The Police Department is responsible for safeguarding lives and property, the preservation of constitutional rights, and the maintenance of quality of life in order to promote safe and secure neighborhoods for our citizens. The three major divisions that carry out these core functions are Field Services, Special Services and Technical Services. The Department is a full-serve police organization that responds to a wide-range of calls for service, and provides a number of community support and outreach programs to promote police/community partnerships. The backbone of the Police Department is its patrol force, whose primary function is to provide a rapid response to emergency and non-emergency calls for service, reporting and documentation of crimes and unusual incidents, arrests of suspects, resolution of disputes, and the patrol of our residential and business communities.

Tell us what you think about budget priorities within the Police Department's programs and services. Specifically about budget priorities in the following areas:

  1. Additional K-9 Team
  2. Body-Mounted Video Systems for Patrol Officers
  3. Community Outreach
  4. Computer Crimes Investigations
  5. Fiduciary Elder Abuse Outreach / Physical Elder Abuse
  6. Mental Health Mobile Support Team (MST Training)
  7. Sexual Assault Examinations

If Community Outreach = Community Policing, then we definitely need that program in our city and it should be a top priority. Cameras along the Prince Memorial Greenway in the areas that are continually tagged so the serial taggers can be caught and bicycle cops regularly on the PMG trails are key to taking that area back for the downtown residents.MST Training to address the number of mentally ill on our streets is also important.
