Lino Lakes Police Department
Problem Identification:
On our proposed 2001 grant we have three additional agencies (Anoka, Coon Rapids, & Ramsey) that have
decided to join our group. With the addition of these three agencies there will be 16 cities served with a population
of 206,512 residents. There are several hundred miles of roadway within our boundaries. Included in these
roadways are two major freeways, I35W- I35E, and the new Hwy. 10 from Coon Rapids west to the Anoka County
border. Also included are several collateral, yet significant roadways that include, Hwy. 65, 242, 610, and 47.
There are several hundred miles of two lane, two way rural roads where most fatal crashes occur. Many of these
two lane roads are 55 MPH zones. With this many miles of two-lane roadways, coupled with the major arteries,
Anoka County continues to rank as one of the worst counties in the number of deaths and severe injury crashes.
During the time period of 1996-1998, Anoka County ranked 85th out of 87 counties for the most number of
fatalities and severe injury crashes. In the year 2000 Anoka County had 23 fatalities, the 4th worst county in the
state. There were 1,745 personal injury crashes which resulted in 2,612 people being injured, the 3rd.worst in the
state in 2000. The City of Coon Rapids experienced five fatal crashes in 2000 and 462 personal injury crashes with
685 people being injured. Lino Lakes had three fatalities and 58 personal injury crashes that resulted in 80 people
being injured. Ramsey City experienced three fatal crashes and 78 personal injuries crashes that injured 124
people. The City of Anoka experienced 127 personal injury crashes that resulted in 188 people injured. Spring
Lake Park had 54 personal injury crashes with 75 people injured. The Centennial Lakes Police Department
reported 21 personal injury crashes in which 34 people were injured. The City of St. Francis had 19 personal injury
crashes with 30 injured people.
Between these eight agencies 1,684 impaired drivers were removed from our streets in 2000. 990 of these
rests came from the original five agencies in our group. This is about a 15% increase from the year before. With
tie addition of the three new agencies, we expect even better results in removing impaired drivers from the roads.
Consider the number of driving complaints (2,179) received in 2000 by the eight agencies. With addition of
three new agencies, this number probably will rise as we strive to get our message out about the Safe & Sober
program in the new areas. The past has shown that this number should eventually decrease. Some of these 2,179
complaints come as a result of road construction and design. For example, I35W northbound is narrowed to a one -
lane freeway prior to merging with I35E. Hwy. 10 reduces from four lanes to two lanes in less than one mile. This
results in major traffic congestion. These types of situations result in driving complaints and road rage incidents.
There is also an increase in the number of vehicles on our roadways and the number of miles traveled in Anoka
County. There was a decrease in road and driving complaints in 2000 among the original five agencies from 1218
to 1056, which is about a 14% decrease in these types of complaints.
2001 Grant:
In August 2000 we were awarded a Safe & Sober grant. The group continues to meet on a regular basis to
discuss and plan our projects. This usually results in projects well thought out that will help reduce the number of
accidents and increase the number of seat belt users. During our meetings we plan and strategize our media
opportunities, educational applications and our enforcement activities.
We believe part of the success of this group is due to the cooperative attitude taken by all involved. No one
agency has been slighted within this group. We work as one unit during our Safe & Sober campaign. This results in
7eryone involved knowing what is expected and how to achieve those results.
During our current grant we have planned several joint projects to focus on an area that presents particular
problems. These joint projects usually consisted of 5-10 squads saturating an area coupled with a high media blitz
informing citizens of our intent.

2001 Grant continued:
We then followed up this activity with another media event telling what our results were. Some of these
joint projects were very successful with excellent arrests such as taking several grams of cocaine and meth as well
as guns off our streets. We have also experienced projects that were not as successful. We did find that Wave V
seems to have been less successful than we hoped for. Part of this may be the result of the number of people who
left town for the week and/or weekend. While we are still pulling numbers together from this wave, they are down
from what our group had strived to achieve.
One way this group will attempt to resolve problems with enforcement efforts will be through better
planning. There will be more aggressive planning on the dates and times we schedule our events. Careful
consideration will be given to those times when productivity will be high. IE: Early morning shifts, afternoon rush
hours, at the beginning and at the end of a holiday season.
Our group has planned several local projects within our jurisdictions that are coordinated with each other.
In other words, same dates, same times, resulting in several additional squads enforcing traffic laws in Anoka
County at the same time. This will continue.
During Wave V KARE 11 did a short media story on this effort. While it was a short story, we believe a
strong message was sent to the motoring public. We have also experienced success with the local media within our
communities. Reporters have ridden with officers during projects. This results in excellent media stories relayed to
the motoring public within our communities. This open invitation to ride along will continue.

During several school carnivals within our communities we have assigned an officer to be present and
speak about the Safe & Sober program. There were officers present at the Anoka County Fair last year and flyers
were distributed to explain the program. And a business card is handed to each motorist stopped by the officers
working the projects. These cards briefly explain the project and why they are being stopped. It is our intent to
keep these cards in the event we receive another grant.
In November of 2000 our group hosted a meeting between ourselves and all the city attorneys representing
our agencies. A total of 10 attorneys and six officers were present along with Bob O'Brien. The focus of this
meeting was to explain the Safe & Sober program to the attorneys and why it exists. Our group wanted to make
sure the attorneys knew the importance of this program and the important role they played. No one wins if traffic
violations are pled away or dismissed. Every attorney made positive comments about the meeting and all expressed
they would be very aggressive when prosecuting traffic violations in the future. Our group continues to explore
these types of pro -active projects and there is currently discussion on holding a similar meeting for the judges
within Anoka County.

