    The City of Beachwood, Ohio Police Department

    The City of Beachwood, Ohio Police Department ANNUAL REPORT 2010 INTRODUCTION The following material documents the activities of the Beachwood Police Department for the year 2010. The successful operation of the police department is possible because of the support of Mayor Merle S. Gorden, the members of the Beachwood City Council, the other departments and employees of the City of Beachwood, and all our citizens both residential and commercial. I am pleased to report that we made great progress towards accomplishing the goals we identified in our most recent strategic plan. Commander Patrick Sullivan and Detective Michael Nelson have retired; their contributions to the department have been great. The year 2011 will see more retirements and we are well underway with the process of identifying quality candidates to fill their shoes. We recognize the quality of our entry level officers has an affect on the organization that will impact operations for decades; therefore our process for evaluation of the potential officers is thorough. Fortunately the number of candidates completing the testing process was ample and we are optimistic we will find quality individuals who are up to our standards. Our status as an accredited law enforcement agency by the CALEA, Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, was up for renewal in 2010. I am very proud to report that we passed all phases of the assessment as well as the subsequent commission review. July 31, 2010 we were awarded reaccreditation status and that award will be valid until 2013. The entire accreditation report is available for review on our web page.

January-June 2014 @AMATS Volume 3, Issue 1 Something to think about on your walk - Pedestrian Crashes There were a few surprises in a new first-of-its-kind pedestrian analysis released by AMATS in late March. The three-year report spans 2010 through 2012 and is a comprehensive look by the agency at crashes involving pedestrians in the Greater Akron area. As the area’s transportation planning agency, AMATS regularly prepares vehicle crash reports - but with increased public interest in alternative forms of transportation such as walking - agency officials felt that the time was right to take a close look at pedestrian-related crashes. Among the key findings of the analysis are: • Akron tops the list of communities with the most pedestrian-related crashes with Kent coming in second. • There were 14 fatalities from pedestrian-related crashes between 2010 and 2012. • Pedestrian-related crashes account for less than 1 percent of all area crashes, but account for over 10 percent of fatalities. • Eighty-six percent of pedestrian-related crashes result in an injury to the pedestrian with 31 percent of those resulting in an incapacitating injury.

  • 3C+D Corridor

    3C+D Corridor

    3C+D Corridor Amtrak’s vision to connect communities across Ohio Amtrak's Vision Frequency Initial Trip Time Host Railroads Annual Economic Impact 3 daily round trips 5:30 CSX, NS $129.6 million AmtrakConnectsUS.com 1 3C+D Corridor Corridor Growth Despite being less than 250 miles apart, the last time Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati were connected directly by rail was in 1967. The three cities, commonly referred to as the “Three C’s," are the largest in the state of Ohio. Columbus’ metropolitan area is home to over two million residents, making it the second-largest metropolitan area in the country without Amtrak service. According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, since 2000, Columbus has added over 200,000 jobs to its economy, and Cincinnati has added over 100,000 jobs in the same time period. Amtrak’s vision would turn both Cincinnati and Cleveland into new hubs for Amtrak service. In addition to the existing Long Distance trains that operate through Ohio – the Capitol Limited, Cardinal, and Lake Shore Limited – the following improved services are included in Amtrak’s vision: • Cincinnati - Chicago: +4 daily roundtrips • Cleveland - Detroit: +3 daily roundtrips • Cleveland - New York City: +2 daily roundtrips These new rail connections would improve mobility for underserved communities and provide reliable and efficient transportation to education and employment opportunities along the route. Connections would be available to Cleveland’s RTA Light Rail System, Columbus’ COTA system, and Cincinnati’s Metro system. The proposed route would serve dozens of colleges and universities and connect 18 Fortune 500 companies.
