Each set of two officers would work a minimum 5 hour block (8:30A- 1:30P) and (10:30A- <br /> 3:30P) with the option of continuing beyond their scheduled times if traffic needs required their <br /> presence. It is anticipated that visitors will exit the park throughout the festival and no provision <br /> for after event traffic control is planned unless requested by the organizers or a significant <br /> traffic snarl ensues. ** <br /> Alton Baker Park is expected to remain open to the public during Hempfest and will receive the <br /> level of normally required police services at no additional charge to the Hempfest organizers. If <br /> additional police services are incurred beyond the usual and customary levels of normal <br /> use, Hempfest will be charged for actual services requiring police resources to be deployed <br /> in Alton Baker Park. Given that this event does not regulate the entry of exit of visitors, the <br /> parking lots and surrounding park area are included in the service area described. <br /> If this event is to be successfully conducted in a lawful manner, participants must be willing to <br /> adhere to applicable park rules, ordinances and state laws. There are prohibitions against <br /> overnight camping, illegal fires, alcohol use and controlled substances that are applicable to <br /> managing this event. We will provide a summary of applicable rules and laws to the event <br /> organizers prior to the event. The level of compliance can often be influenced by the cooperation <br /> or lack thereof by event organizers. <br /> Contracting for police service requires that we provide off duty officers at a time and one half <br /> overtime rate. The current rate charged for outside overtime is $63.00 per hour, per officer. <br /> As described above, the minimum required staffing level/configurations* for this event are <br /> as follows; <br /> Event foot patrols- 8:30AM- 11:OOPM = 14.5 hours @ $63.00 x 4 = $ 3654.00 <br /> Traffic control ** - 8:30AM- 1:30PM = 5.0 hours @ $63.00 x 2 = $ 630.00 <br /> Traffic control ** - 10:30AM- 3:30PM = 5.0 hours @ $63.00 x 2 = $ 630.00 <br /> Total $ 4914.00 <br /> *Additional policing services incurred beyond the scheduled interior foot patrols that require <br /> additional directed police resources will be billed accordingly. <br /> * *Traffic control required before or beyond the posted time based upon actual traffic congestion <br /> will require additional staffing and will be billed accordingly. <br /> Charges for police services will be billed through the city to the event organizer listed on the <br /> application following the event.
