Sheriffs’ Office Request for Comment on Proposed Business Plan:

§

The FCUAC received a request for comment on the latest Business Plan from the Sheriff’s Department. Edie J. lead the discussion. The Sheriff’s Office graciously extending the deadline 10 days so we could have a chance to meet and discuss before commenting.

 

The following comments were identified:

1. Expectations for type and timeliness of service varies among the 4 creeks coverage areas varies
2. Because of the distances in the rural portion of 4 creeks, per capita measures may not be the best measure of service coverage. 
3.  Annexation activity is happening at a fast pace for some of our coverage area. 
4.  Definitions and clarification of certain terms would be helpful for a new reader of the business plan.  
6. Tracking and reporting of costs would appear to be improved since the BATF report.
7. Community Policing and listening to the community about its priorities was supported by our members as an approach. 
8.  Consider options for efficient and effective ways to accomplish policing goals for the varied unincorporated areas.
