Urban Area: Orlando Project Title: 2023 Regional License Plate Reader Program IFFY 2023 Funding Request Amount: Amount dedicated for LETPA (if none, Enter 0) Is the project shareable, deployable or both? both 2,000,000 Provide a summary description of the project answering each of the questions below. (spell out all acronyms and abbreviations) What is the scope of the problem (please define the nexus to a threat or act of terrorism)? The capability to identify, track, and locate vehicles associated with potential threats through active and passive surveillance and search procedures is an identified gap the region needs to enhance. Regional investigative and response efforts to acts of terrorism involving vehicles are key components of our strategy. In an effort to build and sustain our regional capacity, an effort is underway to expand the regional license plate reader program. The Orlando -Orange UASI region is a centralized hub for tourism and transient populations. Within the jurisdictions of Orlando -Orange UASI lies multiple transportation hubs such as the Orlando International Airport, the Orlando Executive Airport, Sun Rail (commuter rail), the future Brightline Rail (inter -city rail), as well as the Lynx main bus terminal. These transportation hubs increase the ability for potential terrorists to move freely and quickly to and from the region. The Orlando International Airport alone has more than 21,000 employees and is the busiest airport in the state, seeing more than 55 million passengers a year. The tourist and residential population continues to grow throughout the Central Florida region, thereby creating more opportunities to harm the public. Enhancing the region's ability to build and sustain the capability to detect, track, and locate vehicles involved in threats or acts of terrorism by providing the proper tools to monitor the areas surrounding these hubs is essential. This funding will allow Orlando -Orange UASI jurisdictions to expand the regional UASI License Plate Reader (LPR) program. This grant, UASI FY2023, will allow funds to build out to 10 additional law enforcement agencies, the Orlando Police Department, Orange County Sheriffs Office, Seminole County Sheriffs Office, Winter Park Police Department, Windermere Police Department, Ocoee Police Department, Kissimmee Police Department, Lake County Sheriffs Office, and Clermont Police Department. The goal is to continue to incorporate additional agencies to the uniform license plate reader platform. Since 2011, the region has been building a network on License Plate Reader platforms. These platforms have consisted of multiple vendors and a wide variety of LPR hardware associated with these programs. Moving forward, the region will be able to share equipment and data seamlessly via the available platforms. This program will support the purchase of fixed, portable, and mobile LPRs. This agreement wil allow assets to be focused regionally instead of locally, maximizing the program's effectiveness in Orlandc Orange UASI. How will the grant funds address this issue? The State of Florida has been trying to build a program that would allow law enforcement agencies to share license plate data in real-time but has not been successful. The stakeholders in this region have developed strategies to pool resources together to share data across jurisdictional lines with uniformity in information sharing. Grant funds will provide the essential equipment needed to reduce the identified gap. Screening, Search, and Detection are essential in identifying, discovering, or locating threats through both active and passive surveillance/search procedures. Additional LPR equipment will support screening, search, and detection operations, enhancing the regions investigative and response capabilities. The project's overall goal is to improve and expand the region's capability to identify, track, and locate vehicles associated with potential threats through active and passive surveillance and search procedures. Data from this program will continue to be shared with all stakeholders and those outside of the region. This is addressed in Florida Domestic Security Strategy GOAL 2: Prevent and deter acts of terrorism, Objective 2.1: Information and Intelligence Sharing - Recognize, gather, analyze, and share terrorism information and intelligence with public and private partners incorporating the established fusion process, Objective 2.2: Interdiction of Threats - Ensure collaboration with public and private partners to investigate and interdict actionable threats, Objective 2.3: Identify Current and Emerging Threats - Monitor and analyze national and international trend patterns to identify current and emerging threats. Describe the capability gap(s) that this project will address ( only complete this section for new projects, enter NA if a sustainment project). What is the identified gap? N/A affected by the gap? N/A What are we paying for? Describe how this project will narrow or completely address the gap? N/A Describe the capability this project will sustain. (only complete this section if this is NOT a new project;for new projects enter NA) If applicable, list any FEMA grants that have previously provided a role in sustaining the capability. What is the current capability sustained by this project? Currently, the counties of Orange, Lake, Seminole, Osceola, Volusia, Polk, City of Orlando, Winter Park Police Department, and the University of Central Florida utilize a uniform License Plate Reader Platform. New agencies entering this UASI 2023 program that will also use a uniform LPR platform are the Windermere Police Department, Clermont Police Department, and Ocoee Police Department. Who is affected by the capability, or will be affected if the capability is lost? All law enforcement agencies are actively using the License Plate Reader technology for live time and investigative purposes. What has already been done to sustain this capability? The current agencies that have already received funds from previous grant cycles have agreed that the more agencies are involved in the program, the more it helps us all enhance inter-agency communication and sharing of information and intelligence. The incorporation of more LPRs will provide more accurate and timely license plate reader data for the region. Will this project sustain the capability at current levels or sustain it while also narrowing a gap? This project will sustain itself as all participating stakeholders will invest from their operating funds to cover the reoccurring expenses related to maintenance or expansion. To date, all stakeholder recipients have continued to do the LPRs sustainment. Select the primary core capablity the project will support Intelligence & Infor Sharing Does this project support one of the National Priority Areas (NPAs)? If so which