MOUNDS VIEW POLICE DEPARTMENT 2401 Mounds View Boulevard Mounds View, MN 55112 763-717-4070 MOUNDS VIEW POLICE 2018 GOALS • Hire and train a new officer(s), send officer to VCET by late May. • Successfully implement second K9 Officer (late April). • Continue successful outreach programs (mobile rock wall outreach, NNO, NNO pre - party, father daughter ball, shop with a cop, bowl with a cop, coffee with a cop), and implement several new ones: o PD vs FD hockey game o Public Safety Academy o Kids N Cops hockey (four different neighborhood specific events). • Continue to identify and develop instructors from within the ranks • Expand neighborhood speed bump program • Police sponsored picnic for city employees (July 23). • Improve social media footprint and outreach documentation. • ICAT and reality based training, active shooter training for entire agency. • Mobile outreach and command vehicle successful debut. The agency is currently two officers short and the majority of these goals will be possible only if we successfully hire and train an officer(s). We are limited financially in what we can do with outreach, however, the Mounds View Police Department Foundation was started to help address this. The Foundation has raised $6000.00 for the new K9, is funding several of our outreach events, and supplements our limited manpower with volunteers. Our vision beyond 2018 would include addressing the building and several of the challenges we face: no showers, lockers too small, inadequate storage, inadequate holding facility, no "soft" interview room for victims. In 2019 we will need to begin replacing portable radios for the entire agency ($3500 each).
