in this report. This
report reflects on the effective integration of all the functions studied in the preliminary stages.
Areas of major need and initial recommendations are identified. The report, which will include
an executive summary of the findings and a plan for implementing will be submitted for county
review of recommendations and discussion of findings.
Inmate Population Report
ILPP will conduct a population studies, identifying system issues that affect how criminal justice
resources are used by asking the initial question: "How is the County jail being used and what
does such use tell us about the county's criminal justice system?" Once the population studies
are completed, the focus can then be on specific areas in the criminal justice system that can be
modified to lead to improved allocation of system resources with the objective of making the
justice system both efficient in terms of cost and effective in terms of accountability and public
safety.

Dear Mr. Anderson:
This is to inform you that because there has been no action to relocate St. Lucie
County inmates to our facility, our Undersheriff has given me the authorization to
open discussion with the other agencies that have expressed interest in our available
bed spaces.
In the event we receive inmates from your county prior to formalization of an
agreement with another ag~ncy, we will immediately end discussion with that agency.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (863) 402-7221.

Reply Requested: When Convenient
The last time the Parks Division used inmates was on October 11 & 12,2003. Prior to that date, we would use
inmates approximately once a month for various projects, including beach cleaning. We would use 10-12
inmates each time, accompanied by a deputy.
When the program was changed to have County supervisory personnel being responsible for the inmates and
the accompanying paperwork, rather than have a deputy being in charge, we discontinued using this service.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
I am writing this letter on behalf of Alan Kalmanoff and to recommend his
services to jurisdictions considering efforts to improve their criminal justice system.
Mr. Kalmanoffworked with the Hennepin County Criminal Justice System under
two separate contracts during 199& and 1999. Under both ofthese contracts, it was his
"task to bring together various agencies that make up the criminal justice system and to
recommend changes for improvement and better coordination. To make this task more
diffiC\llt, he was expected to work in a highly charged political atmosphere in which
various entities were much more accustomed to blaming others for system failures and
were highly resistant to any form of change.
Despite the difficulty of his task and the political atmosphere in which he worked,
Mr. Ka.lrnanofT succeeded by any measure. His success is in large part attributable to his
unwavering ability to speak frankly aIld candidly, no matter what the politica1
consequeoce, his ,knowl~dge and experience wilh respect to criminal justice systems, and
his ability to bring together professionals of diverse backgrounds to concentrate on
system improvement. As a resu1t. Mr. Ka1manoffand those he worked with were ab1e to
openly exchange information and to overcome the system's initial resistance to change.
Despite aU the barriers, 1v1r. Kalmanoffwas dear and accurate in his assessments. candid
in his criticisms, and insightful and creative in his recommendations. Mr, Kalmanoffs
ability to coordinate these various agencies and to direct and focus their efforts was
imp resslve.
As a result, 1 wOLlld highly recommend Mr. Ka1manoffand lLPP to any court
system or crimtnal justice system contemplating change. The product he provides is
honest feedback, in-depth analysis, and weH-considered proposals for change. ..-
An-additional service provided by Mr. KalmanClffwasas a "coach" ot..et1:iblet"----
after the initial recommendations were made. . This task was fraught with evengreater-=-
danger beçause it took the discussion beyond the academic into the opcrationat~The
barriers wer~ considt=rably greater aL l1ús sLage. Nevertheless, Mr. Ka1 man off was once-
- ---,--~- -_.~._----
-------- ----
'-'
...,¡
aga.in able to bring together the various groups at the operational level, get. them to
commit to a ftank and free discussjon and focus their efforts and discussions upon ways
to improve perfonnance. The energy with which he pursued this aspect was
considerable. As a result) sjgnificant procedural and substantive changes were
accompHshed.
On the basis of an of the abov~ I would highly recommend Ala-n Kalmanoff and
the ILPP to any agency considering construcùve change.
Sincerely,
~/-{t.t~

Dear Kal,
Please find attached articles from the Birmingham News, which speak to the
success of your efforts here in Jefferson County. As you will note, the bottom
line is we avoided building the new jail and $100,000,000 by improving the
efficiency of the criminal justice system. It was achieved through a lot of "little
ways" and the fact that we all worked together through the criminal justice
management committee. In spite of a crisis in our prison system and the backup
of several hundred state inmates in the jail, we have managed to keep the lid on
and renovate the facility. Also attached are several graphs which illustrate why.
Thanks for your help and ability to set us on the right path here in Jefferson
Count .

