NOW, WE MOVE RIGHT ONTO THE OTHER BUSINESS. TODAY , WE ARE VERY HAPPY TO WELCOME CHIEF YOUNG[Additional Item]
POLICE CHIEF . HE'S GOING TO GIVE US A PRESENTATION OF THESECURITY IN THE PARK. >> MADAM CHAIR, BEFORE CHIEF YOUNG COMES TO THE PODIUM, I DO HAVE A COUPLE MORE ANNOUNCEMENTS . VERY BRIEFLY, THIS WEEKEND, MARCH 16TH IS THE KICKOFF OF OUR LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL AND FAST PITCH SOFTBALL . THE LAST OF TEAMS HAVE REGISTERED. ALSO, SPLASH PAD AND AIRLINES AND ALSO THE COMMUNITY CENTER WILL BE OPEN BY THE END OF THIS MONTH. SPLASH PAD AT A FULLY TRACY IS UNDER RENOVATION.
THE HOLDING TANK IS BEING REPAIRED AND SHOULD BE COMPLETED THIS SUMMER OPENING. AND ALSO, I DO WANT TO SAY THAT THE RESIDENCE CANNOT ATTEND THE DUCK POND RIVER CUTTING CAN WATCH IT ON FACEBOOK OR THEY CAN TUNE IN TO THE CITY'S TELEVISION CHANNEL 15. SO, THE GOVERNMENT , CHANNEL 15 THEY CAN WATCH THE DUCK POND RIBBON-CUTTING SCHEDULED AT 10:00 . ALSO, I WOULD LIKE TO ASK STEVE GALLAGHER, OUR PARK SUPERINTENDENT TO GIVE US A QUICK DATE ON THE RESULTS OF THE WINTER GAMES, WHICH WAS HELD BACK IN FEBRUARY, 24TH AND 25TH . STEVE, CAN YOU GIVE AN
UPDATE? >> GOOD EVENING, COMMISSIONERS.
WE HAVE THE THREE EVENTS FROM THE 24TH TO 25TH HERE. THE FIRST ONE, WAS GOLF. WE HAD 32 PARTICIPANTS. ALL OF THEM WERE LOCAL PARTICIPANTS. FLAK FOOTBALL, WE HAD 20 TEAMS. THOSE 20 TEAMS PLAYED EIGHT ON EIGHT FOOTBALL AND THEN DIVIDED INTO FIVE ON FIVE FOOTBALL. THOSE 20 TEAMS ALL DID STAY FROM OUT OF TOWN. THAT WAS A GOOD NUMBER. WE FIGURED ABOUT 100 ROOM NIGHTS FOR THAT. THAT THEY CAME IN FOR. IN OUR YOUTH FAST PITCH TOURNAMENT, WE HAD 40 OF THE TEAMS THAT SHOWED UP FOR THAT. 32 OF THEM CAME FROM OUT OF TOWN. SO IF YOU THINK ABOUT THAT WITH THE NUMBERS , ONE TO THREE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT WITH FAMILY MEMBERS , SO REALLY GOOD AND REALLY NICE FOR THAT. OF COURSE, WE ALSO HAVE THE DISK OFF OF AND THAT WAS -- THEY HAD 298 PLAYERS. WE WERE FULL ON TOUGHER HOTELS FOR ALL THOSE EVENT . IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND FOR SPORTS, GREAT WEATHER, A LOT OF GREAT COMPLIMENTS AND THE MAINTENANCE TEAM DID A GREAT JOB. I WAS WANT TO SHUT UP TO THE PARKS MAINTENANCE TEAM FOR PREPPING ALL THE FIELDS AND THE PARKS THEY HAD TO DO TO GET IT READY FOR THE VISITORS. IT WAS A
[D.1. Presentation of Security in Parks by Police Chief.]
WONDERFUL TURNOUT. IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S JUST GETTING BETTER>> THAT'S GREAT. THANK YOU. >> BACK TO CHIEF YOUNG. AT OUR
LAST MEETING , CAN YOU HEAR ME? >> I CANNOT HEAR YOU TOO WELL.
MAYBE IT'S JUST ME. PLEASE GO AHEAD.
>> MADAM CHAIR, OUR LAST MEETING, YOU ASK FOR A QUICK UPDATE ON SECURITY ON THE LEVEL OF CRIME IN OUR PARKS. AS YOU KNOW, WE HAD 17 PARKS IN OUR SYSTEM. SO TODAY, I'VE ASKED POLICE CHIEF , CHUCK YOUNG TO COME IN AND GIVE US A
[00:05:01]
DATE , OR A REPORT ON CRIMES THAT IS IN OUR PARKS. CHIEF YOUNG? AARON GERRISH IS OUR CRIME ANALYST. AARON PUT THIS TOGETHER . OF THE , I BELIEVE, 17 PARKS THAT ARE IN THE SYSTEM. WHAT I ASKED GOMPERS TO DO WAS PULL UP THE DATA WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE ACTUAL PARK LINES. THAT GIVES US PRETTY MUCH AN OVERVIEW OF THE CRIME AND AREA. IF YOU SEE, ON THE CHART, I KNOW IT'S KIND OF SMALL, BUT YOU CAN SEE ON HERE, I WAS GOING TO PRINT IT OUT, BUT I FIGURED YOU WOULD HAVE IT IN FRONT OF YOU. ALL CRIMES, I'VE COMPARED 23 TO 22. YOU WILL SEE THE DRUG CHARGES IN '22 WERE 51 AND ALL THE OTHER CHARGES ARE IN THE YELLOW AND TO THE LEFT IS DECLAMATION OF WHAT ALL THE YELLOW IS, PUBLIC INTOXICATION , POSSESSION OF TOBACCO, OTHER THINGS LIKE THAT. SO, IF YOU LOOK AT -- WE HAD AN ACTUAL DECREASE IN '23 C COMPARED TO '22. ABOUT 33 DIFFERENT OFFENSES. IF YOU LOOK ON THE RIGHT, THERE ARE WHAT WE CALL PART ONE CRIMES, THE MURDER RATE, PROBABLY AGGRAVATED ASSAULT , THOSE ARE THE CRIMES AGAINST THE PERSON, AND THEN YOU HAVE CRIMES AGAINST PROPERTY, WHICH ARE THEFT, BURGLARY, BURGLARY FALLS UNDER THAT, AND AUTO THEFT. SO, MAJORITY OF THE CRIMES YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU ARE IN THE PART TWO CATEGORY. BURGLARY IS ON THERE. 2022, YOU HAD NINE, AND BURGLARY, YOU HAD 16.THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF AN TAKE. REMEMBER WE ARE GOING TO ATROPHY OUT OF THE PARK. I CAN BE FOR RESIDENTS THAT ARE AT AND AROUND THE PARK . I WANTED TO USE THAT TO CAPTURE IS NOT GOING TO BE JUST WITHIN THE PART OF ALL THE EVENTS, IT'S GOING TO BE IN THE CURTILAGE AROUND IT. SO, I WILL GO THROUGH THIS. I GUESS WE'LL GO BACK , AND IF WE HAVE QUESTIONS, IS THERE SOMETHING WE NEED TO HIGHLIGHT, PLEASE.
