Dear Reader:

In 1995, the Police Bureau completed its sixth year of community policing and its second year of the 1994- 96 Strategic Plan. The plan, adopted in 1994, is tied to our city’s two-year budget cycle. In addition, the Bureau acknowledged its 125th anniversary.

As our history unfolds, it has become apparent that community policing has become interwoven in all aspects of the Police Bureau. In 1995, the Police Bureau hosted a national community policing conference: Community Policing: Making a Difference on the Street. This theme carried over to our work as we created several changes as well as new programs that reflect our commitment to community policing.

In order to align ourselves more closely with the community and its various neighborhoods, the Police Bureau redistricted its patrol districts and restructured boundaries of its five precincts. In addition, the Bureau implemented a new radio system and new Mobile Data Terminals to respond to the needs of citizens and promote officer safety. All of these improvements strengthen our ability to work at solving problems and reducing chronic situations.

One chronic situation that was threatening the livability of our citizens was auto theft. In 1995, the Police Bureau, under the direction of Mayor Vera Katz, studied this problem and created a multi-agency interdisciplinary task force to reduce auto theft. The work of this task force has resulted in an increase in arrests, an increase in recovery of stolen vehicles and a decrease in reported auto thefts for the first time in several years.

One of the most critical elements of police work remains responding to crises. The Police Bureau developed the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT), patterned after the Memphis model, to better deal with crisis response situations. CIT members are trained officers who assist in defusing situations where a person with mental illness is involved in a crisis that warrants police response. In addition, Crisis Response Teams were also formed. This volunteer group of community members respond to critical incidents and assist the police and victims’ families.

These are just a few of the programs and changes that were implemented in 1995, as our commitment to community policing continues to grow and strengthen each year.