a.) County Sentenced Prisoner
b.) No Open/Outstanding Charges
c.) No Current or Past Violent Behavior
d.) No Known Medical Conditions
e.) Classified as Minimum Security
This list was compiled after an extensive review by members of the S1. Lucie County

J aï1 Overcrowding
On Monday June 21, 2004, Capt. Walsh and Major Tighe of the St. Lucie County Sheriffs
Office, Jodi Rene of the Public Defenders Office, ~d Jason Berger of the State Attorneys Office
were assigned to review and discuss the jail overcròwding issue in order to meet the requirements
of the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County. The issues discussed ere outlined as
follows: '.
\
1.) The status and charges ofal11,230 inmates were reviewed on June 21, 2004.
The findings and opinions of this meeting are as follows. A 'great IIlajority of all oft.b.e inmates
c~ently be'ip:g housed in the St. Lucie County Jail fell into the following categories:
a.) Inmates injail on high risk/serious ,Felony charges
b,) Inmates injail on violations of probation
c.) Inmates injail for failing to appear for court
d.) Inmates injail on multiple cases, multiple charges, andJorholds
Jodi Rene, Public Defender, is currently assigned to work in the county jail. Jodi reviev¡s jail
cases on a daily basis, and Jodi resolves cases with the State on a daily basis. Bottom J1ne is that
cases are being ¡-esolved daily, and new cases are cOIIlÌD.g in daily.
2.) Suggestion: Conduct a County Court Jail Docket every Friday:
The suggestion has been raised to conduct a County Court Jail Docket every Friday morning
(regardless of the alphabet of the defendant, as is done in Martin ·County). A final docket would
be set by the clerks office, and would be provided to the State Ari:omeys, Public Defenders and ,
the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office Jail.. no later than 3:00 p.m on eve¡)' Tuesday (cases
processed afterwards would be placed on the following Friday's Jail Docket.) The State would
then forward plea offers by Thursday morning, and the Public Defenders would present the plea
offers to their clients prior to the Friday Jail Docket.

pending felony cases at the same time with his/her other pending
cases (felony and misdemeanor.)
b.) An attempt should be made by all to resolve all of a defendants
pending misdemeanor cases at the same tþne with ros/her other pendin&
misdemeanor cases.
The suggestion is to have a standing Administrative Order allowing County Court Case-s
to be transferred to Circuit Court foJ.' purposes of resolving package plea agreements.
4.) Suggestion: Plea Agreements at First Appearance
CUITently, the St. Lucie County judiciary take turns handling first appearances on a weekly basis.
These first appearance hearings occur during various times, depending on which judge is
handiing them. The suggestion is to have a 1 :00 PM concrete time in which first appearances are
scheduled·and handled (other Circuits have a retired "first appearance" judge handle first
appearances in the afternoon.) Th~re are currently aD. average of 15 to 40 first appearances per
day. With a finite 1:00 PM schedule for fIrst appearances, both the State Attorney's Office and
the Public Defenders Office can schedule for and be "present to attempt to resolve misdemeanor
cases (not involving victims.) This suggestion would require the clerks office to fw:nish the SAD
with a copy of the arrest affidavit, NCIC/ FCTC and/or drivers license records, so that an
informed plea offer can be made (cun:ently the State Attorney's Office does not receive any
p~perwork atfirst appearances.) Otherwise, v..ithout any paperwork or information, the State
cannot be· prepared to make any plea offers. '
5.) Baker Acts/Mental Health Patients:
Currently there are several mentally ill indiviëiuals being booked into the jail because the mental
health receiving! treatment facilities are full, and/or will not admit them. Not only do many of
these indi,viduals not belong injail, but they are also taking up space in the jails medioal unit
(which more than doubles the daily costs.) The suggestion is to work with law enforcement and
the mental health community to improve the mental health process and eIlSUI'ethat individuals
who require mental health treatment are properly placed in a mental health facility.
6.) Notices to Appear/Arrests Made by Law Enforcement:
Cun-ently the jail has been doing Notices To Appear on those individuals eligible for release
upon an-~. The person is arrested, fingerprinted. booked, photographed, and then released On the
noti~e to appear. This process has helped the jail overcrowding situation tremendously, while
also ensuring that the defendant's arrest is properly documented.