one and how does the project address the priority? Describe how this project addresses gaps and/or sustainment in the THIRA and SPR for the primary core capability. If there are other relevant capabilities, describe how the project also addresses their gaps and/or sustainment. Page numbers must be provided. This project addresses the functional area of Analysis of Intelligence and Information outlined in the 2020 Orlando-Orange UASI THIRA (pg. 15). The SPR identifies a gap in the planning area, "Intelligence explicitly and information sharing is essential for addressing and sharing information about potential and ongoing threats to the community. There is a need for better regional collaboration." (2020 Orlando- Orange UASI SPR pg. 34). This project also enhances information and intelligence sharing and cooperation with federal agencies by tracking suspected terrorists, and WVID and biological identified vehicles. The FBI office in Atlanta is a sharing partner on this platform. This fulfills priority 3, listed on page 5 of the FY2021 HSGP NOFO. Additionally, the expansion of the license plate reader system directly impacts the gaps identified in the functional area of Screening, Search, and Detection noted in the 2020 Orlando-Orange UASI THIRA (pg. 17). The 2020 Orlando-Orange SPR identifies the functional area of Screening, Search, and Detection and identifies explicitly the gap in both planning and equipment. The planning area notes, "Screening, search and detection is essential to Identify, discover, or locate threats and/or hazards through active and passive surveillance/search procedures. The equipment area states: "there is a need for additional equipment that can support screening, search and detection operations" (2020 Orlando-Orange UASI SPR pg. 49). Florida's Domestic Security Strategic Plan Select one primary and a secondary goal and objective that this project supports. Primary: Prevent-Infor/Intell Sharing Secondary: Prevent -Interdiction of Threats Project Impact Statements Describe the criteria that should be evaluated to determine if this project was a success at the end of the grant performance period. The LPRs can locate vehicle information and location across jurisdictional lines through a shareable system with trackable results. The LPR application allows querying of all entries. A full chronological tracking system by all users is available in the system. A measurable product efficiency report can be derived for this system at any time by all users. How will the urban area's capabilities be enhanced by this project? The region will be better equipped to identify, track, and locate vehicles associated with potential threats, improving the investigations and response to incidents of terrorism. This system will share comprehensive vehicle data on identified vehicles with other agencies throughout our region and the state of Florida. What is the long-term plan to sustain the capability(ies) developed, enhanced or supported by this project? Each stakeholder will rely on internal funding to sustain their programs. Long-term program sustainment depends on a commitment from all the participating stakeholders to back and continue to support this intelligence -sharing partnership. Initial startup costs are the greatest hurdle to this program. 100% of the stakeholders that have started with this program are still using it.

Smith, Chief of Police SUBMITTED BY: Norton N. Bonaparte, Jr., ICMA-CM, City Manager SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2023 Memorandum Of Agreement For Participating Orlando/Orange Urban Area Security Initiative Agencies STRATEGIC PRIORITIES: ❑ Unify Downtown & the Waterfront ❑ Promote the City's Distinct Culture ❑ Update Regulatory Framework ❑ Redevelop and Revitalize Disadvantaged Communities SYNOPSIS: Approval of the 2023 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for participating with Orlando/Orange Urban Area (O/OUA) Security Initiative Agencies (SIA) is requested. FISCALISTAFFING STATEMENT: The Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) is providing financial assistance to the O/OUA in the amount $3,800,000 less the 5% fee for State management and administration through the Fiscal Year 2023 Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI). Any needed implementing budget amendments or procurement actions will be brought forward to the City Commission, as may be needed. BACKGROUND: The Orange County Sheriff's Office (OCSO) is the recipient for the O/OUA UASI grant program. The FDEM requires that the urban areas selected for funding take a regional metropolitan area approach to the development and implementation of the UASI grant program. That approach means involving core cities, core counties, contiguous jurisdictions, mutual aid partners and State agencies. Law enforcement agencies within the urban area which have been determined to be appropriate are those of the City of Orlando, Orange County, Seminole County, Lake County and Osceola County. The OCSO has expressed its desire to work with the O/OUA participants through the Urban Area Working Group process to enhance the O/OUA and its surrounding jurisdiction's ability to prevent, protect against, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism, or any other manmade or natural disaster. i2 0 P 00 � k, & CL-,, -t r In March, 2024, the OCSO entered into an agreement with the FDEM for a Federally Funded sub grant agreement. The MOA is, in essence, a joint venture between the cities, counties, the State and FEMA. The attached spread sheet relates to the "National Priority Regarding Video Surveillance" equipment project for the O/OUA. The spread sheet provides an overview of the entire project which will be managed and monitored by the OCSO. The City's Police Department has had automated license plate readers (ALPRs) on its vehicles and speed trailers for a number of years. The Seminole County Sheriff's Office, the Sanford Airport Authority's police department and the Volusia County Sheriff's Office have ALPRs located within and around Sanford with which the City's Police Department uses on a daily basis. The City's Police Department has also requested additional ALPRs in its present and previous budgets. The funding resulting from the MOA will increase the City Police Department's available ALPRs thereby enhancing the high quality law enforcement services provided to the City and its citizens (as well as the general public) and will, also, hopefully reduce City expenditures. LEGAL REVIEW: The Assistant City Attorney has reviewed and assisted in this matter and has no legal objections to the action proposed. RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends that the City Commission approve the MOA. SUGGESTED MOTION: "I move to approve the MOA, as proposed." Attachments: (1). MOA. (2). Grant spread sheet. 21'`.
