MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution approving the purchase of the Axon
Unlimited Transcription tool from Axon Enterprise of Scottsdale,
AZ.
BACKGROUND
Axon Unlimited Transcription is a tool designed to streamline the review and transcription of
audio and video evidence for our agency. It offers quick scanning by keyword to find important
moments in time -synced auto -transcripts, allowing users to click on a word and jump directly to
that point in the video or audio. This feature saves significant time during evidence review. The
platform enables the creation of court -ready transcripts in minutes, with embedded timestamps
indicating when and by whom critical details were said, ensuring accuracy and clarity. It also
allows for secure sharing of transcripts with justice system collaborators. By auto -transcribing
various types of evidence, including body -worn video, in -car video, and audio recordings, the
tool frees up resources for other critical tasks and supports the simultaneous transcription of
multiple files.
The total cost for the initial seventeen months will be $74,506.41. Following this period, the cost
will be included in the main Axon contract for annual maintenance. This purchase has been
budgeted for the fiscal year 2024. Pricing was obtained through Buy Board. Buy Board is a
buying contract that allows government entities to make purchases that have already been
contracted under the procurement statutes of the State of Texas.
FUNDING SOURCE

contribute $86,200 as a cash match in the form of travel, supplies and direct operating expenses,
while other participating agencies will provide an additional $60,000, for a total cash match of
$146,200. The upcoming grant cycle will begin on September 1, 2024, and will end on August
31, 2025. As per MVCPA requirements, a council resolution is required to designate the

at rate of 1.45% (except a Sgt. who was hired before April 1, 1986). TMRS Retirement withholdings including agency contributions:

Funded Fringe total: $108,000. In -Kind Match Fringe total: $108,000.
C. Overtime
Narrative: In most circumstances, task force personnel will flex hours to accommodate events or unexpected incidents that require an
extended period of work beyond what is scheduled. There are however occasions where overtime will be required and unavoidable
due to the complexity of an incident; the hour it originated; the inability to flex the time due to personnel already having met the 40-hour
limitation per week; or, stipulations of a Collective Bargaining labor Contract. There will be occasions where motor vehicle crimes
investigations, surveillance and direct grant related activities will require overtime for task farce personnel. Salaries have risen and
given the average of $9,000.00 per year in overtime, it could be reasonably forecast that there would be approximately the same
amount of overtime expended in the upcoming grant year. That would equate to approximately $2,260 ($2,250 x 3 = $6,750) per
investigator per year.

MVCPATaskforce Grant App licatio n
Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force, established in 1993, operates across Jefferson, Orange, Hardin, and Jasper Counties,
combining the efforts of the Beaumont Police Department, Port Arthur Police Department, and Jefferson County Sheriff's Office to
combat motor vehicle crimes. The mission focuses on reducing vehicle theft and burglary, recovering stolen property, and enhancing
community safety. Contra] to the success of the task force, is the strategy of intelligence gathering and analysis, developing suspects
through meticulous case intake processes, and using information from law enforcement agencies and the community. By analyzing
crime patterns and trends, the Task Force acts decisively using surveillance, covert operations, and collaborations with other law
enforcement entities. The task force integrates internet sources, participates in the Crime Stoppers program, and uses media to
extend investigative reach. Preventive measures include regular inspections of salvage and repair businesses and conducting
VTR68(A) inspections to detect stolen vehicles, disrupting potential criminal activities. Community engagement and education are key
components, with the Task Force participating in community events and offering presentations to educate citizens on vehicle crime
prevention. Billboard campaigns disseminate practical tips to reduce theft and burglary. Close collaboration with the judicial system
ensuring cases are thoroughly investigated and presented to the DA's Office, for the highest possible punishment of offenders. The
sustained efforts of the Task Force significantly impact the communities by reducing motor vehicle crimes, ensuring thorough
investigations, and educating the public. The dedication of task force personnel fosters a safer environment for residents and
businesses. The Task Force's comprehensive approach and collaborative spirit are vital in maintaining and improving the quality of life
in Southeast Texas. The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force is a great example of effective law enforcement collaboration,
demonstrating how a multi -faceted strategy can reduce crime and enhance community safety.
1.2 Describe the taskforce governing, organization and command structures. Include a description of the nature of support and
agreements that will be in place if the grant is awarded. Provide any details unique to the taskforce organization or geographical
target area. Describe whether any part of this grant will be directed to serve a specific target population (or subset of the community)?
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force is a part of the Beaumont Police Department Criminal Investigations Division. There is a
Captain of the Division, with Lieutenants over the units in the Division. The Auto Theft Task Force has a Lieutenant over the unit, that
is also designated as the Commander I Program Director, The Lieutenant is responsible for oversight of all aspects of the Auto Theft
Task Force and the grant. The Task Force Commander has a Sergeant that is designated as the Supervisor/ Program Manager. The
Sergeant is responsible for case assignments, monthly reports, quarterly progress reports and all other daily I weekly I monthly
supervisory duties pertaining to case investigations, proposed activities or operations which further the grant goals and ensure that
they are met. Investigators are responsible for case investigations and all other duties that are assigned. There are four investigators
from the Beaumont Police Department, one investigator from the Jefferson County Sheriffs Department and one investigator from the
Port Arthur Police Department. There will be Interlocal agreements in place with each of the four counties included in the coverage
area, as well as the participating sub -grantee Departments; the Jefferson County Sheriffs Department and the Port Arthur Police
Department. There will also be letters of agreement with the District Attorneys of each county in the coverage area. The four -county
project area is comprised of numerous communities and according to the most recent US Census estimate (2020) the counties have
a combined population of approximately 430,000, with nearly 60% residing in Jefferson County. The four -county project area is in the
southeast corner of the state, with a combined area of 2,361 square miles. There are 20 local law enforcement agencies in the
coverage area. The major roadways which bisect the coverage area are as follows: interstate 10 goes directly through Orange and
Jefferson Counties and is the major southern coast to coast interstate highway in the United States. Highway 90 is also a major
highway which cuts through the center of the City of Beaumont east to west. State Highway 105 also comes through Beaumont from
the northwest. Highway 69/96/287 is the major north south highway coming directly through Jasper and Hardin counties into
Beaumont and Port Arthur. There is also Highway 73, which is south of Beaumont closer to the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and runs
from Winnie, TX to near Orange, TX. The Port of Beaumont, the Port of Port Arthur and the Port of Orange are also in the coverage
area. The Coverage area is bounded by the Gulf of Mexico to the south and the Sabine River to the East, abutting the Louisiana state
line in Orange County. The Neches River is the waterway that is the eastern boundary of the City of Beaumont and empties into the
Sabine River near the Gulf of Mexico. Beaumont is the largest city along Interstate 10 between Houston and Baton Rouge, LA. The
Beaumont area is also the 6th most densely populated area in the State. The City of Beaumont has a population of 115,013. The
estimated daytime population, according to TxDoT (Beaumont Commuting Area Reports Portal), swells to 135,806. That influx of
20,792 also brings more vehicles into the city increasing the number of vehicles that become targets of Motor Vehicle Crimes. There
are over 100,000 vehicles per day that pass through the city limits of Beaumont on Interstate 10. (TXDOT TTP Web Viewer AADT)
TXDOT reported there were over 390,000 vehicles registered within our four -county coverage area in 2023. More than half of these
vehicles are in Jefferson County, which is primarily urban and suburban areas. The four -county project area had 856 vehicle thefts
reported for 2022 and 946 vehicle thefts reported for 2023, (Numbers obtained from DPS Index Crimes On -Line) These numbers
show an increase of 9.5% from 2022 to 2023. Much of this increase can be attributed to Kia I Hyundai motor vehicle thefts. There
were 1,411 auto burglaries reported in the project area in 2022 and 1,382 auto burglaries reported in 2023. These numbers (obtained
from all agencies in the coverage area) show a 2% decrease for 2022 through 2023, The four -county project area had 531 vehicles
that suffered Catalytic Converter thefts for 2022 and 119 Catalytic Converter thefts reported for 2023. (Numbers obtained from project
area agencies that had accurate records of Catalytic Converter thefts) These numbers totaled for the two year period are 1,802 Motor
Vehicle Thefts; 2,793 Auto Burglaries and 650 Catalytic Converter Thefts. According to Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
records, there are 11 licensed Metal Recycling Entities in the four -county coverage area. There are 12 Used Auto Parts Recyclers in
the four -county coverage area. The entire population of the coverage area will be served by the task force. The amount of service will
be dictated by the need for assistance from agencies In the coverage area, investigations that lead to different specific areas and on
the rise or fall in the frequency of Motor Vehicle Thefts and Theft from a Motor Vehicle, including Auto Burglaries, in that specific
community or geographic area.