7.) Suggestion: Upgrade the jails first appearance room to a courtroom setting
Currently, the jails fust appearance room has very'poor a~oustics. The suggestion is to upgrade
the jails first appearance room. to a courtroom setting with proper acoustics, carpeting, and
permanent seating. (See the ñrst appearance rooms .in Alachua, Broward, Dade and Orange
Counties.) ,
8.) Electronic Monitoring! GPS System 'With or without required day reporting:
This suggestion would allow qualified offenders to remain out of jail (pre-trial) on an electronic
monitor. The offender would be required to pay for the monitor at a CUITent estimate of 57.00 per
day. Offenders could also be required to check in daily with a reporting officer.
9.) Jails reporting requirements: ,.
The jail currently provides a monthly list to the Judges and to Court Administration of those
individuals held on misdemeanor for greater than 75 days,.and those individual,s held on Felocies
for greater then 150 days,'

charges for packing and preparing for travel, an interview with
an Enquirer reporter and attending a banquet - city officials
vowed not to pay him and are demancing U.S. District Court
judge Susan Dlotl replace him.
Dr. Kalmanoff did not respond to repeated calls this week or
to e-mails about the criticisms he has faced in other cities.
But this isn't the first time a government agency has refused
to pay his bill.
'He wasn't doing his job'
In a letter to commissioners, Dr. KaJmanoff said he wasn't
given the autonomy to do a proper job. Planning
commissioners said Dr. Kalmanoff quit because he severely
underbid the job.
"He wanted to make a whole damn bunch of money and he
didn't want to do anything for it," former planning
commissioner Ed Dees says. "I was on his side until I found
out he wasn't doing his job."
Although it happened six years ago, Mr. Dees is still rankled.
"It was either his way or the highway,· Mr. Dees says. 'ry ou
ought to get rid of him. If this guy does what he did with us,
you're not going to have a good experience."
When Dr. Kalmanoff resigned, he left the planning
commission with an $11,364 bill that included $2,200 in travel
expenses and $5,100 for conducting six interviews. The
commission voted unanimously not to pay.
Barbara Leiby, administrative seMœs manager for the
commission, says conflicts arose soon after Dr. Kalmanoff
was given three boxes of documents to review prior to the
audit.
ïhere were specific things we wanted him to do," she says.
"He found them so objectionable that he himself became
personally objectionable."
Ms. Leiby says Dr. Kalmanoffwas chosen in part because of
the high regard officials in Tampa and Hitlsborough County
had for his study of the police and sheñff's departments in
1994. But she says her agency found him to be intractable -
and she beHaves much of that was aimed at getting out of the
contract.

...."
"Our understanding of the contract was different than his
understanding," she says.
In California's San Joaquin County, officials also had a
dispute with Dr. Kalmanoff over money. This time, the issue
had nothing to do with bills, but with Dr. Kalmanoft"s alleged
claims that he saved taxpayers $10 mi16on.
Hired in 1995 to review the justice system In the central-
valley county, Dr. Kalmanoff promised to save the county
millions of dollars. But those savings never materialized, and
three years later officials said they would stop providing Dr.
Kalmanoff with a reference because he continued telling
clients that he had saved the county $10 million.
Deputy County Administrator Stephanie Larsen confirms the
dispute.
She says Dr. Kalmanoff made the point that the county not
only saved money but avoided costs as a result of his
$125,000 study.
"They did implement a number of his recommendations," Ms.
Larsen says, "He made about 90 recommendations."
Although former County Administrator David Baker told
reporters in 1998 that he would no longer provide Dr.
Kalmanoffwith a reference, Dr. Kalmanoff listed Mr. Baker on
his applicationJor Cincinnati monitor. There is no mention of
money.
"Evaluated the entire county criminal justice system resulting
in the development of an action plan to improve overall
system performance and efficiency," the application states.
An extensive oversight resume
Dr. Kalmanoff, who prefers to be caRed "Kal," heads the
nonprofit Institute for Law and Policy Planning, in Berkeley,
Calif. It was founded in 1973.
His background includes extensive work as a consultant to
police departments in San Jose, Salt Lake City, Orlando and
MinneapoUs. He also was appointed to make sure California
state prisons complied with a federal settlement that required
improvements in prison conditions,
In Cincinnati, his job is to enforce deadlines In two landmark
settlements that ended a federal civil rights investigation of
the police department and suspended a lawsuit by a group of
African-American activists who accused poßce of
discrimination.
The monitor will oversee the police department's overhaul of
training, use-of-farce poUcies and citizen complaint
procedures, and wiU review efforts by community groups to