Public Education/Media Relations continued:
Each of these listed events is some of the type of tools used to get the message out to the motoring public.
We have found the local media is very willing to work with the departments and always put a positive spin on their
articles of the Safe & Sober program. We have had good success with the local cable TV stations that are very
willing to assist in running presentations on the local channels. This coverage will expand with the addition of the
three agencies.
Articles will go out to every high school in our communities explaining what and why we are involved in
this traffic safety program. Special emphasis will be placed in the school newspapers during the Youth/Belt wave.
High school students will be invited to ride along with officers working Safe & Sober projects in an attempt to get
students to understand the importance of buckling up and staying alcohol/drug free.
The current Safe & Sober group has received strong support from our city councils and county board in this
effort to save lives. Councils have publicly stated the importance of traffic safety within their communities. There
will also be an effort placed on asking local clubs (VFW's, Legions, etc.) to assist with the placement of Safe &
Sober materials within their establishments and donations to help defer the costs of the Safe & Sober business
cards. Pens, key chains, and magnets along with Safe & Sober material will be handed out at the Anoka County
Fair and school carnivals in an effort to promote Safe & Sober driving.
Projects:
Theeight agencies will meet prior to and after each wave. We will discuss the most productive times to
;hedule shifts that will produce the highest results for that particular wave. During the Impaired Driving wave
'-mese shifts will be centered around those times when the impaired driver is likely to be on the road. (IE: 22:00 —
03:00) Seat Belt waves will focus on day light hours and those times when the highest number of motorist are
driving on our streets. This will allow officers to visually see which drivers and passengers are complying with our
seat belt laws. Officers will be encourage to stop motorist for any moving violation when the motorist is not
wearing their seat belts.
Shifts will be four hours long for most if not all the hours worked. It is believed that four-hour shifts
produce the best results. Officers seem to stay better focused on the effort they are trying to accomplish when
assigned to the four-hour shift. There will be a minimum of eight joint projects in the upcoming grant with the
media encouraged to ride along with officers. And of course projects will be assigned to those dates set forth by the
state on when we will work.
The highest producers of our group will be awarded an incentive with the Safe & Sober logo. Some of these
incentives may include hats, pens, coffee mugs, etc. The project director will write letters to the highest producers
from each agency commending them on their performance. Officers who sign up to work the Safe & Sober projects
will be encouraged to produce by the manager from each agency.
Attachment 2
All agencies which have received funding for a Safe & Sober overtime patrol grant in the past must complete this report. This does not include agencies
which used a Challenge award for overtime patrols.
REPORT ON SEAT BELT AND CHILD SEAT CITATIONS AND WARNINGS
DURING PREVIOUS SAFE & SOBER YEARS
There is no easier, cheaper, more effective way to save lives and prevent injuries than to increase seat belt and child seat use
rates. When evaluating applications for Safe & Sober 2002, the OTS will again consider your performance in comparison to
other grantees for the rate of vehicle stops per hour, the rate of stops that resulted in a citation or written warning for violation of
the seat belt or child seat laws, and the rate of stops resulting in a citation rather than a warning. This report is meant to help you
to make your case that your agency does need a Safe & Sober grant and is committed to enforcing the passenger protection laws.
Please note: "Everyone is buckled up" only tells us your agency doesn't need a Safe & Sober grant as badly as all those other
places where everyone isn't buckled up. Each year OTS is able to approve about half of the requests for funding — it is our
responsibility to do everything we can to ensure our grants go to those communities who need them most and can use them best.
For each past year in which you received an overtime patrol Safe & Sober grant, fill in the percentage of contacts which resulted
in an action for failing to comply with the seat belt or child seat law. The results by lead agency for 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999,
2000, and 2001 are attached. For more current 2001 data, call your OTS coordinator (the attached data for 2001 does not
include reports on the Youth wave or later). In evaluating how well your agency has done, we will consider significant
improvement and the answers to the questions as well as absolute percentages.

If the report on the opposite side indicates you did not meet the average seat belt or child seat rates of other agencies, tell us what
you will do differently in 2002:
Lino Lakes Police Department
So far our group has fallen short on the number of seat belt citations issued. At the time of this report we
were at 17.8%, which is lower than the average of 22.8%. While this number does fall short it does not
include the last wave, which was seat belts. It is our belief that when the final count for Wave V comes in,
we will still be short, but there should be an increase from 17.8%.
Our group has discussed this and somefeelit was due to the number of people who left town during this
wave. The initial contacts and citations were high and then tapered off after the traffic reduced. We have
discussed ways to be more productive and one of those is to schedule more squads during the beginning
and the end of a holiday weekend or week.
As project director I will continue writing letters to top producers from each agency after each wave. We
will also continue to reward good work with an incentive, such as pens, coffee mugs, etc.
We will also place a special emphasis on "buckling up" during the Anoka County Fair. This is a time
when several thousand people will attend the county fair and we need to capitalize on this event within
our community.
Our group will try harder. We can do better and we will. Department managers involved in the grant will
stress the importance of seat belt enforcement to their officers.
Is there anything else would you like the OTS to consider regarding your agencies ability to increase seat belt use and
enforcement in your area?