MVCPATaskforce Grant Application
2.1 Provide an assessment of the burglary from a motor vehicle (including theft of parts) problem in the coverage area of this application.
Include loss data consistent with the reported incident numbers above.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force Coverage area reported for 2022-2023 that the four -county project area had 1,411 auto
burglaries reported in the project area in 2022 and 1,382 auto burglaries reported in 2023. These numbers (obtained from all agencies
in the coverage area) show a 2% decrease for 2022 through 2023. The four -county project area had 531 vehicles that suffered
Catalytic Converter thefts for 2022 and 119 Catalytic Converter thefts reported for 2023. (Numbers obtained from project area
agencies that had accurate records of Catalytic Converter thefts) These numbers totaled for the two year period (2022-2023) are
2,793 Auto Burglaries and 650 Catalytic Converter Thefts, for a total of 3,443 Burglary of a Motor Vehicle and Theft from a Motor
Vehicle cases. Though the overall rate of Burglary of a motor Vehicle shows to have declined by about 2%, this slight downturn does
not illustrate, that Burglary of a Motor Vehicle cases have become more targeted. The actors in a large portion of these crimes are
targeting firearms. Another large portion was Kle/Hyundai attempted thefts. There were 170 firearms stolen in 2022, with 92% taken
from unlocked vehicles; and 152 stolen in 2023, with 84% taken from unlocked vehicles. There were 101 attempted Kia 1 Hyundai
thefts in 2023, this accounts for 11 % of all BMV's reported in 2023. The auto burglary trends that have been noted in the past still
remain the same. Unlocked car doors are the vast majority of the auto burglaries reported and firearms, cash, electronics, purses,
backpacks and credit cards are all higher priority targets. Between January 1st and April 251h, just in the City of Beaumont, there were
271 auto burglaries reported and 58 firearms were reported stolen from those incidents. That means more than twenty percent of the
auto burglaries reported thus far in 2023, involved the theft of a firearm. Only 10 of the auto burglaries reported, where firearms were
taken, involved forced entry. That means more than 85% of all firearms taken in auto burglaries were taken from unlocked vehicles.
Predatory theft from vehicles has declined in the project area. These actors are generally from the Houston area and when Houston
and Harris County see increases so does the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force. Offenders targeting victims using outdoor
exercise venues, by sitting in the parking lots of these facilities such as parks, Hike and Bike trails and gym parking lots, have
dropped off somewhat. These incidents targeted mainly, purses, wallets, and cash, as well as other valuables. The offenders use the
same Predatory method, watching potential victims park, then waiting to see if a wallet or purse was hidden while they observed. The
offenders would then either walk over and look in the vehicle, or drive over and park next to the victims vehicle using the vehicles as
concealment. Once the vehicle was entered, generally by breaking the glass, the actors would take the property and leave the area. If
there were credit cards, the actors would go to nearby stores and make fraudulent purchases. Many times the victim would receive
notifications on their phones of the transactions, while they were still exercising. Task Force investigators collaborate with the
Beaumont Police Department Fraud Unit in these investigations in an effort to identify these actors. This type of predatory theft has
continued, though it has dropped off substantially during the past year.
Juveniles continue to be a pervasive problem, working in groups and "Car -Hopping" through parking lots and neighborhoods. These
juvenile offenders are responsible for a large amount of the firearm thefts and as stated in the past, difficult to identify and very rarely
serve any time in a correctional facility. These stolen firearms have been and are being used in drive -by shootings and other juvenile
gang violence.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force works diligently with the Juvenile Division of the Beaumont Police Department and has
had good success by collaborating on the juvenile crime issue, pertaining to the motor vehicle crime problem in the area. This,
however, is an on -going issue which is perpetuated every year with new offenders and repeat offenders as they become adults.
2.2 Provide an assessment of the motor vehicle theft problem in the coverage area of this application. Include loss data consistent with
the reported incident numbers above.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force coverage area did experience an increase in Motor Vehicle Theft between 2022 and
2023, There were 856 Motor Vehicle Thefts reported in the coverage area in 2022 and 946 were reported in 2023, This is
approximately a 9.5% increase in reported Motor Vehicle Thefts. The primary cause of the increase was due to the large increase in
Kia J Hyundai Motor Vehicle Thefts. There were 131 Kia 1 Hyundai auto thefts reported in Beaumont for 2023. This comprises 32% of
all UUMV's reported. These thefts were predominantly involving juvenile groups / gangs that targeted Kla 1 Hyundai vehicles. These
offenders were using the vehicles for other crimes as well. Many of these juvenile actors were identified and apprehended with the
assistance of the task force and collaboration with the other agencies in the coverage area. This issue has been addressed by Task
Force personnel to maintaining a constant intelligence exchange with the juvenile division of the Beaumont Police Department, in
order to target and identify these juvenile actors. The majority of the other thefts reported are with keys, or proximity key FOB's left in
the vehicle. The Task force is using FLOCK LPRICameras along with other LPR's; such as the Axon Camera System that the
Beaumont Police Department now has in all patrol Units. These cameras are also LPR's and are monitored together in the Beaumont
Police Departments Real Time Crime Center (RTCC). The RTCC also provides analysis of data and data mining to the task force
relating to auto theft and burglary, as well as, theft from vehicles. The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task force has worked extensively
with the Jefferson County DA's Office as well as the other Counties DA's Offices and has made headway in getting cases that have
been presented, accepted by the DA's in the coverage area. The real issue is getting sentencing commensurate with the crimes.
Convictions on good cases are occurring, the length of the terms of confinement are not increasing overall, creating the "In -and Out"
for offenders of Motor Vehicle Crimes. The same holds true in the Juvenile system. Motor Vehicle Thefts disrupt everyday life for the
working men and women in the communities that the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force serves. The citizens not only feel less
secure, they are also forced into circumstances that cause them to miss work, the ability to get their children to school, even being
able to get food for their families. Businesses also suffer from the inability to continue providing the services that they would normally
supply, thereby affecting other businesses as well, causing a domino effect and in some instances, crippling a business or
independent businessman, whose sole means of providing the service is the vehicle that was stolen. This equates to an enormous
economic impact on the citizens and businesses in the coverage area.
2.3 Provide an assessment of the fraud -related motor vehicle crime problem in the coverage area of this application. Include loss data
consistent with the reported incident numbers above.

