Friedman’s Home Improvement + Walmart Polynesia celebrated at annual RP Public Safety Pacific Islander Festival report card good needs improvement By Katherine Minkiewicz Rohnert Park City Manager, Darrin Jenkins, met Tuesday evening with Rohnert Park City Council members to review an impartial analysis report from the Center for Public Safety Management. De- spite the report’s findings that the RP Department of Public Safety provides “Exceptional quality law enforcement,” it does mention several points that the department needs to improve upon, most no- tably, officer recruitment and chain of command, which council members agreed to address over time. CPSM, which has conducted over 150 studies of public safety op- erations throughout the United States, found a few key takeaways based on several study areas such as department staffing, response times and workload, operational effectiveness and organizational structure effectiveness. According to the report, the main findings of the analysis state that Rohnert Park has a relatively low crime rate compared to other Sonoma County cities and a fairly high investigation clearance rate. In other words, the rate at which violent crimes like rape, robbery and assault, are solved is high and exceeds the state and national av- erage for solving crimes (the national average for crime clearance for rape in 2016 was only 36.5 percent and 53.3 percent for assault). In addition, they found, “Rohnert Park has a relatively low fire incidence and low fire loss rates and is an ideal candidate for the po- lice and fire public safety model.” The group also reported that overall, officers were very dedicated and professional and enjoyed the sense of family within the close- knit department. However, the report also recommended the city to consider a number of changes.

from page 1 take‘Search’ it into account,” Gylfe said, who also mentioned she was in- terested in hearing what other people have to say. Peterson’s next question touched on what the public would want the director to bring to the public safety department and the major response was to rebuild trust within the community. • Auto (All makes and models) One resident also mentioned that he would like stronger police presence in shopping centers due to recent car break-ins and store • Commercial vehicle robberies, like the one that occurred at A&L Market on E.

(707) 665-9100 Another factor he wants the new director to bring to the job is confidence. “I think, as a military member, you have to have confidence in the people and if you don’t have that, you are going to have a diffi- cult time, so I think that is the one thing I would like to see,” Pearson said. One of the more talked about questions was, “What should the top priority for the next leader of the department of public safety be?” And again, the overwhelming answer was visibility within the community; however, others suggested the number one priority should be to raise department morale and update their policies. With all of this in mind, the next step for the city will be to create a recruiting campaign and also gather input from city officials on what they want to see for the city. In the meantime, Interim Director of Public Safety, Jeffrey D. Weaver, former chief of police for the City of Sebastopol, will fill in the role of director until a permanent director is selected.