improve community-police relations.
Judge Dlotl appointed Dr. Kalmanoff on Oct. 10 after
becoming convinced the parties involved in the settlements -
the city, the police union, the Department of Justice and the
Black United Front activist group - couki not agree on one of
11 candidates for the job.
The judge has declined to comment on Dr. Kalmanoff since
appointing him.
Dr. Kalmanoffs team of 19 legal and poRce experts will be
joined next year by retiring Ohio Supreme Court Justice
Andrew Douglas.
Under terms of the two agreements, the city is responsible for
paying the monitor costs. Dr. Kalmanoff previously has told
the Enquirer that the bill could be $7 million over the next five
years, though City Council says the tab must be capped at $1
million per year.
But last week, city officials threatened to pull out of the
agreements because of Dr. Kalmanoffs unwillingness to
answer questions about his job and because of the $55,000
bill.
It's for creating that kind of political firestorm that Dr.
Katmanoffis remembered in Akron's Summit County.
A controversial report
"I think a lot of people didn't want to hear the truth," says
Summit County Assistant Sheriff Larry Givens. "\ have a lot of
respect for his willingness to say what is on his mind."
Mr. Givens was a Summit County Council member when Dr.
Kalmanoff was hired in 2000 to review the county's justice
system.
"It was a sound report and I think people got their money's
worth," he says. "I think a lot of people may have perceived it
as something to be politicized, when it shouldn't have been,"
But Jim Lawrence, founder and president of Oriana House,
which provides alternative sentencing for the county, says Dr.
Kalmanoff used the report tike a poUtical mallet.
"Dr. Kalmanoff has one way to do things. And if you don't do
it, then he will find ways to paint you in a negative light," Mr.
Lawrence says. "I saw (the report) as a veiled threat. No
question about it."
The $195,000 report said county officials had allowed Oriana
House to become a monopoly.

....,¡
But Mr. Lawrence says the report was full of half-truths and
rumors. He accuses Dr. Kalmanoff of using the report to
demand a letter of recommendation. He says Dr. Kalmanoff
told him if he refused, the report would blast Oriana House.
"I have demanded a retraction from Dr. Kalmanoff for what I
believe are factual errors," Mr. Lawrence says.
Linda Parnnell, one-time general counsel to former Summit
County Executive Tim Davis, says the report was out of line.
"Kalmanoff failed to deliver what he was hired to do," she
says. "I think Oriana House became a political casualty."
She says Dr. Kalmanoff - who once asked for a police escort
when he came to speak to the county council-overstepped
his bounds and helped fan the flames of a political fire in
order to avoid delivering a complete report.
She calls it a smoke screen.
"The report was a whole spiral of what could happen. A lot of
it was speculative," MS.PamneU says.
Mr. Givens disagrees. He says the report pointed to needed
changes.-
"Overall, the report stated, let's get on with it," he said. "It said
we can do a better job."
Kal won't back down
When you hire Dr. Kalmanoff, you have to be prepared for
the message, says Robert Houtman, former county chair in
Kalamazoo, Mich. .
"If he didn't make people upset, he wouldn't be doinQ his job,"
he says.
In 2000, Kalamazoo County hired Dr. Kalmanofffor an
estimated $300,000 report on improving the justice system.
But this year, when officials were tl)'ing to use his 300-page
report to justify a bond issue for a new jail, Dr. Kalmanoff
came back at the request of an anti-tax group.
He criticized the county's justice system and chastised
officials for making no effort to implement his plan.
'They tried to twist (the report) around and use it as an
advocate," says Mr. Houtman, who now lives in Florida.
"Kalmanoff caught them with their pants down."
.l-
But other Kalamazoo officials say Dr. Kalmanoff went too far
and lost his objectivity. They say he attacked them personally

when they disagreed with him.
Mr. Hautman says Kalamazoo needed Dr. Kalmanoff.
"He isn't afraid to take anybody on."

