Section 4. Grant Purpose and Description - Provide a smnmary description of the project that is
to be funded by the MATPP. Briefly describe the grant objectives and the grant-funded strate�ies
and activities that wiil be implemented to achieve the objectives. Describe how the project meets
priorities established by the MATPP, if applicable. Use additional space if needed.
This is a request, based on feedback from the Boazd received by this writer on 2/17l00, for at
least a partial continuation of our FY 2000 proa am and implementation strategies funded by the
MATPP n ant. Because of the Board's decision to reduce funding, we will not be able to
continue the successful strategies we have developed at the same level as in past funding cycles.
These initiatives would not be possible without MATPP funding. A summary of our efforts from
the Sununer of 1999, included in the original submission, is no longer included as an attachment
to this section at the request of the Boazd.
Saint Paul Police investigators have long been awaze that there is a significant, and profitable,
market for illegitimate Hazley-Davidson motorcycles and their component parts. According to
SPPD Auto Theft Unit statistics, approximately 50% of the motorcycles stolen in St. Paul during
1999 (1/1/99 - 11/18/99) were Hazley-Davidson motorcycles. In 1998 that figure was 31%,
while in 1997 the figure was 40°l0. The motorcycles are stolen and used as is, but more often aze
"stripped" or parted-out. The component parts are then mixed with after-market items, the
"new" motorcycle is re-registered, and then it is sold to, oftentimes, unsuspecting buyers. This
cycle of crime causes loss to the original owners, to the insurance companies, to the unsuspecting
purchasers, and to future owners who pay increasingly higher costs to own a Harley-Davidson
motorcycle.
For the past two years, the Saint Paul Police have proposed and implemented a two-tiered project
aimed at reducing the rate of Harley-Davidson motorcycles being stolen in St. Paul, and
disrupting the possession, sale and transfer of stolen parts. We have used two strategies to
accomplish these objectives: 1) Identifying those individuals or groups associated with the thefrs
of Harley-Davidson motorcycles occurring in the City of St. Paul environs, and 2) Locating and
identifying sources of motorcycle parts that have been obtained from the theft of motorcycles.
Under past MATPP grant funding initiatives we were successful in identifying, and in several
cases referring for crizninal charges, suspects believed to be involved in some aspect of the
Hazley-Davidson motorcycle theft problem experienced in Saint Paul. In addition, we have
successfully recovered a few of the stolen motorcycles, or their parts, which in the past has
proven difficult to do.
Saint Paul Police requests FY 2001 grant monies to continue to fund our long-term investigative
strategy which entails the use of confldential and electronic intelligence/evidence sources,
surveillance, analysis, and the use of a leased decoy motorcycle. As was documented in the
summary included with the initial submission, the leased decoy motorcycle was successfully
deployed based on an analysis of theft trends in the downtown azeas of the city.
Form AT:O1 4 MATPB
(Attachment C)
,
pc -�3R
We did experience a problem in replicating the deployment of the leased motorcycle again during
the summer of 1999 a$er its initial successful use due to a need to tighten up the contractual
relationship with the vendor in lieu of City of St. Paul rules, but that problem has been rectified
with a new contract negotiated between the City and the vendor. As a result we will be makin�
addiuonal deployments through the remainder of FY 2000 and into the FY 2001 grant period.
The second strategy we requested funding for was to continue the assignment of officers to
record throu�h the use of photographs and other documentation engine and component numbers
on Hazley-Davidson motorcycles legally encountered either throu�h uaffic stops or voluntary
contacts at festivals and other events in the City. The engine and component numbers would
have been documented in order to track and analyze the history of the motorcycles and(or
component parts in partnership with the Minnesota State Patrol, Minnesota Departrnent of Motor
Vehicles, and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, as we11 as to locate stolen parts. Based on
feedback from the Board we no longer are requesting funding for this strategy.
The Saint Paul Police also plan to continue providing formal and informal training with Team
investigators and patrol officers to assist in the above strategies, although funding for this is not
being sought.
The funding request for FY 2001 meets MATPP priorities for pro-active, long-term, effective
efforts, and crime analysis. The grant monies would be used to fund payments to informants, to
lease the decoy motorcycle, and to fund overtime for personnel dedicated solely to project
initiatives.