ALL OF THE OTHER CHARGES, I CAN IS 73 IS OFFENSES COLLEGE MAKES UP 37%. SO, THERE'S NOT ANYTHING THAT'S SUPERLARGE.
THE SMALLER CATEGORIES ARE YOUR 26% OR 51 OF THAT 200 . SO, AS YOU CAN SEE THERE, I ASKED HER TO PULL UP THE TOP FIVE PARKS WITH THE MOST CRIME SO WE CAN SEE THE VICTORIA COMMUNITY CENTER , JUST THAT STRUCTURE, THAT BUILDING RIGHT THERE REPRESENTS 17.5% OF THE TOTAL CRIME IN '22 , '23. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE '22 , '23 COMPARISON, IT'S KIND OF GONE DOWN A LITTLE BIT. ON THE BOTTOM PART.
SO YOU HAVE A GRAND TOTAL OF 70, 76 ON THE TOP ONE, RIVERSIDE AND 72 OFFENSE IS. SO YOU DISSECT THE 62 OFFENSES ON THE BOTTOM CHART RIVERSIDE SHOWS 42 IN 2022 AND 20 IN 2023 WITH THE REDUCTION OF ABOUT 50%. WILL ROGERS PARK, THAT SEEMS LIKE THAT'S THE ONE TO FOCUS ON. WE HAD A TOTAL OF 26 OF THE MOST CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. SOMETHING THAT CAN BE THE CURFEW VIOLATIONS, I CAN BE SOME OF THAT PART TWO CRIME.
ANYTHING THAT'S NOT PART ONE, MURDER RATE, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT , BURGLARY THEFT AND AUTO THEFT IS ALL OF YOUR PART ONE CRIMES . SO, WILL ROGERS, WE WILL HAVE A BREAK DOWN OF THAT CRIME COMING UP . SO, LET'S TAKE JUST THE COMMUNITY CENTER AS ONE OF THE FIVE. THIS IS NUMBER ONE OF FIVE. DRUG CHARGES HAVE DECREASED BY 50% . ALL OTHER OFFENSES HAVE INCREASED, SEVEN TO 14. AS YOU SEE ON THE BOTTOM, ALL OF THE OTHERS ARE PIS, THERE'S FOUR. A MEETING, THERE'S THREE. APPREHENSION, ET CETERA. SO, IT'S A LOT OF NUMBERS, DURING A LOT OF NUMBERS AT YOU. BUT I GUESS THE OVERALL OF THIS IS , FOCUSING ON THE PARKS COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE CITY, NOT THAT THERE'S CRIME IN THE PARKS, BUT THE PARKS ARE RELATIVELY SAFE. WE HAD A REDUCTION IN FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR.
SO, STATISTICALLY, THE CRIMES ARE GOING DOWN. RIVERSIDE PARK . WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CALLS, I WILL GET TO CALLS IN JUST A
[00:10:02]
SECOND. BUT WE ARE ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT CRIME RIGHT NOW.AGAIN, HERE'S RIVERSIDE, DOWN FOR, ALL OF THE OFFENSES JUST A LITTLE BIT, SEVEN TO EIGHT, THAT'S ARE DOWN, DWI, THOSE ARE ARRESTS MADE WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE CURTILAGE . SEXUAL ASSAULT AT THE PARK . YES MA'AM?
>> WHEN YOU SAY CALLS VERSUS CRIME, REALLY QUICK, CARNES IS SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN A CHARGEABLE OFFENSE BY PD VERSUS
THE CALL? >> SURE, YOU CAN MAKE A CALL OF A CAR BURGLARY. AND IF WE ARREST SOMEBODY, THAT WILL SHOW UP ON THE ARRESTS. THESE ARE REST FOR NOW.
>> WHEN YOU SAY CHARGES, YOU MEAN ARRESTS?
>> YES. LET'S GO STRAIGHT TO CALLS. WE WILL GO BACK IN A LITTLE BIT. WE WILL GO STRAIGHT TO CALLS. CALLS IN THE PARKS.
WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO SEE IS A HUGE NUMBER IN 2022. COMPARE THE 569 FREQUENT CONTROLS COMPARED TO 70 . WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS CAUGHT IN 2022, THE FOCUS WAS REALLY ON THE PARKS.
