Imagine Roseville 2425 Gaals and Starategies <br />Regarding Roseville Pnlice D�partment Items <br />Cozx��xa.e�ats �-ozxa Richa7rd Houck, Cha�rrr�an <br />Roseville Pol�ce Cor�anaission <br />As nne nat intimately involved or acq�ainted �i�h the operation of the Folice <br />Depa�me��, z�s cosis a�d/or �'i�u�ding, I do r�ot feeT par�icularly c�ua�zfied �o cammez�t an <br />zx�any of the ztems, since �any i�r�ot rz�os� z�volve add�tionaX personal, tia�e <br />cnm�itme�ats, a�d/ar additiox�al funding. T zx�ake the �'allowiz�g ca�anaents i�an as a <br />private Roseville citizen. <br />I beiieve that it is �he pri�ne responsibility of the police department to address crime and <br />lawlessness in ihe city, �revent crirne and lar�lessness if pnssible, and assist city residenfs <br />in every way possible. Maz�y o�'t�e suggested iteams in the repon fi� into �hese categories. <br />T�ose that do not should be placed low on t�e priority list if nvt rema�red. The pnlice <br />depar�men� must keep its focus on law enforcemen� a�d not necessarily on extraneQUs <br />saczal aance�ras t�at may duplicate other agencies efforts, and no� be distracted from its <br />main respa�sibilitxes wzth additional social duties. <br />1.A.6.k 1 do not thin% the bicycle patrol is f�ctional or necessary. <br />1.a.6.1 T believe addition:al CSQ's wauld be goad i� it i�deed it asszst,s i� ihe hiring o� <br />new regular and qualified police nfi'icers, and I believe it woulc� ta �hat. <br />T belxeve t�a� xrzany Qithe educational sugges�ians — school, ea.�p, park, ete. are no� the <br />primary respansibili�y of the PD, but that of paren.ts, schools, and other agencies, and <br />police tim� and efforts shnuld not be used �o replace those. <br />� also believe that property code enforcement is not the �rirnary res�ons�bi�ity of the PD <br />b�i PD should assist property code en£orcerraent afiicials only When needed andlor <br />necessary. <br />3.D... En�isting comanunity and neighborhood watch �rograa�s is �ielpfiil ta the exercise <br />af PD responsfbalities a�d slaould he expanded i�possible. <br />PD shnulti nnt try to replace progra�ns that are already being acco�nplished by other <br />agencies such as "RU�K" ar�d athers. <br />S.A.6.i I belie�ve that officers living in Roseviile could and should be allnwed �o take <br />vehieles home if possible w�en it does no� short ve�icles for oiher of£'icial dtzties. <br />14.C.3.c A grant ma�ager on comrr�ission could be worth some e�fort. <br />14.C.3.d I am absolut�ly opposed to City Owned Liquor Stores. Ti�at effort was not <br />suecessful in t�e past and I believe �he City should nat compete with private enterprise <br />nor shou�c� this be a concern �f the PD. <br />
