2 <br />While the current philosophy of the Lino Lakes Police Department is undisputedly <br />effective, it does demand more of employees than a traditional reactive p olicing <br />philosophy. Officers are expected to spend a considerable amount of time engaged with <br />the community and participating in problem solving a ctivities. Officers track their time <br />doing specific activities on their shift log. Table one details which log codes are <br />considered proactive. <br /> <br />Table 1: <br />Reactive Proactive <br />ADMINISTRATION BUILDING CHECKS <br />ASSIST AGENCY <br />BUSINESS <br />CONTACT <br />BACKUP LLPD <br />COMPLIANCE <br />CHECKS <br />FOLLOW UP CRIME MAPPING <br />INVESTIGATION HOUSE CHECKS <br />PAPERWORK LICENSE CHECKS <br />PUBLIC ASSISTS <br />O PEN GARAGE <br />DOOR <br />RADIO CALLS PARKING <br />ROLL CALL PATROL <br />TRAINING POP PROJECT <br />BREAKS PRT INVEST <br />MEETINGS <br />SCHOOL <br />CROSSING <br />DELIVERIES SPECIAL DETAILS <br />WELLNESS Speed Trailer <br /> <br />SUSPICIOUS <br />ACTIVITY <br /> <br />TRAFFIC CONTROL <br /> <br />TRAFFIC <br />ENFORCEMENT <br /> <br />TRAFFIC STOP <br /> <br />UNS ECURED CAR <br />DOOR <br /> <br />WARRANT <br />ATTEMPTS <br /> <br /> <br />Traditional, reactive police departments usually divide a patrol officer’s time into thirds , <br />with 1/3 spent responding to calls for service, 1/3 enga ged in random patrol , and 1/3 in <br />administrative duties. The I ntern ational Chiefs of Police suggests that agencies take a <br />more pr oactive approach with a minimum of 33% of an officer’s time spent on COP and <br />POP activities. Lino Lakes has a target of 45% proactive activity for patrol staff. Figure <br />one shows the perce ntage of time that the patrol unit spent conducting proactive crime <br />prevention. <br />
