Community Service Officer <br />CSO William Owens <br />There are two part-time <br />Community Service Officers. These <br />non -sworn personnel provide officer <br />support and public assistance. Their <br />responsibilities include: public <br />fingerprinting, police department <br />tours, ordinance and parking <br />enforcement, prisoner transport, traffic <br />control, public assist calls, prisoner <br />monitoring, animal complaints, <br />vehicle lockouts, child passenger seat <br />safety checks and assist records staff <br />with entering reports and other related <br />paperwork needs. <br />Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) <br />This marks the 8th year of the department's involvement in the <br />program. DARE was taught by Officer Bill Kubes at Lino Lakes and <br />Rice Lake Elementary schools, and during 2005 Blue Heron <br />Elementary agreed to implement the program in their school for the <br />upcoming school year. Although it is difficult to measure the success <br />of DARE, there are many positive relationships gained throughout the <br />community and the building of relationships with the students, as well <br />as providing positive role models for students who are at a very <br />impressionable age. Teaching children the skills to deal with resistance <br />in today's society and to say "no" to alcohol and drugs are the major <br />focus of DARE. <br />CSO Shane Quinn <br />Lino Lakes Police Department 2005 Annual Report 21 <br />