AND I ASKED HER, I ASKED THE ANALYST TO PULL THE DATA. ARE THESE NUMBERS RIGHT, BECAUSE THEY LOOK AWFUL HI. AND THERE WAS A PUSH AND EMPHASIS ON THE PART TWO SPEND A LOT OF TIME PHYSICALLY IN THE PARKS IN 2022. SO, AND LOOKING AT THAT , LOOK AT THE NUMBERS, FREQUENT PATROL, 569. EVERY TIME, THAT ALMOST WAS LIKE A CALL. IT WAS THAT IT WOULD JUST RANDOMLY DROP, OR WOULD COME TO THE DISPATCHED Q TO HAVE A SQUAD TO GO TO THE PARK, DRIVE THROUGH THE PARK . IT WAS A MANDATORY THING INSTEAD OF THE OFFICES ON ROUTINE PATROL. SO WE DON'T CAPTURE IT ON THE RIGHT, WE CAPTURED IT ON THE LEFT AS FAR AS HAVING TO GO TO THE PARK, HAVING TO GO TO SPECIFIC LOCATION AND PHYSICALLY MARKING OUT THERE. 2023, BECAUSE OF OUR STAFFING, WE'VE EXPANDED THAT LITTLE BIT. NOT SO MANY FREQUENT AT THE PART, WE ARE STILL THERE. SO WE ARE STILL AT THE PARKS. DON'T CONFUSE THAT FOR US NOT BEING AT THE PARK. WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED BY A CALL TO GO TO THE PARK . IF YOU WILL CALL AND HE WOULD SAY THAT YOUR CAR WAS BROKEN INTO OR SOMETHING, OR YOU CAN'T FIND THE PUPPY DOG RAN OFF AND YOU CANNOT FIND THE DOG, WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE, WELFARE CONCERN. THERE WAS SIX IN 2023, WELFARE CONCERN ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE . I DON'T THINK I SEE IT AT ALL. WELFARE CONCERN, THE FIVE OF THEM. SO, CALLS WERE STILL GOING. DOES IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHAT PEOPLE CALL? WE ARE STILL GOING TO RESPOND TO THAT. BUT THE FREQUENT PATROL AND TRAFFIC STOPS. AS YOU SEE TRAFFIC STOPS, 22 TO 193. I ASKED HER ABOUT THAT AND SAID WHY . IT WAS A DIRECTED FOCUS INSIDE THE PARKS WHEREAS IN 2023, WE DID NOT HAVE THE
DIRECTIVE FOCUS. >> YOU MEAN 2022?
>> 2022, WE LIVED THERE. AND IN '23, NOT SO MUCH. WE WERE STILL AT WORK, BUT THAT'S ABOUT THE TIME THAT WE WERE , TO BE HONEST, OUR STAFFING ISSUES WERE, AND STILL ARE QUITE A SITUATION. WE WERE DOING FREQUENT CONTROLS AT THE CAR BURGLARIES, FOR EXAMPLE. CAR BURGLARIES AT THE HOTELS. SOME OF THE HOTELS WERE BEING VICTIMIZED BY CAR BURGLARIES.
WE HAD FRUGAL PATROLS WHERE WE WOULD ACTUALLY GO SPEND ADDITIONAL TIME AT THE CAR BURGLARY -- WHERE'S THE OFFENSE HAPPENING? THAT'S WHERE WE WOULD NEED TO BE. THAT'S WHY WE WILL GO TO THE -- NOT THE APARTMENTS, BUT THE HOTELS JUST TO -- THAT WAS FROM CATALYTIC CONVERTERS REALLY GOING ON. THAT WAS A CAR BURGLARY. THAT COUNTS AS A CAR BURGLARY. SO WE HEADED PROBLEM WITH THAT HAPPENING. COPS ON THE DOCKS BASICALLY. NOW, WITH LEGISLATURE AND CITY ORDINANCES AND THINGS LIKE THAT, CATALYTIC CONVERTERS ARE -- I DON'T WANT TO SAY IT'S TOO LOUD, BUT CATALYTIC CONVERTERS ARE NOT FREQUENT AS THEY USED TO BE, WE WILL GO WITH THAT. SO, LET'S SEE. ALL OF THE CALLS, FREQUENT PATROL, IF YOU LOOK, THAT'S 100 -- TRAFFIC STOPS WAS 43%. WE WERE DOING A LOT OF TRAFFIC AND BY THE PARKS. SO, STATISTICAL BREAKDOWN OF THE CRIME , WE HAVE HOURS WHERE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO NOT MAKE ANYONE SUPPOSED TO BE NOT IN THE PARK FROM 11 TO 6 A.M.. THAT'S WHEN THE PARKS ARE CLOSED. BUT YOU ARE STILL HAVING CRIME THAT IS OCCURRING . SOME OF THAT COULD BE -- AGAIN, WHEN WE GET TO ALL CRIME, IT'S ALL CRIME.
[00:15:01]
IT'S A TICKET, IT'S POSSESSION OF TOBACCO, IT'S SEXUAL ASSAULTS, IT'S A MURDER, IT'S WHATEVER IT WOULD BE IS ALL CRIME . ALL CRIME IN THAT CATEGORY. SO YOU SEE, THOSE TOP COLUMNS ON THE RIGHT, YOU SEE THOSE HOURS THAT ARE BLACKED OUT OR GREENED OUT, THOSE ARE THE TIMES NO ONE SUPPOSED TO BE THERE. I KNOW AGAIN, THIS IS A LOT OF NUMBERS. AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF NUMBERS, THAT'S WHAT ERIN DOES.SHE'S OUR NUMBERS LADY. LET'S SEE. I COULD SEE BY THE MONTH.
AND THEN THAT GETS YOU ALL CRIME BY THE TIME PERIOD OF THE 24 HOUR CLOCK. IF YOU LOOK AT 10:00, THAT WAS LAST YEAR , 30 PARTICULAR ALL CRIMES COMPARED TO SIX THIS YEAR.
ONE THING TO NOTE IS YOU HAVE THE '21, '22, '23 AND MIDNIGHT. IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF AN INCREASE IN THAT IN ALL CRIME , '16, '17. I WANT TO SAY THAT'S 13 AND 30. BUT THE PARK IS SUPPOSED TO BE CLOSE THEN. SO, I DON'T KNOW. AND THIS IS ALL CRIME, ALL PARKS.