Section 4. Grant Purpose and Description - Provide a smnmary description of the project that is
to be funded by the MATPP. Briefly describe the grant objectives and the grant-funded strate�ies
and activities that wiil be implemented to achieve the objectives. Describe how the project meets
priorities established by the MATPP, if applicable. Use additional space if needed.
This is a request, based on feedback from the Boazd received by this writer on 2/17l00, for at
least a partial continuation of our FY 2000 proa am and implementation strategies funded by the
MATPP n ant. Because of the Board's decision to reduce funding, we will not be able to
continue the successful strategies we have developed at the same level as in past funding cycles.
These initiatives would not be possible without MATPP funding. A summary of our efforts from
the Sununer of 1999, included in the original submission, is no longer included as an attachment
to this section at the request of the Boazd.
Saint Paul Police investigators have long been awaze that there is a significant, and profitable,
market for illegitimate Hazley-Davidson motorcycles and their component parts. According to
SPPD Auto Theft Unit statistics, approximately 50% of the motorcycles stolen in St. Paul during
1999 (1/1/99 - 11/18/99) were Hazley-Davidson motorcycles. In 1998 that figure was 31%,
while in 1997 the figure was 40°l0. The motorcycles are stolen and used as is, but more often aze
"stripped" or parted-out. The component parts are then mixed with after-market items, the
"new" motorcycle is re-registered, and then it is sold to, oftentimes, unsuspecting buyers. This
cycle of crime causes loss to the original owners, to the insurance companies, to the unsuspecting
purchasers, and to future owners who pay increasingly higher costs to own a Harley-Davidson
motorcycle.
For the past two years, the Saint Paul Police have proposed and implemented a two-tiered project
aimed at reducing the rate of Harley-Davidson motorcycles being stolen in St. Paul, and
disrupting the possession, sale and transfer of stolen parts. We have used two strategies to
accomplish these objectives: 1) Identifying those individuals or groups associated with the thefrs
of Harley-Davidson motorcycles occurring in the City of St. Paul environs, and 2) Locating and
identifying sources of motorcycle parts that have been obtained from the theft of motorcycles.
Under past MATPP grant funding initiatives we were successful in identifying, and in several
cases referring for crizninal charges, suspects believed to be involved in some aspect of the
Hazley-Davidson motorcycle theft problem experienced in Saint Paul. In addition, we have
successfully recovered a few of the stolen motorcycles, or their parts, which in the past has
proven difficult to do.
Saint Paul Police requests FY 2001 grant monies to continue to fund our long-term investigative
strategy which entails the use of confldential and electronic intelligence/evidence sources,
surveillance, analysis, and the use of a leased decoy motorcycle. As was documented in the
summary included with the initial submission, the leased decoy motorcycle was successfully
deployed based on an analysis of theft trends in the downtown azeas of the city.
Form AT:O1 4 MATPB
(Attachment C)
,
pc -�3R
We did experience a problem in replicating the deployment of the leased motorcycle again during
the summer of 1999 a$er its initial successful use due to a need to tighten up the contractual
relationship with the vendor in lieu of City of St. Paul rules, but that problem has been rectified
with a new contract negotiated between the City and the vendor. As a result we will be makin�
addiuonal deployments through the remainder of FY 2000 and into the FY 2001 grant period.
The second strategy we requested funding for was to continue the assignment of officers to
record throu�h the use of photographs and other documentation engine and component numbers
on Hazley-Davidson motorcycles legally encountered either throu�h uaffic stops or voluntary
contacts at festivals and other events in the City. The engine and component numbers would
have been documented in order to track and analyze the history of the motorcycles and(or
component parts in partnership with the Minnesota State Patrol, Minnesota Departrnent of Motor
Vehicles, and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, as we11 as to locate stolen parts. Based on
feedback from the Board we no longer are requesting funding for this strategy.
The Saint Paul Police also plan to continue providing formal and informal training with Team
investigators and patrol officers to assist in the above strategies, although funding for this is not
being sought.
The funding request for FY 2001 meets MATPP priorities for pro-active, long-term, effective
efforts, and crime analysis. The grant monies would be used to fund payments to informants, to
lease the decoy motorcycle, and to fund overtime for personnel dedicated solely to project
initiatives.