MVCPATaskforce Grant Application
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force has not noticed an increase in Fraud Related Motor Vehicle Crimes over the past years.
There were some title frauds, some insurance frauds and VIN frauds (Clones from out of the area). The 2022 grant year showed only
seven fraud cases investigated by the task force. There were 8 FRMVC cases that the Task Force worked in 2023 grant year. The
most recent cases involved "Cloned" vehicles from outside the coverage area. These types of cases seem to be on the rise and
involve vehicles from the Houston area as well. The dealerships in the coverage area have mainly dealt with "Key FOB Swaps", and
rarely have any fraudulent purchases, though a few have occurred. With the increase of internet sales from dealerships, remarkably,
this area has seen very few cases arise from these sales. Title frauds have been minimal and almost all of the cases in the past have
been vehicles purchased in Houston and brought to the Beaumont area to be registered, where it was discovered that the title(s) were
in fact fraudulent.
2.4 Provide an assessment of motor vehicle crime not covered above like insurance fraud, preventing stolen vehicles from entering
Mexico, bridge/port stolen vehicle export crime, disruption of cartels and organized criminal enterprises related to motor vehicle crime,
etc...
The Port of Beaumont has its own Police Department as well as the Jefferson County Marine Unit and the U.S. Coast Guard, which
patrols the Port of Beaumont and the Neches and Sabine Rivers. These rivers are the inlets from the Gulf of Mexico which actually
puts the Port of Beaumont, 42 miles inland and is still a deep water Port. The Port of Beaumont is also served by three rail carriers,
BNSF, Kansas City Southern and Union Pacific. The Port of Beaumont is primarily a bulk cargo port, meaning very few if any vehicles
go through the port for transport. The vehicles that do go through the port are almost exclusively U.S. Military vehicles. The Port of
Beaumont is one of the main ports in the nation used for Military equipment transportation due to its location on the Gulf of Mexico
and it is the Headquarters for the U.S. Army's 842nd Transportation Battalion, which specializes in port logistics. The Southeast Texas
Auto Theft task Force has a working relationship with the Port Police and are rarely, if ever, called upon by them in regard to a vehicle
of interest. This is due to the type of cargo that enters and exits the port.

