Council Report – October 2013

Administration – Chief Yamashita

Things are going well.  We have integrated the Estacada contract into our work and so far so good.  The feed back from citizens of both cities, the school district and city staff have all been positive.  Officer’s Craven and Wetherbee are doing an outstanding job.  We have had to send a Sandy on-duty officer to a few calls over the last two months, and are working on moving things around in the schedule to ensure the best possible coverage.

We hired a new officer, Jeff Argubright.  He will attend the Council meeting on 11-04-13 for his swearing in by the Mayor.  Jeff worked for the Clackamas County SO and has already been to the police academy.  He lives in Happy Valley and is a long time Oregon resident.

Diane Reed and Chief Yamashita went down town to the Portland Police Beurau’s HQ.  We met with a group of folks to discuss “RegJIN” which is an up and coming Records Management Software being contemplated for use by the two state, multi-county region.  We will continue to monitor their progress and stay in the loop.  If we opt to use this new software, it wouldn’t take effect until 2015, allowing us to get plenty of use out of our current software.  Some of the upsides of this new software include a dispatch integration that allows dispatchers to take the call and then that information is used to auto-populate the reports.  Saving time and data entry. Another big plus is the number of agencies that have shown interest; they include, PPB, Vancouver PD, all of Clark County and most of Multnomah, Washington and Clackamas County (minus the Sheriffs Office so far).

All of the SPD Records Staff and Court Staff (Heidi) traveled to Estacada for a lunch with the administrative city hall staff.  We were able to meet, put faces to names and exchange some ideas.