I WOULD BE HERE, YOU FOLKS WOULD BE HERE FOR THE NEXT WEEK IF YOU WANTED TO DISSECT EACH ONE OF THOSE DIFFERENT PARKS.
I KNOW THIS IS JUST -- I KNOW WE ARE AT THE END THERE. IF YOU WANT, LET'S GO BACK TO RIVERSIDE. ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT? I KNOW YOU PROBABLY HAVE 1 TRILLION OF THEM . BUT THEY ARE NUMBERS, THEY ARE BROKEN DOWN. WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN '22 VERSUS '23 ? STATISTICALLY, RIGHT THERE WE DID. TRAFFIC STOPS , 22 TRAFFIC STOPS. NUMBER ONE HANGUP 20 IN THE PARK. INVESTIGATIONS 15. MENTAL HEALTH EMERGENCIES, 14.
BURGLAR ALARM. THAT CAN BE AN AUDIBLE BURGLAR ARM. REMEMBER THIS IS ALL PARKS , 200 FEET. IF A HOUSE BURGLAR ALARM GOES OFF NEAR QUEEN CITY PARK, FOR EXAMPLE, THAT'S GOING TO TAKE
UP ON THEIR. >> MADAM CHAIR, IF YOU RECALL WE WERE GOING THROUGH THE PARKS MASTERPLAN IN '21 , ONE OF THE THINGS WE HEARD FROM THE RESIDENT TO PURCHASE DATED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PARKS MASTERPLAN WAS BETTER SECURITY IN THE PARKS. SO, BECAUSE OF THAT IN 2022, WE WERE VERY AGGRESSIVE IN RESPONDING TO THAT REQUEST. SO, IN 2022, AS YOU CAN SEE, WE WERE VERY ENGAGED AND WORKING WITH THE POLICE TO DO MORE PATROLS . AS YOU CAN SEE, THE NUMBERS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY DOWN, BECAUSE WE REALLY EMPHASIZE SAFETY WHEN IT COMES TO OUR PARKS. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR RESIDENTS WHO USE THE PARKS ARE SAFE AND THEY CAN REALLY ENJOY OUR PARKS WITHOUT WORRY. SO, I WANT TO THANK THE CHIEF REALLY DEDICATING POLICE OFFICERS , DRIVING TO THE PARKS . WE ALSO HAD OUR STAFF, WHO ALSO DRIVE THROUGH THE PARKS. SO, EVERY DAY WE HAVE A PARKS STAFF AND ONE OF OUR VEHICLES DRIVING THROUGH EACH PARK , EACH OF THE 17 PARKS. AGAIN, BECAUSE SAFETY IS THE NUMBER ONE PRIORITY FOR US , FOR OUR RESIDENTS WHO USE THE PARK. SO, THANK YOU, CHIEF. BECAUSE THE NUMBERS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY THERE.
>> IF YOU LOOK AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER, WE ARE DOWN 27%. THIS IS EVERYTHING FROM 44 TO 32. YOU GO TO THE NEXT ON RIVERSIDE DOWN 52% FROM 42 TO 20. GO DOWN ONE MORE , 17 TO 17 AT QUEEN CITY PARK WITH THE MAJOR NUMBER UP THERE BEING THE DRUG CHARGES, SEVEN TO SEVEN . I DON'T KNOW BUT THE NUMBERS ARE CURRENTLY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE 2024, BUT I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO -- WHERE ONLY IN MARCH. AGAIN -- YES SIR?
>> I JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR. I THINK YOU BROUGHT THIS UP. I KNOW YOU BROUGHT IT UP. THESE ARE ACTUAL CALLS. THESE ARE DOCUMENTED, SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY . OBVIOUSLY, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW. SO, IF THE CITIZENS DON'T FEEL SAFE THERE, AND THERE OBVIOUSLY ELEVATED THIS , BUT NOT NECESSARILY
MAKING A CALL, CORRECT ? >> WE KNOW OF THE CALLS, WE CAN DOCUMENT THAT. SO, IF A PERSON CALLS IN, FOR A DISTURBANCE OR WHATEVER THAT GOES ON OR THE OFFICER DRIVES UP ON IT.
>> DID YOU MAKE THE CALL? >> THERE'S THE OFFICER ALREADY THERE. THEY WILL MARK OUT PROBABLY THEIR ROUTINE
[00:20:04]
MARKOUT WOULD BE AN INVESTIGATION TO TRY TO DETERMINE WHAT IT WAS. I DON'T KNOW THAT THEY ARE GOING TO ACTUALLY CHANGE IT TO A DISTURBANCE. THEY WOULD LEAVE IT AS THAT INVESTIGATION. SO, BEING ON THE PARK, WHILE WE DRIVE OVER POLICE CARS. HOPE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION.BUT IF SOMEONE CALLS, WE ARE GOING TO BE THERE, OR WE COULD GET FLAGGED DOWN. FLAG DOWNS CAN BE ON HERE, BUT MORE THAN LIKELY ON AN INVESTIGATION, THEY WILL TELL THE DISPATCHER WHERE THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY, IN CASE THEY NEED HELP OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. THAT WOULD JUST SIMPLY BE AN INVESTIGATION. IT BRINGS ME TO THIS. I THINK I CAN ANSWER THAT. LET ME GO BACK HERE TO THE CALLS, BECAUSE THE CALL ACTUALLY COUNTS AS AN INVESTIGATION ACTUALLY COUNTS AS A CALL. THERE'S YOUR CRIME . WE GOT TO GET TO THE CALLS. I GUESS WE WENT PAST IT.
THERE'S CRIME , CRIME >> I GUESS WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY, THERE'S NO WAY TO QUALIFY OR QUANTIFY THIS , IS FOR EVERYONE CALL, THERE MAY BE TWO NON-CALLS.