MVCPA Taskfo rce Grant Application
Strategy: Reduce the incidence of Burglary of a Motor Vehicle and Theft From a Vehicle 1 Catalytic Converter Theft
Goals: - Identify and Target Offenders and Prolific Offenders - Collect Intelligence - Collaborate with Law Enforcement Agencies and
other Organizations - Community Crime Prevention Campaign
Activities: Identity and target Offenders and Prolific Offenders: Offenders in motor vehicle burglary and theft from a motor vehicle will
be identified through analysis of incoming offense reports, intelligence gained from arrests, informants, other law enforcement
agencies, surveillance observations, bait vehicle operations, repair shop inspections, salvage yard inspections, metal rocycler
inspections, as well as, parts resale location inspections. The Beaumont Police Department Real Time Crime Center, is also used to a
degree to determine patterns or trends in these offenses. The offenders will be the target of investigations based on the method of the
crime, types of vehicles burglarized, property taken, geographical location of the crimes and any information or evidence pointing to or
linking them to the crime(s). Covert operations will be used to target burglary of a motor vehicle offenders, such as, buys of stolen
property from auto burglaries, Bait Operations and predatory theft ("jugger") bait operations, to identify and determine if there is an
organized criminal enterprise involved. Catalytic Converter Theft will be addressed as well. FLOCK Cameras and LPR's will be
utilized as well as the Real Time Crime Center to collect and analyze data within time frames and determine if there is a viable
suspect vehicle and or actor. Intelligence collection, analysis and collaboration with other law enforcement agencies, in and out of the
coverage area will be essential. Developing relationships with privately owned businesses, in and out of the coverage area, that deal
in catalytic converter sales or purchases, will be needed in order to obtain information or intelligence on potential or confirmed actors
in these thefts. That type of networking is already in place and work is being done to expand those contacts.
Collaboration with other law enforcement agencies and other organizations: Collaboration with law enforcement agencies in and out
of the project area and other MVCPAAuto Theft Task Forces to determine crime trends, patterns, suspected offenders and recover
stolen property, through intelligence sharing. This includes information or intelligence involving juvenile offenders. Assist other
agencies with auto crime cases, which involve Burglary of a Motor Vehicle or Theft of Property or Parts from a Motor Vehicle. This
collaboration will be necessary in determining if the crimes are being committed by an organized ring, if it is one individual or a crime
of opportunity. The collaboration would include the District Attorney's Offices in the jurisdictions affected, to help them understand the
scope and importance of the crime(s) and provide any additional information that might be needed to properly prosecute the
offender(s) for maximum result.
Community Crime Prevention and Awareness is a component of the overall program. Information and instruction for the public is
important to aid in the prevention of even one auto related crime. The Task Force will continue the efforts to educate the public in as
many forums as are available; Neighborhood Association Meetings, Civic Organizations, Citizens Police Academy, Media Interviews,
Police I Community Events, and Public Service Announcements through the Beaumont Police Department, along with Social Media
and a Billboard advertising Motor Crimes Prevention campaign. The billboard advertising campaign will be as high profile as possible,
focusing on Prevention tips to reduce burglary of a motor vehicle and presenting constant reminder via the billboards. The goal will be
educating the public on locking vehicles, removing items of value, especially firearms, as well as personal identification, taking the
keys out of the vehicle and learning how to reduce the chances of becoming a victim of a Motor Vehicle Crime. This strategy will be to
give constant reminders of Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention by a saturation of messages via billboards which specifically target motor
vehicle owners in high profile areas along major freeways, and roadways in the coverage area, concentrating on the highest

MVCPA Taskforce Grant Application
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will employ multiple Strategies, Goals and Activities to reduce the incidence of Motor
Vehicle Theft in a comprehensive program to confront and reduce the problem.
Strategy: Reduce the Incidence of Motor Vehicle Theft
Goals: - Identify and Target Offenders and Prolific Offenders - Collect Intelligence - Collaborate with Law Enforcement Agencies and
other Organizations - Community Crime Prevention Campaign
Activities: Identify and target Offenders and Prolific Offenders: Offenders involved in motor vehicle theft will be identified through
intelligence gained from offense reports, arrests, informants, other law enforcement agencies, surveillance observations, bait vehicle
operations, use of the LPR systems, such as, FLOCK Cameras and LPR's; such as the Axon Camera system which acts as an LPR
and are installed on all Beaumont Police Department patrol vehicles, will be utilized, as well as, the Real Time Crime Center to collect
and analyze data within time frames and determine if there is a viable suspect and/ or actor. Intelligence collection, analysis and
collaboration with other law enforcement agencies, in and out of the coverage area will be essential. repair shop inspections, used car
dealership inspections, salvage yard inspections, metal recyclor inspections, as well as parts resale location Inspections. The
offenders would be the target of investigations based on the method of the crime, types of vehicles stolen, other property taken,
geographical location of the crimes and any information or evidence pointing to or linking them to the crime(s). The utilization of covert
operations, such as surveillance of offenders and buys of stolen vehicles and/or parts to determine the origin and assist in the
identification of other offenders or chop shops. The use of legally obtained search warrants for places, things, phones, phone records
and other data bases will be employed to thoroughly investigate the cases, as well as tracking orders and other surveillance
techniques as needed.
Collaborate with other law enforcement agencies and other organizations: Collaborate with law enforcement agencies in and out of
the project area, to determine crime trends, patterns, suspected offenders and recover stolen vehicles and other property, through
intelligence sharing, including juvenile offenders. Assist other agencies with auto crime cases, which involve Theft of a Motor Vehicle,
or Theft of Component Parts from a Motor Vehicle. This collaboration will be necessary in determining if the crimes are being
committed by an organized ring, if it is one individual, or a crime of opportunity. The collaboration would include the District Attorney's
Offices in the jurisdictions affected, in order to help them understand the scope and importance of the crime(s), and provide any
additional information that might be needed to properly prosecute the offender(s) for maximum result. The collaboration would also
include working with other MVCPAAuto Theft Task forces, NICB and insurance companies on insurance fraud cases, cargo thefts,
and cloned or altered vehicles. It would also entail working with the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles and local tax offices on
fraudulent titles, and conducting 68A inspections, to determine if vehicles are stolen.
Community Crime Prevention and Awareness is a component of the overall program. Information and instruction for the public is
important to aid in the prevention of even one auto related crime. The Task Force will continue the offorts to educate the public in as
many forums as are available; Neighborhood Association Meetings, Civic Organizations, Citizens Police Academy, Media Interviews,
Police / Community Events, and PuUlic Service Announcements through the Beaumont Police Department, along with Social Media
and a billboard advertising campaign. The billboard advertising campaign will be as high profile as possible, focusing on Prevention
tips to reduce Motor Vehicle Theft, presenting constant reminders via the billboards. The goal will be educating the public on locking
vehicles, removing i€ems of value, especially firearms, as well as personal identification, taking the keys out of the vehicle and
learning how to reduce the chances of becoming a victim of a Motor Vehicle Crime. This strategy will be to give constant reminders of
Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention by a saturation of messages via billboards, which specifically target motor vehicle owners, in high
profile areas along major freeways, and roadways in the coverage area, concentrating on the highest populated areas where
exposure will reach the biggest audience. Messages that inform citizens and citizens will hopefully practice, taking the keys out of
their vehicles, not leaving their vehicles running unattended, locking their vehicles and not leaving important personal identification
and / or vehicle titles in the vehicle. This would include not buying vehicles without a title.
3.3 Functions of the proposed program related to fraud -related motor vehicle crime (such as title and registration fraud)