Team up to fire the monitor
Anyone who reads Superman comics knows that
being Invaded by Mel'$ can be B good thing if it
gets all the Earthlings to quit killing each other
and joIn forces to flght thß alien invader.
So thank you, Alan Kalmanoff, for being
Peter Cincinnatí's favorite Martian. Mr. I<almi!lnoff
Bronson comes from BerKeley, Calif. - which is as far from
Cincinna!i as Mars. His bill proves he'$ living en
another planet. And after only a month as the "monitor" of our
. police and race problems. he has everyone in CincirInati $0
mad. we might join forces - t,:) dump the monitor.
Mad as heck
City Council was insulted by the way he
brushed off questions. Then he billed for
$55,000, including charges for packing his
suitcase, answering e-mail and going to
dinners.
"The days that we will be pushed over are Oller, n said John
Crenley.
Pat OeWine and ott'!ers threatened to blow up the "historic"
collaborative agreement if Mr. Kalmanoff is not dLrnped. They
all voted to fire him.
One problem. They signed away the! power to federal judge
Susan Dlott. who picked h'm. And Mr. DeWine discovered on

Another problem: The city is also at the mercy of the other
collaborators - the F~ternal Order of Police. the Slack United
Front, the ACLU and the Department of Justice.
'" was surprised she picked ihis guy, ø said Roger Webster of
the FOP. "He was not on our list. The way she explained it, hs
wa$n't at the top of anyone's list, but she felt he wa$ the best
for the job."
Ken Lawson, spokesman for BUF, said Mr. Kalmanoff was not
on their list, either.
"Some of the things on that bill were just stupid." he said. "He
wasn't our choice, but you have a process to follow."
Nobody called
There·s the chapped spot. Mr. Webster
and Mr. Lawson were never consulted
about firing the monitor. "It Irritates me
that the city has not even contacted us,"
said Mr. Webster.
Mr. LaWson said. 'What I was angry at is that the city doesn~
understand they don't run it. If eV$rybody called and telked
with each other and we all say 'Hey, this bill is crazy,' that's
different
"' can guarantee you they can't tell this guy to stop working."
But V\--aJt - this i$ good news. Who could have gUe$sed that Mr.
Kalmancff could unite council - and even get the FOP end 1he
aUF to sSJ'69.
Judge Dlott i$n't talking. But if she sticks the city with Mr.
Kalmanoff, the "historic" deal is probably doomed.
The solution is comic-book obvious: City otrlcials should meet
with the colleborators and ask tnem - politely - to lOin forces
and tell the judge she reached too far into the apple barrel and
pulled out a lemon.
Oops: lest Friday I reported that Detroit had 42 homicides last
year. That is the adjusted rate of homicides per 100,000
residents. The actual number i$ close to 400, according to
Detroit media.