>> THAT'S TRUE. THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT. OR THEY HAPPEN TO SEE THE OFFICER AND THEY FLAG THE OFFICER DOWN.
AGAIN, THAT COULD COUNT AS A CALL. THE FREQUENT PATROLS, THERE 70 OF THE PATROLS AS COMPARED TO , THERE'S 500 DIFFERENT. THAT'S A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER PAY BUT WHAT I MEAN IS , IF YOU LOOK AT '22 AND '23 , THE AMOUNT OF -- THAT'S PROBABLY THE WRONG WORD, BUT THE AMOUNT OF ENERGY OR THE AMOUNT OF ALERTNESS , OR THE AMOUNT, WHATEVER THE AMOUNT WAS , AND YOU COMPARE THAT NUMBER , IT WAS NOT THAT DRASTIC OF A NUMBER ONE WE WANT AS DOCUMENT BEING MARKED OUT. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE ? THE FREQUENT PATROL. IN 2022, YOU HAVE 500 MORE THAN YOU HAVE IN 23. BUT WAS THERE THAT MUCH OF A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN THE CRIME IN '22 AND '23 ? IT'S GONE DOWN. IS IT BECAUSE PEOPLE SAW US THERE AND DECIDED TO NOT COMMIT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY ? OR WHETHER NUMBERS KIND OF A SELF-INFLICTED WHENEVER WE WRITE A CITATION OR WHATEVER IT WOULD BE. THE TRAFFIC STOPS WOULD NOT BE IF WE WERE NOT INITIATING THAT TRAFFIC STOP. SO, THAT NUMBER IS GOING TO OBVIOUSLY INCREASE COMPARED TO THE TRAFFIC STOPS OF '22, OF THE NUMBER '22 IN '23, SORRY. WHAT I'M SAYING IS WE WERE MORE PROACTIVE HERE , AND WE WERE LESS PROACTIVE, WE WERE
COVERING THE CITY. >> IF I MAY COMMENT , I THINK THIS IS ALSO IN YOUR DATA ANALYSIS THAT YOU HAVE HERE. IT SHOWS THE DIFFERENT VARIABLES THAT'S PROBABLY NOT SEEN BY THE PUBLIC OR ANYBODY AROUND. WITH YOUR POLICE DEPARTMENT AS THIN AS IT IS AND STRETCHED OUT AMONG THE CITY , I THINK YOU HAVE STRONG TRANSPARENCY HERE . IN '22, INITIALS FOR '23.
AND PEOPLE ARE KIND OF GETTING THE IDEA THAT THE POLICE, THEY MAY COME BY, WE DON'T KNOW WHATEVER. SO PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO LEARN ABOUT THIS AND ALSO CONDITIONED THEMSELVES THAT THERE IS SECURITY AROUND HERE.
>> ABSOLUTELY. >> ON THE CALLS, I UNDERSTAND THOSE THINGS. A LOT OF PEOPLE JUST GO THE CALLS OR WHATEVER BECAUSE THEY ARE UPSET WITH SOMEONE. IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU REALLY GOT THIS UNDER CONTROL. I THINK THE BIGGEST THING YOU HAVE IS THE PERFORM OF TRANSPARENCY WITHIN THE PARKS.
SO, I WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE YOU ON THAT.
>> THANK YOU . ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ?
>> I KNOW, AGAIN IT'S A LOT OF NUMBERS.
>> CAN YOU GO BACK TO THE SLIDE FOR RIVERSIDE?
>> THE WHOLE THING FOR RIVERSIDE . THERE IS YOUR ALL CRIME. WE ARE GETTING CLOSER.
I GUESS WE WENT THE WRONG WAY. HERE WE GO DOWN 40. 42. I'M SORRY. I COULD NOT SEE IT. 42 TO 20.
>> DOWN 52%. >> DRUG CHARGES WERE NOT THERE
[00:25:04]
AS OFTEN, PERHAPS , COMPARED . THAT'S WHY WE CAUGHT 16 AND WE ONLY CAUGHT FOUR AND 2023. ALL OTHERS THAT IS YOUR CURFEW, POSSESSION OF TOBACCO. THAT, DWIS ARE HYPERACTIVE THING. IF YOU LOOK AT A LOT OF THOSE, A LOT OF THOSE ARE THE PROACTIVE , ESPECIALLY THE TOP -- SEXUAL ASSAULTS, THE REPORTED AT THE PARK DOWN TO ZERO. SIMPLE ASSAULT, ONE. BUT THE NUMBERS ARE RELATIVELY SMALL. THAT'S WHY I ASKED ERIN TO JUST GIVE ME THE TOP FIVE, BECAUSE WE WOULD BE GOING THROUGH 17 SLIDES OF THE COMPARISON. I JUST SAID JUST GIVE ME THE TOP FIVE, BECAUSE THE NUMBERS AREVERY SMALL . >> HAVE YOU DONE THE STUDIES COMPARING TO OTHER COMMUNITIES ARE SIZE OF COMPARE CONTRAST? IT SOUNDS LIKE WHAT THEY'RE DOING WITH THE PARKS AND ALL OF THE GAMES AND EVERYTHING COMING INTO THE CITY, IT SOUNDS LIKE WE HAVE A PRETTY WELL SECURED AREA. AND PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO
COME IN TO OUR COMMUNITY. >> I THINK IT'S WONDERFUL TO
COMPARE -- >> ANOTHER POPULATION SIZE FOR
THE COMMUNITY? >> WE DID NOT DO THAT. WE DID NOT HAVE THAT AS A COMPARISON. PERSONALLY, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE, AND I CAN REPORT BACK , I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THE SPORTS COMPLEX , WHAT THE SPORTS COMPLEX -- OUR CAR BURGLARIES ARE DOWN. OUR AUTO THEFTS ARE DOWN, COMPARED TO, KNOCK ON WOOD, THANK YOU FOR THAT. I THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH PEOPLE, PLACES, BEHAVIORS. WE ARE TAKING, WE ARE GOING TO WHERE THE HOTSPOTS ARE . AND FOR RIGHT NOW, STATISTICALLY, IT SHOWS THAT THE PARKS ARE NOT THE HOTSPOTS. THEY CAN BECOME THAT OVERNIGHT , THEY COULD BECOME THAT TONIGHT, TOMORROW, NEXT WEEK. BEST TO SIX ARE SHOWING THAT THEY ARE RELATIVELY NOT AS BAD, COMPARED TO WHAT THEY WERE LAST YEAR.