The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will Identify and Target Offenders and Prolific Offenders involved in Fraud Related Motor
Vehicle Crimes. These actors will be identified through Intelligence gained from arrests, Informants, other Law Enforcement Agencies
and Anonymous Tips with corroboration of the information received. The Task Force will utilize LPR's and data -mining to Develop and
Identify Offenders, as well as, 68(A) inspections and NICE.
The Offenders will be Targets of investigations based on the Method of the crime, types of vehicles stolen, where the vehicle is
recovered and any information pointing to or linking the offender(s) to the crime(s). The Task Force will utilize covert operations to
target offenders of these crimes, to include buying stolen vehicles using the internet, using undercover operatives to target Fraud -
Related Motor Vehicle Theft offenders. The objective of these investigations will be to Identify, arrest and charge the actors, as well as
determining if there is a criminal nexus to any organized criminal enterprises, which would broaden the investigations to reveal as
many offenders as possible. The use of legally obtained search warrants for places, things, phones, phone records and other data
bases will be employed to thoroughly investigate the cases, as well as tracking orders and other surveillance techniques as needed.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will Collaborate with Law Enforcement Agencies both in and out of the Project area,
Other MVCPA State Task Forces, Tax Offices, TXDMV, NICE and Insurance Companies to ascertain crime trends, patterns,
suspected offenders, recover stolen vehicles, property and share intelligence. The collaboration will include assisting other law
enforcement agencies with Motor Vehicle Thefts. By doing so, essential intelligence and information can be used to determine if the
crimes are being committed by individual or an Organized Criminal Network. The Task Force will also collaborate with District
Attorney's Offices in the affected jurisdictions to help them understand the scope and importance of the crime(s) and provide
additional information or expertise that would aid in the effective prosecution of the offender to provide a positive outcome for the
victims, the community, the State of Texas and insurance companies as well.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will also conduct Law Enforcement and Community Education Awareness Presentations 1
Classes, The purpose of the presentations for Law Enforcement would be to increase their knowledge and awareness of Fraud -
Related motor vehicle crime information, pertaining to trends in fraudulent titles, Registration Fraud, Insurance Fraud, Odometer
Fraud, Vin Fraud and Identity Fraud Sales. The information presented to Law Enforcement officers will deal directly with detection and
prevention of Fraud -Related Motor Vehicle Crimes. This would also allow officers to relay information to citizens personally and further
educate the community about methods to avoid becoming a victim of a Fraud -Related Motor Vehicle Crime.
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task force has established a good working relationship and rapport with the community that we have
served over that last 30 years. The Community Presentations would be used to strengthen that relationship and establish new
contacts. Updated, relevant information pertaining to steps citizens can take to avoid becoming a victim of a fraud -related motor
vehicle crime, would be presented in an effort to educate the community. This education would help reduce incidences of this type of
crime, Things such as, always get a title and look closely at the title when purchasing vehicles from individuals and even dealerships.
Also, if the deal looks too good to be true, it usually is. Other things would pertain to how the purchase, such as an internet sale,
should be handled to avoid not just fraud, but bodily harm. Driving to pick-up an internet purchase with a large quantity of cash at a
location of the sellers choosing is always a very bad idea. The task force would strive to stress the importance of safety and legality to
avoid becoming a victim.
3.4 Functions of the proposed program related to preventing motor vehicle crime (motor vehicle theft, burglary from a motor vehicle and
fraud -related motor vehicle crime)