Section 4. Grant Purpose and Description - Provide a smnmary description of the project that is
to be funded by the MATPP. Briefly describe the grant objectives and the grant-funded strate�ies
and activities that wiil be implemented to achieve the objectives. Describe how the project meets
priorities established by the MATPP, if applicable. Use additional space if needed.
This is a request, based on feedback from the Boazd received by this writer on 2/17l00, for at
least a partial continuation of our FY 2000 proa am and implementation strategies funded by the
MATPP n ant. Because of the Board's decision to reduce funding, we will not be able to
continue the successful strategies we have developed at the same level as in past funding cycles.
These initiatives would not be possible without MATPP funding. A summary of our efforts from
the Sununer of 1999, included in the original submission, is no longer included as an attachment
to this section at the request of the Boazd.
Saint Paul Police investigators have long been awaze that there is a significant, and profitable,
market for illegitimate Hazley-Davidson motorcycles and their component parts. According to
SPPD Auto Theft Unit statistics, approximately 50% of the motorcycles stolen in St. Paul during
1999 (1/1/99 - 11/18/99) were Hazley-Davidson motorcycles. In 1998 that figure was 31%,
while in 1997 the figure was 40°l0. The motorcycles are stolen and used as is, but more often aze
"stripped" or parted-out. The component parts are then mixed with after-market items, the
"new" motorcycle is re-registered, and then it is sold to, oftentimes, unsuspecting buyers. This
cycle of crime causes loss to the original owners, to the insurance companies, to the unsuspecting
purchasers, and to future owners who pay increasingly higher costs to own a Harley-Davidson
motorcycle.
For the past two years, the Saint Paul Police have proposed and implemented a two-tiered project
aimed at reducing the rate of Harley-Davidson motorcycles being stolen in St. Paul, and
disrupting the possession, sale and transfer of stolen parts. We have used two strategies to
accomplish these objectives: 1) Identifying those individuals or groups associated with the thefrs
of Harley-Davidson motorcycles occurring in the City of St. Paul environs, and 2) Locating and
identifying sources of motorcycle parts that have been obtained from the theft of motorcycles.
Under past MATPP grant funding initiatives we were successful in identifying, and in several
cases referring for crizninal charges, suspects believed to be involved in some aspect of the
Hazley-Davidson motorcycle theft problem experienced in Saint Paul. In addition, we have
successfully recovered a few of the stolen motorcycles, or their parts, which in the past has
proven difficult to do.
Saint Paul Police requests FY 2001 grant monies to continue to fund our long-term investigative
strategy which entails the use of confldential and electronic intelligence/evidence sources,
surveillance, analysis, and the use of a leased decoy motorcycle. As was documented in the
summary included with the initial submission, the leased decoy motorcycle was successfully
deployed based on an analysis of theft trends in the downtown azeas of the city.
Form AT:O1 4 MATPB
(Attachment C)

pc -�3R
We did experience a problem in replicating the deployment of the leased motorcycle again during
the summer of 1999 a$er its initial successful use due to a need to tighten up the contractual
relationship with the vendor in lieu of City of St. Paul rules, but that problem has been rectified
with a new contract negotiated between the City and the vendor. As a result we will be makin�
addiuonal deployments through the remainder of FY 2000 and into the FY 2001 grant period.
The second strategy we requested funding for was to continue the assignment of officers to
record throu�h the use of photographs and other documentation engine and component numbers
on Hazley-Davidson motorcycles legally encountered either throu�h uaffic stops or voluntary
contacts at festivals and other events in the City. The engine and component numbers would
have been documented in order to track and analyze the history of the motorcycles and(or
component parts in partnership with the Minnesota State Patrol, Minnesota Departrnent of Motor
Vehicles, and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, as we11 as to locate stolen parts. Based on
feedback from the Board we no longer are requesting funding for this strategy.
The Saint Paul Police also plan to continue providing formal and informal training with Team
investigators and patrol officers to assist in the above strategies, although funding for this is not
being sought.
The funding request for FY 2001 meets MATPP priorities for pro-active, long-term, effective
efforts, and crime analysis. The grant monies would be used to fund payments to informants, to
lease the decoy motorcycle, and to fund overtime for personnel dedicated solely to project
initiatives.