WHAT WE ARE DOING WITH OUR RESOURCES, LIMITED RESOURCES WE HAVE, WE ARE PUTTING THOSE RESOURCES IN THE TARGETED HOTSPOTS, THAT'S NOW NOT A PART , THAT'S NOW NOT A HOTEL , IT'S NOW NOT THAT BECAUSE THE CRIME HAS MOVED . ARE WE CHASING THOSE DOTS, PERHAPS . THAT'S OKAY, I WOULD CHASE DOTS TO KEEP THAT FROM HAPPENING. WE ARE NOW NOTICING A CAR BURGLARIES SITUATION. THEY ARE DOWN, BUT WE ARE SEEING CAR BURGLARIES. PEOPLE ARE LEAVING. EVERY TIME YOU WILL SEE ME AND COUNSEL, WHENEVER I HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK IS PEOPLE ARE LEAVING GUNS IN THEIR CARS OVERNIGHT .
AND THE GUNS ARE BEING PROTECTED BY 1/8 INCH OR HOWEVER THICK A PIECE OF GLASS IS. THAT'S PROTECTING THEIR GUN , BECAUSE THEY LEAVE IT IN THEIR APARTMENT COMPLEX THEY FORGOT IT IN THE SEAT OR IN A PURSE, THEY FORGOT THE LAPTOP IN THEIR CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND THE PERSON JUST TUGGING ON THE DOOR OPENS UP THE DOOR OR THEY WILL LEAVE THE KEY FOB. SOMEWHERE ELSE INSIDE THE CAR AND, I'M NOT TRYING TO TELL ANY SECRETS HERE, BUT THAT'S WHAT WE ARE FACING . THAT'S WHAT WE ARE FACING ALL OVER THE CITY . IF I COULD SAY ANYTHING, IT WOULD BE PLEASE TAKE YOUR GUNS INTO THE HOUSE AT NIGHT. DON'T LEAVE ANYTHING YOUR CAR. HIDE IT,
LOCK IT, TAKE IT. >> YOU DONE AN ANALYSIS ALSO WITH THE GENDER AND THE AGE GROUP THAT'S DOING THESE KIND OF THINGS? WHAT IS IT THAT WE HAVE TO TARGET?
>> I DO KNOW THAT STATISTIC. THAT IS A MAJORITY -- BECAUSE I HAVE ASKED FOR THAT DATA MINE BECAUSE WE WENT FOR A PERIOD OF 10 DAYS, NINE DAYS WITHOUT A CAR BURGLARY. AND I THOUGHT WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT . AND IT ENDED UP THAT SOME OF THE YOUNG OFFENDERS THAT WE HAVE IN THE TOWN ARE ACTUALLY PULLING ON DOORS AND THEIR FINDING CARS UNLOCKED. AND, FOR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE ARRESTED FOR CAR BURGLARY OR WHAT THEIR CHARGE WAS, THEY WERE IN THE JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER . SO, PEOPLE, PLACES, BEHAVIOR. WHO'S DOING WHAT TO WHOM , WHERE. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THE DOTS AND MAPS. WE TRIED TO SATURATE IF THERE'S NOTHING GOING ON HERE, WE'RE GOING TO REDIRECT OUR RESOURCES TO HEAR LUCAS ON THAT. SO, WE ARE TRYING TO GET TECHNOLOGY AND HAVE TECHNOLOGY HELP US. TO ANSWER THE QUESTION, AS A JUVENILE. THE LAST MURDER OFFENSE WE HAD WAS INVOLVING A
[00:30:04]
JUVENILE, OR A VERY YOUNG PERSON. AND THE WEAPON THAT WAS USED IN THE OFFENSE WAS TAKEN OUT OF A NEARBY CITY CAR BURGLARY. SO, THE GENTLEMAN THAT WAS MURDERED , I DON'T KNOW HIS AGE, BUT HE WAS A, NOT SENIOR, I DON'T KNOW HOW OLD HE WAS , BUT THE YOUNGSTER THAT SHOT HIM WAS RIGHT AT THE JUVENILE AGE. SO, THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO FACTOR. IT'S THE YOUTH THAT'S GETTING THE DUNS AND THEY'RE GETTING IT FROM THE CAR BURGLARIES. AND WHAT'S THIS ONE HAVE? WILL ROGERS DOES NOT HAVE CAR BURGLARY IN THE MOTOR VEHICLE . AS COMPARED TO 2022 AND WILL ROGERS. LET'S GO BACK TO THE COMMUNITY CENTER REALLY CLICK.RIVERSIDE HAD BURGLARY OF A MOTOR VEHICLE , ONLY ONE COMPARED TO TWO. MAYBE THE FREQUENT CONTROLS WITH THEIRS THE COPS AGAIN, THERE'S THE COPS , THERE'S THE COPS, MAYBE THAT WAS A DETERRENT THAT KEPT COLLECTIVITY FROM GOING -- I MEAN FROM HAPPENING , AND NOW WE ARE REAPING THE BENEFITS OF PROBABLY 2022 , COULD IT WENT BACK UP TOMORROW?