MVCPA Taskforce Grant Application
The Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will continue to reach out to the communities in the project area in an effort to increase
the awareness and educate the public on the various types of motor vehicle crimes. The focus will remain, as it has been in the past,
to instruct citizens in ways to avoid becoming a victim.
Motor Vehicle Theft The public will be educated in the manners in which a vehicle can be stolen, without giving away instructions on
how to steal a vehicle. Leaving keys or FOB's in vehicles, leaving a vehicle running and unattended, loaning a vehicle and owning a
vehicle that is prone to, or easily stolen, are all methods for theft of a vehicle. Keys left in vehicles are the highest percentage of Motor
Vehicle Thefts and reiterating this point to the public is a priority. Making sure all keys are accounted for and not leaving a spare in the
vehicle. Taking the keys out of the vehicle every time it is left and making sure it is locked. Leaving a vehicle running to warm it up, or
cool it off, unattended; Leaving a vehicle running at the store unattended, or leaving the keys laying around in a public place where
others have access to them will also be stressed. Vehicles that are prone to being stolen, such as older model trucks, where the
steering column can be broken and the vehicle will start. Ideas for steering wheel immobilizing bars could be used, such as the old
school "Club". Newer model vehicles such as Kia and Hyundai's can also use a "Club", but more importantly, there are now updates
for these vehicles that will prevent easy thefts, which many in the public are not aware of. Presentations to citizens will be conducted
in numerous forums, such as using the local media interviews, social media, Neighborhood Association Meetings, Civic group
meetings, Church group meetings, Cops and Kids events and Public Service Announcements and a billboard advertising campaign
stressing the importance of locking your vehicle, taking valuables from the vehicle, especially firearms and never leaving the keys in
the vehicle or leaving the vehicle running unattended.
Burglary of a Motor Vehicle The public will educated on the importance of taking valuables, especially firearms, out of the vehicle,
leaving nothing in view from the outside of the vehicle, locking the vehicle and taking the keys. The public will receive instruction on
personal safety as well. When parking a vehicle, paying attention to the surroundings, parking in well lit or visible areas. Ensuring that
when they arrive, they thought ahead and hid or removed any items of value that are not going with them. Predators will wait in
parking lots at the mall, gym, grocery store, hike and bike trails, parks, soccer fields, gas pumps or any other place to watch for a
victim to hide their purse, laptop, or other items of value after arriving and walk away. The Predator now knows exactly what was
hidden and where. When leaving a financial institution victims often walk out with enve;opes in their hand. These predators are
watching and will follow these victims to their first stop and as soon as the victim walks away, the offenders will strike and take the
money that the victim just received. Paying attention to the surroundings, especially when leaving or arriving to a destination will be
stressed. Presentations to citizens will be conducted in numerous forums, such as using the local media interviews, social media,
Neighborhood Association Meetings, Civic group meetings, Church group meetings, Cops and Kids events and Public Service
Announcements and a billboard Motor Vehicle Crimes Prevention advertising campaign, focusing on locking vehicles, taking
valuables out of the vehicle, especially firearms; never leaving the keys in the vehicle or leaving the vehicle running unattended. The
billboards, which will be in high profile areas along freeways and roadways in the coverage area, will target motor vehicle owners and
users as they are driving the roadways of the coverage area. The billboards will be rotated and digital billboards will also be
employed.
Fraud Related Motor Vehicle Crimes: Updated, relevant information pertaining to steps citizens can take to avoid becoming a victim of
a fraud -related motor vehicle crime, would be presented in an effort to educate the community. This education would help reduce
incidences of this type of crime. Things such as, always get a title and look closely at the title when purchasing vehicles from
individuals and even dealerships. Also, if the deal looks too good to be true, it usually is. Other things would pertain to how the
purchase, such as an internet sale, should be handled to avoid not just fraud, but bodily harm. Driving to pick-up an internet purchase
with a large quantity of cash at a location of the sellers choosing is always a very bad idea. The task force would strive to stress the
importance of safety and legality to avoid becoming a victim. Presentations to citizens will be conducted in numerous forums, such as
using the local media for televised I radio interviews, social media, Neighborhood Association Meetings, Civic group meetings, Church
group meetings, Cops and Kids events and Public Service Announcements.
3.5 Functions of the proposed program for other motor vehicle crimes investigations and activities consistent with the statutory
requirements (preventing stolen vehicles from entering Mexico, stopping illegal export of stolen vehicle from bridge/ outbound port
operations, disruption of cartel or organized criminal enterprises using stolen motor vehicles or fraud related motor vehicle crime,
insurance fraud, otc... )
o Port of Beaumont has its own Police Department as well as the Jefferson County Marine Unit and the U.S. Coast Guard, which
patrols the Port of Beaumont and the Neches and Sabine Rivers. These rivers are the inlets from the Gulf of Mexico which actually
puts the Port of Beaumont, 42 miles inland and is still a deep water Port. The Port of Beaumont is also served by three rail carriers,
BNSF, Kansas City Southern and Union Pacific. The Port of Beaumont is primarily a bulk cargo port, meaning very few if any vehicles
go through the port for transport. The vehicles that do go through the port are almost exclusively U.S. Military vehicles. The Port of
Beaumont is one of the main ports in the nation used for Military equipment transportation due to its location on the Gulf of Mexico
and it is the Headquarters for the U.S. Army's 842nd Transportation Battalion, which specializes in port logistics. The Southeast Texas
Auto Theft task Force has a working relationship with the Port Police and are rarely, if over, called upon by them in regard to a vehicle
of interest. This is due to the type of cargo that enters and exits the port.
3.6 Collaboration Effort -- Describe the taskforce method to collaborate, and not duplicate existing activities. Describe the cross
boundaries regional approach to grant activity implementation. Describe how the applicant staff and jurisdiction will coordinate with
other taskforces and law enforcement agencies to implement this program.

agencies as well, The relationships with the four county coverage area District Attorney's Offices are good and cooperation is the
"norm" on both sides. These collaborations have involved numerous cases of organized criminal activity as well as individuals and
these relationships continue and grow stronger. The Task Force will also collaborate with numerous other state agencies, such as
TXDMV, DPS, tax offices and other task forces throughout the state. These collaborations will include 68(A) inspections, title frauds at
tax offices, TXDMV field offices and registration issues and crimes that will arise from those agencies. Communication and
intelligence sharing with law enforcement and multiple points of contact within the task force, enable the task force to work with other
task forces other law enforcement and civilian services related to working on motor vehicle crimes. This communication ensures that
duplication of tasks is kept to a minimum.

