Police Staffing Study 3. Fire Staffing Study 4. Adj ourn DATE: April 14, 2006 TO: Mayor and City Council Members THROUGH: Laurie Ahrens, City Manager FROM: Michael S. Goldstein, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Police Department Staffing Study Attached you will find a copy of the Police Department's Staffing Study for your review prior to the City Council Study Session on Tuesday, April 18, 2006. The study is formatted in a PowerPoint presentation. The Staffing Study is comprised of several elements: its purpose; the methodology used to develop the study; the various indices or considerations used to measure staffing requirements/preferences; discussion points; potential funding streams other than the General Fund; associated costs; and a generic staffing proposal. While many of the slides are self-explanatory, some are not and require interpretation, which will be offered as part of the presentation. It is important to note, that in preparing this study, numerous indices were taken into consideration. In order to complete a comprehensive review of our current operations and to ganger a better understanding of our future, several ancillary functions were also studied e.g. overtime usage, current and available technology, budgetary considerations, etc. While some of the ancillary functions raised certain questions that are currently being addressed, or will be fin-ther reviewed in the future; the primary focus of the study remains: staffing levels for today and tomorrow. More importantly, one of the desired outcomes is to determine the level of service the City wants to afford the community i.e. proactive versus reactive models, which both offer certain strengths and wealmesses and will influence our staffing patterns. The good news is that the current staffing levels appear to be adequate based on several indicators. However, as the City continues to grow and other dynamics continue to influence the Department's call load, additional staffing might be inevitable. Through the applied methodologies that were used in this study and with thoughtful consideration, this potential inevitability can be carefully managed and appropriately controlled to provide adequate staffing through prudent fiscal measures and other efficiencies.
