Traffic enforcement grant proposal will go to Pomona Council
]A proposed resolution accepting a state grant for traffic enforcement will go before the City Council Monday night.
If the council accepts the one-year state Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant for $369,955 it would allow the Police Department to carry out various activities designed to reduce traffic collisions, according to a city staff report.
The funds would pay for operations such as stings designed to capture people who have been arrested for driving under the influence, have a suspended or revoked driver's license and drive a vehicle after having appeared before a judge.
Special details will also be carried out focusing on speeding motorists, aggressive driving, seat-belt enforcement and activities designed to reduce motorcycle injuries and collisions, the report said.
In addition the grant is expected to provide funds to carry out 10 DUI/driver's license checkpoints.
