Average Costs Per Resident for Police Services

Percent of City Budget Allocated to Law Enforcement Services
The Sheriff's Office budget incorporates full costs associated with law enforcement services.
Based on Santa Clara County 2010 census information.
Law Enforcement Services in the cities of Cupertino, Los Altos Hills, and Saratoga are provided under contract by the
County of Santa Clara Office of the Sheriff.
Monte Sereno's contract with Los Gatos Police Department for police services is for 80 hours per week only. The police
budget noted above is the flat rate for 80 hours.
The City of Sunnyvale includes both police and fire protection costs in the Sunnyvale Pulic Safety Department budget.
All budget numbers were obtained from city websites.
The above information may not reflect full law enforcement costs, since expenditures related to law enforcement may
be budgeted under a separate funding source. For example, vehicle costs may be budgeted under Fleet Operations
rather than Police Services.
A significant, one time property sale occurred in the City of Cupertino during fiscal year 2010/11 (HP - Apple). Specific
(sales tax) revenues therefore increased by approximately $22.7M, supporting a similar one-time increase to the FY
2013 General Fund expenditure budget. The majority of one time funds were budgeted for FY 2013 retiree medical and
capital improvement reserves. The remainder is represented as small budget increases or flat year over year changes
in the remaining GF categories. Allowing for the anomoly, the Cupertino Law Enforcement Budget is approximately 21%
of the adjusted GF budget.