grant program effectiveness. Describe management and staff participation. Include descriptions of systems (forms and software) that
will be used to ensure reliable and accurate data is collected and reported. Describe any other evaluation methods used In the
applicant agency to determine effectiveness or cost efficiency of the program.
The local evaluation process establishes accountability and measurement of progress through collection of data and information
throughout the chain of command. Investigators are required to keep activity logs and submit monthly reports to the Program
Manager. The Task Force Supervisor reviews cases and monitors the activities of investigators. The Program Director oversees the
entire operation, including the field supervisor, and maintains records of activity and spending. The Program Director works closely
with the Beaumont CFO's grant coordinator and reports as necessary to the department heads of the participating agencies to
discuss progress and/or problems.
NIBRS data for all agencies within the project area will be closely monitored to determine the overall impact of Task Force efforts.
Personal activity logs and specific reports will be maintained to log progress on stated objectives. These include information detailing
such things as the number of bait operations, inspections and public awareness initiatives performed. They will also record other
items like arrests made, cases filed, vehicles recovered, properties seized NADA and other values of the property, as well as the
dispositions of the property upon completion of the cases.
Progress of the program will be evaluated monthly. Each investigator will complete a monthly report based on MVCPA reporting
categories and the specific strategies, activities and goals of this grant. Each report will be accompanied by documentation supporting
the information given. The Project Manager will then compile that information into the quarterly Progress Reports that are forwarded to
MVCPA. All other MVCPA required reporting will be completed by the Program Manager, such as the year end progress report.
4.2 Provide any other suggested measures that would better reflect the law enforcement or prevention work that the proposed program
will perform. If the suggested measure fits into one of the stated goals above please indicate.

MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution to approve the purchase of GoodSAM
software as a service from GoodSAM Instant.Help, based in
London, for use by public safety dispatchers.
BACKGROUND
GoodSAM allows dispatchers to access a caller's phone camera in real-time without requiring
additional apps, providing an immediate visual assessment. The platform precisely pinpoints a
caller's location, direction, and speed, which significantly improves response times.
GoodSAM enables the instant sharing of images and videos from any mobile device, enhancing
coordination among responders. In situations where audio or video calls are not feasible, the instant
chat feature ensures clear communication. Additionally, remote diagnosis and interviews are
facilitated through video consultations, making emergency responses more effective.
Real-time document signing is possible with GoodSAM, streamlining emergency procedures and
ensuring timely agreements. The platform's video forwarding feature gives nearby officers
immediate situational awareness, aiding in suspect identification and response planning. Vital
signs can be monitored through video, providing crucial health information during emergencies.
GoodSAM also offers transcription and translation services, breaking down language barriers and
supporting communication with the hard of hearing. The platform allows for seamless multi -
agency collaboration by sharing video across police, fire, and ambulance services. It can ingest
video from drones, bodycams, and CCTV, providing comprehensive situational awareness. Secure
video storage options ensure compliance with retention policies.
Implementing GoodSAM will enhance our city's emergency response efficiency, coordination,
and overall public safety. Its diverse features ensure that our responders are equipped with the best
tools for effective and timely interventions.
The cost for the Instant On Scene Basic Package will be $60,000, paid annually. GoodSAM is a
sole source vendor.

Dear Zachary,
Following the quote we provided last year for Chief Singler, you have ask for a refreshed
quote. We are able to hold the process from last March but would ask that this proceeds
within one month of this letter. So repeating the last quote:
Please accept this as a quote to supply the GoodSAM platform across Police, Fire and
Ambulance services across Beaumont. As discussed, we can provide the video system and
then additional modules (such as App related functionality) on top.
We would propose for video:
Instant On Scene Basic Package (up to 10 concurrent streams which can also include
ingestion of video from Drones / CCTV etc), unlimited licences, unlimited usage, transcribe
and translate functionality and vital signs analysis. ITB of video storage. USD 60,000 /
annum. This includes set up costs, webinar training and technical support.
We offer considerably more functionality such as App based tasking / alerting / communication
(which can be used for cardiac arrests), major incident management and the ability to forward
video to other staff through the App. We can have these components open for you to trial for
the first 4 months, but if you wanted to use the full suite of GoodSAM products, please budget
for an additional USD 40,000 per annum.
These prices exclude any local taxes required and are valid up to 3rd June 2024
If you would like us to undertake any more demonstrations or webinars, please let us know.
Thanks again and very best wishes
Mark Wilson

