2002 ACCOMPI,~gHMENT3 We continue to meet such routine successes as state and federal trainin mandates, coding standards, ma.intain.ing p~ST mandated rules and g regulations, and the operation of an effective and professional agency. Iri addition to these routine successes, we also note the following for 2002: • Trained all department personnel on the 800 megahertz radio system and successfully made the transition. This transition will allow for unprecedented agency interoperability. • Created a new uniform police report, which encompasses ICR, offense, and arrest information. This form greatly reduces paperwork and duplication of information. • Created a uniform supplement report, which is completed via computer on a Word Program. • Implemented a "less-lethal" policy and trained ail officers on the less-lethal shotgun impact projectile (sock round). • Completed school intruder drills. • Kept officer turnover low. In fact, again this year, we did not lose a single officer. This greatly benefits residents by keeping trained and experienced • officers in the city. • Maintained a position in the Community Prevention Coalition (now the Family Service Collaborative), agrass roots organization developed to provide positive opportunities for area youth. • Completed "active" shooter training with all officers. Active shooter training involves immediate response and contact by responding officers for active shooting situations. • Trained and a ui q pped three officers to work in conjunction with amulti-city emergency response unit. This unit trains monthly, and can be utilized for barricaded suspects, high risk warrant execution, etc. • Worked with Ramsey and Hennepin Counties regarding terrorism grants and emergency operations. • Established Internet connectivity and began utilizing the new Minnesota Repository of Arrest Photographs. This connectivity greatly reduces the amount of time officers need to spend pulling together photo lineups and identifying suspects by responding to either Hennepin or Ramsey County Jails. • We created and implemented a new non-bias policing polic . • Completed Use of Force training in house, utilizing our own instructors. • Met all state and federal training mandates.
