REVISION TO PROCEDURE 12.010, ROLL CALL AND PERSONNEL INSPECTION Procedure 12.010, Roll Call and Personnel Inspection has been revised. The Department began the transition to the Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0 pistol beginning in June, 2019. The M&P 2.0 is not equipped with a magazine safety disconnect, which will adversely affect the safety of Department members during the current iteration of roll call. A review of best practices, with the intent of keeping the safety of Department members and citizens the top priority, has resulted in the following changes to the conduction of roll calls: • Removed the command “Raise Pistols.” o Officers will continue to remove the magazine from the firearm, as well as the extra magazines from the magazine pouch, to be inspected.