FY 2001 Local Law Enforcement
Block Grants Program
F or fiscal year (FY) 200 I, Congress has appropriated
$523 million for the continuation of the Local Law En-
forcement Block Grants (LLEBG) Program, to be ad-
ministered by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA),
U.S. Department of Justice. The purpose of the LLEBG
Program is to provide funds to units oflocal govern-
ment to underwrite projects to reduce crime and im-
prove public safety.
Program Eligibility and Distribution
of Funds
To be considered eligible for the LLEBG Program, a
jurisdiction must be a general purpose unit of local gov-
ernment.1 The unit of local government must report, via
its law enforcement agencies, to the Uniform Crime Re-
ports (UCR) Program of the Federal Bureau ofInvesti-
gation (FBI).
The LLEBG Program is a formula program based on a
jurisdiction's number ofUCR Part I violent crimes re-
ported to the FBI. The formula is computed in two stages.
In the first stage, state allocations are proportionate to each
state's average annual amount ofUCR Part I violent
crimes compared with that for an other states for the 3
most recent calendar years of data from the FBI. Each
state, however, must receive a minÍmmn award of 0.25 per-
cent of the total amount available for formula distribution
under the LLEBG Program. In the second stage, local
awards are proportionate to each local jurisdiction's aver-
age annual amount ofUCR Part I violent crimes compared
with that for an other local jurisdictions in the state for the
3 most recent calendar years. Jurisdictions reporting crime
rates above the formula-based threshold of $10,000 are
eligible for direct awards.
The difference remaining between the state allocation
and the local allocation total is awarded to a state ad-
ministrative agency (SAA) designated by the Governor.
The SAA has the option of distributing award funds to
state police departments or units oflocal government
not meeting the formula-based threshold of $10,000.
Additional information about this portion of the funds
is available from each state's respective SAA.
Program Purpose Areas
LLEBG Program funds must be spent in accordance
with one or more of the following seven purpose areas:
o Supporting law enforcement:
· Hiring, training, and employing on a continuing
basis new, additional law enforcement officers
and necessary support personne1.
· Paying overtime to currently employed law
enforcement officers and necessary support
personnel to increase the number of hours
worked by such personne1.
· Procuring equipment, technology, and other
material directly related to basic law enforce-
ment functions.
o Enhancing security measures in and around schools
and in and around other facilities or locations that
the unit of local government considers special risks
for incidents of crime.
o Establishing or supporting drug courts.
o Enhancing the adjudication of cases involving
violent offenders, including cases involving violent
juvenile offenders.
'-
....I
o Establishing a multijurisdictional task force,
particularly in rural areas, composed ofIaw en-
forcement officials representing units of local
government. This task force must work with federal
law enforcement officials to prevent and control
cnme.
o Establishing crime prevention programs involving
cooperation between community residents and law
enforcement personnel to control, detect, or investi-
gate crime or to prosecute criminals.
o Defraying the cost of indemnification insurance for
law enforcement officers.
Program Requirements
The following requirements must be met prior to the
obligation of LLEBG Program funds and prior to the
Request for Drawdown (RFD) of funds. The RFD must
be completed within 90 days of the posting of awards,
or the funds will be redistributed in the following
fiscal year.
o Advisory Board
Each jurisdiction must establish or designate an
advisory board to review the application. The
board must be designated to make nonbinding
recommendations for the proposed use of funds
received under this program. The advisory board
must include a member from each of the following
local organizations: law enforcement agency,
prosecutor's office, court system, school system,
and a nonprofit group (e.g., educational, religious,
community) active in crime prevention or drug-use
prevention or treatment.
o Public Hearing
Each jurisdiction must hold at least one public
hearing regarding the proposed use of funds prior to
the obligation of funds. Jurisdictions should encour-
age public attendance and participation.
o Matching Funds
In each jurisdiction, LLEBG funds may not exceed
90 percent of total program costs. Program partici-
pation requires a cash match that will not be
waived. All recipients must maintain records clearly
showing the source, amount, and timing of all
matching contributions.
o Trust Fund
Each jurisdiction must establish a trust fund that
may accrue interest in which to deposit program
funds,
o Expenditure Period
All federal funds, including interest, revenue, divi-
dend, and match, must be spent within the 2-year
expenditure period. Unspent fimds must be returned to
BJA within 90 days of program termination.
o Public Safety Officers' Health Benefits Provision
Section 6 I 5 of the FY 1998 Appropriations Act
requires a unit ofIocal government to afford a
public safety officer who retires or is separated
from duty due to a personal line-o¡'duty injury,
suffered as a direct and proximate result of re-
sponding to a hot pursuit or an emergency situa-
tion, health benefits at the time of separation that
are the same as or better than those he or she
received while on duty.
To be eligible to receive the entire amount of award
under the LLEBG Program, a unit ofIocal govern-
ment must be in compliance with this provision, If
not in compliance, the unit will forfeit 10 percent of
the eligible amount. Further infonnation about this
provision is provided on the LLEBG Internet-based
application system, which may be accessed at
www.ojp.usdoj.gov/BJAlhtml/Ilebgl.htm.
Prohibition on Use of Funds
LLEBG funds are not to be used to purchase, lease,
rent, or acquire tanks or annored vehicles, fixed-wing
aircraft, limousines, real estate, yachts, or any vehicle
not used primarily for law enforcement. Nor are funds
to be used to retain individual consultants or construct
new facilities, Likewise, federal funds are not to be
used to supplant state or local funds. Rather, they are to
be used to increase the amount of funds that would oth-
erwise be available from state and local sources.
Resolution of Funding Disparities
The LLEBG Program provides resolution to potential
funding disparities within jurisdictions. A state attorney
general may certifY that a disparity exists between or
among jurisdictions. Those jurisdictions are then re-
quired by statute to develop and submit joint applica-
tions. BJNs role is limited to accepting state attorney
general certifications and reviewing jointly submitted
applications. If the state attorney general chooses not to
become involved in the disparate allocation certification
process, there is no mechanism for BJA to intervene.
All certifications must be submitted within given dead-
lines, prior to BJA determination of annual award
amounts.

deposit LLEBG Program funding, The trust fund mayor may not be an interest bearing
account. Regardless of the type of account selected, the trust fund must protect the principal.