>> SURE. >> THE POSITIVE THING OF THIS DATA IS IT SHOWS WHERE WE NEED TO FOCUS OUR EFFORTS. WHAT ELSE DO WE NEED TO SHIFT OUR RESOURCES? BABASED ON THIS REPORT, IT SHOWS THAT WILL ROGERS ARE IN QUEEN CITY PARK , THE TWO PARKS WHERE CRIME HAS ESSENTIALLY STAYED THE SAME OR SLIGHTLY INCREASED. SO, THOSE OTHER TWO PARKS THAT WE WILL BE WORKING ON TO SEE HOW WE CAN FURTHER REDUCE CRIME . SO, WILL ROGERS PARK AND QUEEN CITY PARK. BOTH PARKS ARE IN THE QUEEN CITY NEIGHBORHOOD. AND, SO THAT'S WHERE WE WILL FOCUS
OUR EFFORTS. >> IF YOU LOOK AT THE PRACTICES OF THE DRUG CHARGES IN '22, HE HAD ZERO, BUT AND '23, YOU HAD THREE. BIAS MAKING THAT ARREST , KIND OF ADS AND MARK OR A TICK MARK AGAINST US, IF YOU WILL. THAT'S THE POLAK , THE PROACTIVE MISS. WHEN I SEE PART TWO CRIMES AND I SEE THAT PART TWO CRIMES ARE UP , I'M OKAY WITH THAT, BECAUSE THAT YOUR PROACTIVE ARREST, THAT YOUR GUN CHARGES, THAT YOU ARE ARRESTING PEOPLE WITH A GUN CREATES A TICK MARK WHICH CAUSES THE NUMBERS TO INCREASE. SO, THE MORE GUNS I CAN GET OFF THE STREETS, THEIR HANDS OF THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT ALL DAY LONG,
THAT'S WHAT WE WILL DO. >> I'M SORRY, MIKE. I'M CURIOUS. LOOKING AT WILL ROGERS IN QUEEN CITY PARK. IS THE LIGHTING THERE ADEQUATE ? IS IT OF THE SAME CALIBER WE HAVE AT OTHER PARKS ? IS THAT A FACTOR? THE LIGHTING? NOT ENOUGH
LIGHTING ? >> TWO YEARS AGO, WE INCREASED THE LIGHTING IN BOTH PARKS. SO QUEEN CITY PARK, WE HAD INSTALLED FIVE L.E.D. SOLAR LIGHTS. I THINK THAT MAY HAVE HELPED IN KEEPING THE CRIME AT BAY. SO, WE CONTINUE TO LOOK AT WAYS TO IMPROVE THE TWO PARKS IN QUEEN CITY. AS YOU KNOW, QUEEN CITY IS ONE OF THE TWO NEIGHBORHOODS THAT THE CITY HAS TARGETED FOR REVITALIZATION , BECAUSE IT'S A HIGH POVERTY COMMUNITY. SO WE ARE ADDRESSING PUBLIC SAFETY, CODE ENFORCEMENT, HOUSING, JOBS , ALL OF THOSE FACTORS IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE IN QUEEN CITY.
SO, WE THINK IF WE REVITALIZE IT, IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE, IT WILL ULTIMATELY HELP WITH THE REDUCTION IN CRIME.
>> ANY IDEA IF THOSE TWO PARKS, ARE THOSE TWO PARKS USED AS QUICKLY OR AS MUCH AS THE OTHER PARKS, MEANING I'M THINKING OF RIVERSIDE AND HOW MANY PEOPLE PER DAY, AND GO TO THAT PARK. I'M THINKING PERHAPS THAT IS A FACTOR AS WELL AS KEEPING CRIME DOWN . IT COULD GO THE OTHER WAY, BUT THE MORE PEOPLE IN AND OUT OF THE SPACE, THE MORE EYES YOU HAVE LOOKING.
ANY IDEA IF THOSE TWO PARKS, WILL ROGERS AND QUEEN CITY ARE
USED ? >> WE KNOW WILL ROGERS PARK IS USED QUITE A BIT BY THE RESIDENCE. HOWEVER, NOT SO MUCH IN QUEEN CITY PARK . QUEEN CITY PARK IS NOT USED VERY MUCH. SO THE PLAN IS TO WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH --
[00:35:01]
TO REACTIVATE THAT PARK. SO WE WILL DO MORE ACTIVITIES IN THE>> EXACTLY. SO WE CAN ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS TO USE QUEEN CITY PARK MORE. WE DO HAVE AN EVENT ON APRIL 13TH AT QUEEN CITY PARK WHERE WE WILL INVITE THE RESIDENTS TO COME OUT AND HELP PLANT TREES IN THE COMMUNITY GARDEN , ALSO HAVE A POP UP CAR AND OTHER ACTIVITIES IN THE PARK. AGAIN, THE GOAL IS TO ACTIVATE THE PARK , ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS TO USE THE PARK.
QUEEN CITY PARK IS STILL A CHALLENGE. WE ARE WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTS ON REVITALIZING THAT
PARK. >> I DO WANT TO MENTION, CITY STAFF CONTINUES TO DO A REALLY GREAT JOB OF ADVERTISING ALL THE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS THEY HAVE VIA FACEBOOK. FACEBOOK, AND THAT, YOU GUYS ARE USING IT REALLY GREAT. THE STATE OF CARING, I KNOW PEOPLE ARE SURE WHAT'S GOING ON WITH WHAT'S GOING ON. FACEBOOK IS A GREAT PLACE TO LOOK AT PARKS AND REC. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ANYBODY CAN CALL THE CITY AND THE PARKS AND REC'S OFFICE TO FIND OUT ABOUT IT.
YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB KEEPING THE CITY INFORMED OF ALL THE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS YOU GUYS HAVE GOT GOING ON. THANK YOU FOR THAT. FROM TODDLERS TO SENIORS, SAW TODDLERS ON THE TRAIL. YOU GUYS GOT IT GOING ON. THAT'S GREAT ABOUT THE DAY OF CARRYING ON APRIL 13TH.
