<br />S PEED ENFORCEMENT AND RADAR <br /> <br /> <br />In 2007, the Centennial Lakes Police Department aggressively enforced speed limits <br />within our jurisdictions. Officers issued 606 citations for speeding violations in the cities <br />of Centerville, Circle Pines, and Lexington. This totals tops last year's total by 63 <br />citations. Officers issued 3, 724 warnings in 2007 for moving violations, 374 more than <br />last year. This total includes, but is not limited to, warnings for speed.. <br /> <br />The Centennial Lakes Police Department maintained a proactive approach to speeding <br />violations in aneffort to reduce property damage and injuries caused by drivers operating <br />their vehicles at unsafe speeds. Aggressive speed enforcement also led to the discovery <br />of unlicensed drivers, intoxicated drivers, warrant arrests, and insurance violations. <br /> <br />In conjunction with random speed patrol, officers responded to citizen complaints of <br />speeding in specific locations. Officers also provided a high profile presence in school <br />zones during student arrival and departure to deter speeding violations. <br /> <br />The Centennial Lakes Police Department's patrol fleet is equipped with six top of the line <br />Stalker brand dash mounted radars, two of which were purchased early in 2007. With the <br />addition of these two radars, the department has completed its update of the radar fleet. <br />This technology greatly increases the effectiveness of speed patrols. In inclement <br />weather, officers have a marked four wheel drive truck equipped with radar at their <br />disposal. This has not been available to officers in the past. Officer also have a hand- <br />held laser unit. In 2007, a large portion of the patrol officers were certified in the use of <br />this laser. <br /> <br />34 <br />