Sole Source Letter
Dear Zachary
GoocISAM provides a plethora of solutions on a global scale that individually are unique and
together provide a comprehensive solution that no other service can provide. As such
GoocISAM is a sole source for the functionality required.
By way of background, GoocISAM comprises three main solutions: GoodSAM Cardiac,
GoodSAM Pro and GoodSAM Video (Instant -On -Scene). These are deployed across the UK,
Australia, New Zealand, USA and in many other parts of the worlds with over 400
Organisations including the world's largest ambulance and police organisations. These
solutions are only available from a single vendor (GoodSAM). The software is highly
proprietary and considered to be confidential intellectual property and trade secret of
GoocISAM Ltd.
GoocISAM Ltd has patent applications in progress for a number of products with confidential
IP entirely developed in house. There are no third -party components to GoodSAM products
and no other party is authorised into any element of development or maintenance.
GoocISAM is a single source of all aspects of the GoocISAM suite, from development to
deployment / instillation and integration through to audit and maintenance. We have
regular cycles of enhancements and updates that are provided free and again do not involve
any other parties.
To provide examples of single source nature:
GoodSAM Cardiac: GoocISAM Cardiac crowd sources resuscitation. This is a highly governed
and customisable solution. The extreme levels of governance that has been built in (all
responders are checked in terms of ID and can be placed into categories) means emergency
services can be assured of who they are alerting. This is unique to GoodSAM and has
resulted in the widespread adoption of the platform across the UK, Australia and New
Zealand. It means it can also be safely used to alert responders (from your own and other
1 Curtain Rd, London EC2 A 3JX www.goodsamapp.org
organisations) to both public and private addresses. There are many other unique features
including KML map dependent rules, inbuilt radio function, the world's largest AED registry
(with unique mapping mechanisms) and ability to stream video directly to dispatch. This
platform has also been used to deploy > 750,000 NHS Volunteers in the UK as part of the
Coronavirus response. This is considerably more than the number of drivers on Uber and
Deliveroo combined and is managing around 15,000 tasks a day. This has radically (and
uniquely) changed the volunteer / third sector.
GoodSAM Pro: GoodSAM Pro is a comprehensive dispatch and communications platform
for staff. Utilising the same technology as GoodSAM Cardiac there are communications and
mapping features unique to GoodSAM. For example, toggling between on duty and off,
visible and invisible and "radio" function to colleagues or individuals from other
organisations. The way administrators can interact with the groups, for example in major
incidents to, for example, alert only certain people in only a certain area is unique.
GoodSAM Monitoring: GoodSAM Monitoring enables scheduling of text messages that
provide a one-time link to a patient specific survey page which a patient or career can
complete with current signs and symptoms. This is particularly useful for monitoring
patients for example with Covid-19 at home. There are a number of variables that
organizations can introduce including, interval and duration of monitoring, the
questionnaire template and vital signs that trigger warnings to the patient with messages as
to what to do next.
GoodSAM Location Video: GoodSAM has led the process of remote triage through video.
We have developed a system that enables dispatchers to open any callers mobile phone
camera (on any network) and instantly locate (and track them) and stream video. This
mechanism, speed and reliability of this is unique. We have developed techniques that
continue the 911 call and ensure the system is highly reliable across all phone systems and
optimised video quality when bandwidth is low. All of these features have been developed
in house. We also have a unique ability to forward this video and store it in a HIPAA
complainant way for different durations. The platform also enables 2-way video with the
benefit of bringing in additional people (relatives / translators) into the call. Our video
management system also can uniquely take input of video from any source (e.g. CCTV, Go
Pro, Body Cams) with a RTMP feed. Again, the management of this, passing it through our
artificial intelligence engine and then having a controlled real time forwarding, audit and
storage system is unique.
GoodSAM Evidence Upload: GoocISAM provides an appless ability for the public to upload
images / videos from their phone. This is used extensively by Police services.
GoocISAM also has unique features within the solutions. For example, our Artificial
Intelligence Heart rate monitoring system uses a proprietary technique of server side (no
download needed) analysis of video to display heart rate. Again, this is currently undergoing
patent protection.
There are also a number of aspects of GoodSAM as a business that are unique including:
1 Curtain Rd, London EC2 A 3JX www.goodsamapp.org
Track record of integration — GoodSAM integrates with a plethora of CAD and Patient
management systems including MIS, Integraph, Fujitsu, Storm and many others. There has
been no system we cannot integrate with.
Scalable Service — because GoodSAM is cloud based we can horizontally scale in an instant.
When recruiting the 750,000 volunteers for example, we were recruiting at 4,000 new
people per second. We could bring on new servers in an instant to achieve this.
Automated Analysis and Real Time Alerting - the GoodSAM platform has an inbuilt data
analysis system which gives real time reports on a plethora of variables.
The governance and systems behind the GoodSAM monitoring systems are also unique in
insuring that patients are immediately informed of what to do if their symptoms are signs
are outside of acceptable limits.
We hope the above explains why there is no other platform that can provide many of the
individual functions that GoodSAM does and certainly no other that can provide them in a
manner that enables them to be used concurrently to provide a comprehensive system. If
you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
With very best wishes

MEETING DATE: June 4, 2024
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a request for a Specific Use Permit to allow an
event center in the CBD (Central Business District) for property
located at 515 Magnolia Avenue.
BACKGROUND
Ebonia Winfield is requesting a Specific Use Permit to operate an event center in the CBD
(Central Business District). TPB Studio, will operate as an event center or venue offering flexible
space configurations for gatherings of different sizes.
The Central Business District is intended to accommodate the commercial offices and service,
residential and public activities. The use of an event center at this location will promote
pedestrian activity and aid in economic growth of the downtown area. Although the CBD district
does not have parking requirements, our City's Traffic Engineer has concerns that on -street
parking could become overcrowded and prevent emergency services access during larger events.
At a Joint Public Hearing held on May 20, 2024, the Planning Commission recommended 8:1 to
approve the request for a Specific Use Permit to allow an event center in the CBD (Central
Business District) for property located at 515 Magnolia Avenue, with the following conditions:
Construction plans must meet all requirements by Water Utilities for water and
sanitary sewer services, including any requirements of the City's backflow, pre-
treatment and/or FOG program.
2. Construction plans shall comply with all applicable Fire and Building Code
requirements.
To ensure safety and prevent future parking issues during large events, the owner
will need to submit a written parking agreement with nearby property owners to
ensure proper overflow parking. It will be the responsibility of the owner to
enforce overflow parking during events.

Dear Section 5339 Transit Operator,
Attached is a list showing the full Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 funding allocations for the
individual Section 5339 operators in Texas' urbanized areas under 200,000 in
population.
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) used the available apportionment
posted online by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) on April 4, 2024.
As identified in this State Apportionment Letter, the Designated Recipient
authorizes the assignment/allocation of Section 5339 to the Direct Recipient(s)
recognized for each urbanized area. The undersigned agrees to the State
Apportionment Letter and the amounts allocated/assigned to each urbanized area.
Each Direct Recipient is responsible for its application to the FTA to receive Section

Transportation Development Credits (TDC) are available for eligible projects and