>> ON THE COMPARISON OF THE PARKS -- I'M SORRY. HAVE THEY DONE ANY SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND COMPARING AGAIN THE PARKS VERSUS OTHER COMMUNITIES WHO ARE EXPERIENCED THE SAME IDEAL THAT WE ARE. MAYBE, THEY MAY HAVE OTHER IDEAS THEY MIGHT BE
ABLE TO BRING IN HERE. >> THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. WE CAN LOOK INTO DOING THAT, WE HAVE NOT FORMALLY DONE THAT. WE DEFINITELY CAN LOOK AT THE COMMUNITIES THAT I EXPRESSED THE SAME SO THAT WE CAN COMPARE LESSONS LEARNED.
>> WHAT WE WOULD HAVE TO DO ALONG THAT LINE IS WE WOULD HAVE TO BASICALLY HAVE SOME SQUARE FOOTAGE , BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO COMPARE THAT APPLE TO THAT APPLE. SO IF YOU HAD A PARK IN ANOTHER CITY , THEN YOUR CONCERN, I CAN RECAST AHEAD, I CAN FORECAST AND SEE THAT IF THEY HAD X NUMBER SQUARE MILES OR WHATEVER IT WOULD BE, YOU WOULD HAVE TO COMPARE SOMETHING EXACTLY LIKE THAT IN THE SAME DEMOGRAPHIC
NEIGHBORHOOD . >> IT'S A LOT OF VARIABLES PUT
TOGETHER. >> I'M NOT SURE COMPARING THAT TO THIS , WE COULD DO THAT. I'M JUST TRYING TO THINK
A COUPLE OF STEPS AHEAD. >> BY DOING THAT -- MAKE SOME
OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK. >> WE HAD SOME IN SAN ANTONIO TO QUEEN CITY PARK. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING TO THE PARKS DEPARTMENT THERE TO SEE THE LESSONS LEARNED , HOW TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES. SO WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING OTHER CITIES TO LEARN AND SEE HOW WE CAN DO BETTER.
>> THANK YOU. >> OFF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD , I KNOW IT'S NOT FOR THIS MEETING. WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THE CRIME RATE IN THE AREA AROUND THE PARKS IN QUEEN CITY AND WILL ROGERS COMPARED WITH THE REST OF VICTORIA.
>> TO BE ABLE TO ADD OR QUICKLY SUMMARIZE THAT, IF I TAKE THE QUEEN CITY PARK AND I GOT 17 OFFENSES 2023 TO THE 19, THAT MAKES IT DOING THE MATH, 36 CRIMES THAT HAVE HAPPENED IN THOSE TWO PARKS. OVERALL , I WANT TO SAY LAST YEAR, WE HAD
>> THROUGHOUT THE CITY. DURING THE FAST MATH , WE HAD 36 GOES INTO ABOUT 6000 OFFENSES . MY BELIEF WOULD BE IS A RELATIVELY SMALL . IT WOULD BE A SMALL NUMBER.
>> WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET IT IS DOES NEIGHBORHOOD PROBLEMS LEAD INTO THE PARK AS OPPOSED TO THE PARK PROBLEMS BLEEDING
INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. >> I THINK , TO BE 100% ON BOARD WITH THIS, I THINK IF WE FOUND THE EXACT ADDRESS OF EACH ONE OF THE PARKS AND ONLY USE THAT , THOSE NUMBERS WOULD
[00:40:05]
BE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER THAN THEY ALREADY ARE. OF STUFF THAT JUST HAPPENED OF THAT PHYSICAL ADDRESS. IF YOU'RE MARKING OUT ON TRAFFIC ON A DWI, YOU ARE NOT MARKING OUT AT 1701 FILL IN THE BLANK STREET, SO IT'S NOT GOING TO PICK IT UP. THAT'S WHY WE DECIDED TO GO OUT 200 FEET. 200 FEET IS A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT -- IT'S PROBABLY EVERY HOUSE THAT FACES OR TOUCHES THE BOUNDARY OF THAT PARK. AND IF THEY WERE A CAR BURGLARY OR VICTIMIZE, NO MATTER WHAT THEY WERE , THEY WERE IN THE STATISTIC. THIS IS THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO OF CRIME , INSTEAD OF IT BEING SPECIFICALLY AT THE PARK ADDRESS . BECAUSE THE NUMBERS ARE GOING TO BE DRAMATICALLY LOWER IF SHE JUST TOOK THE ADDRESS OF THE VICTORIAN COMMUNITY CENTER PERIOD. I DON'T THINK PEOPLE ARE GOING TO KNOW THAT. 911, YOU ARE GOING TO GET A CALL THERE. BUT TO MAKE A TRAFFIC STOP OR DRUG ARREST, YOU'RE GOING TO SAY A 1300 BLOCK OF FILL IN THE BLANK STREET. I MEAN, THAT NUMBER, AND THAT'S JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, BECAUSE EARLIER TODAY, I HEARD SOMEONE ASK FOR A CASE NUMBER OR A REPORT NUMBER, IT INCLUDES ALL THE CRIMES, RIGHT ? EVERYTHING. THAT'S A CASE NUMBER . I WANT TO SAY THEY WERE IN 1500. THAT'S 500 A MONTH TIMES THE 12, WHICH WILL GIVE YOU ROUGHLY 6000 AND NOW YOU'RE TALKING 36 OFFENSES INTO THAT 6000 . SO, IT'S PROBABLY A VERY LOW NUMBER. THAT'S INCLUDING THE CARTILAGE OF THE PARK. SO, I THINK THE SAFETY OF THE PARKS IS PRETTY STRONG. I REALLY DO. I THINK THE PARKS ARE SAFE.THE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY , WE ARE TAKING CARE OF THAT ONLY A TALKING ABOUT THE DRUG ARREST, THE PRODUCTIVENESS. THOSE ARE PARKS. SUPPOSED TO BE AT PARKS. PEOPLE HAVE FUN AT PARKS, WHICH IS THE OBJECTIVE. I THINK THE PARKS ARE , IN MY OPINION, I THINK THE PARKS ARE VERY SAFE.
