SUBJECT: Police Services
Background/Discussion
Sheriff Matt Bostrom is scheduled to be at this work session to discuss local police
services. Sheriff Bostrom annually meets with the cities in the County and was at our
October 17, 2011, work session for a general discussion on the core services of the
Sheriff's Department. Sheriff Bostrom also attended the emergency response training
session the City Council had on February 27, 2012.
Arden Hills is one of the seven municipal jurisdictions that contract with the County for
police services. The other members of the contracted communities group are: Vadnais
Heights, Little Canada, White Bear Township, Gem Lake, Shoreview and North Oaks.
All seven jurisdictions combined equal approximately 56 square miles and a population
of 74,000. Arden Hills joined the group in 1980. There has been no change in
membership of the contracted communities group since 1990. The contracted
communities group is highlighted in the attached map of Ramsey County.
The purpose of this August 20th work session discussion is for the Sheriff to review what
has happened since he took office in January 2011, explain what his expectations are
going forward, and to listen to City Council comments and concerns on local issues.
It is anticipated that the work session discussion will concentrate on services and will not
get into too much on the budget. The budget is mainly the responsibility of Undersheriff
Serier and the Contracted Communities Board (Undersheriff Serier was promoted in July
and his responsibilities include administration of the contracted communities group).
Additionally, once the total budget is decided,then the City's cost is based on the funding
formula as agreed upon by the contracted communities and this formula has evolved over
the years.
Attached for your review are a few informational pages from the Sheriff's website.
