REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Date: 6/16/2025 Item No.: 7.e. Department Approval City Manager Approval Item Description: Receive The Axtell Group's report on the Evaluation of Roseville Police Department Resources and Operational Efficiency 1 2 Background 3 On October 14, 2024, the City Council authorized the Roseville Police Department (RPD) to solicit 4 proposals for a comprehensive evaluation of department resources and operational efficiency. The goal 5 of the study was to assess RPD’s current operations, identify areas for improvement, and ensure the 6 department continues to meet the evolving needs and expectations of the Roseville community. 7 Following a competitive RFP process, The Axtell Group was unanimously selected by a review 8 committee consisting of city and police leaders. On December 2, 2024, the City Council approved 9 entering into a Professional Services Agreement with The Axtell Group to conduct the evaluation. 10 Since beginning their work in early 2025, The Axtell Group has completed a robust and data-informed 11 assessment of the Roseville Police Department. Their methodology included structured interviews with 12 department personnel, a detailed review of department documents and workload data, an anonymous 13 department-wide staff survey, and direct community engagement through focus groups and outreach 14 events. 15 The evaluation highlights both the department’s strengths and ongoing challenges, providing a series of 16 recommendations to enhance operational efficiency, improve resource alignment, and strengthen 17 community trust and responsiveness. 18 Representatives from The Axtell Group will present a summary of their findings and recommendations. 19 20 Policy Objectives 21 Roseville is committed to providing ethical, efficient, and responsive local government that reflects the 22 community’s aspirations. A key part of this is ensuring public safety services are equitable, effective, and 23 aligned with the evolving needs of all residents. 24 The comprehensive evaluation of the Roseville Police Department’s (RPD) staffing and operations 25 supports this goal by identifying opportunities to enhance service delivery, improve resource allocation, 26 and strengthen operational efficiency. The assessment also prioritizes meaningful community 27 engagement to foster trust, transparency, and collaboration between RPD and the people it serves. 28 In addition, the findings and recommendations from this study will help guide the city’s ongoing strategic 29 planning process. By incorporating data-driven insights and community-informed perspectives, the city 30 can more effectively align its long-term goals, priorities, and resource investments to ensure a safe, 31 inclusive, and sustainable future for all Roseville residents. 32 This initiative will help ensure RPD remains responsive, forward-looking, and well-positioned to support 33 a strong, safe, and resilient community.
