DESCRIPTION: The Altamont Cruisers is an ll-year-old organization composed of classic car
devotees. The group is based in Livermore, but is composed of members from the entire Tri-Valley area.
The group periodically holds car shows and other social events at various Tri- Valley locations. The
purpose of these events is to display classic cars and to generate revenues, through fees and donations, for
local charitable organizations and city-sponsored drug abuse resistance programs.
On September 27, 1998, the Altamont Cruisers held a car show with over 400 entries and raised $10,500
that will be donated to nine local charities. The group has offered to donate $1,000 of the proceeds to the
City of Dublin, provided that the funds are once again used to enhance or expand the City's drug abuse
resistance programs.
Dublin Police Services currently participates in the nationally sponsored Red Ribbon Week and operates
an aggressive and proactive drug abuse resistance program throughout the year. The programs are
primarily directed towards Dublin's primary and high schools. In addition to discouraging the use of
illicit drugs, the programs also strive to alert children to the potential consequences of drug abuse. The
City Council has routinely supported efforts to educate the public as to the consequences of drug use. The
expenditure direction recommended by the Altamont Cruisers is entirely consistent with the City's current
objectives and past practices.
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the gift, approve the budget adjustment, direct staff to
formally acknowledge the donor, and direct Police Services staff to use the funds to purchase Red Ribbon
Week educational material related to substance abuse.
