Sheriff Bostrom invited residents to continue turning in drugs, mainly prescription drugs, into the 1 <br />patrol station on Hamline. Other drop-off sites can be found on the website. As of July 2015, 2 <br />6,000 pounds have been turned in. 3 <br /> 4 <br />Sheriff Bostrom stated some of the detention staff have mentioned there are a large number of 5 <br />phone calls coming in and staff was hoping to automate the calls. The calls mainly were asking if 6 <br />the person they are looking for is in custody. Options of sending emails have been given to those 7 <br />wanting to correspond with people in custody and voicemail is another option. Visitation rules 8 <br />are explained on the automated answering system and 20-minute video visitations are done. 9 <br />Remote visitations are also available. With these types of interventions, the detention facility 10 <br />became safer as the persons held have better attitudes knowing someone on the outside is 11 <br />thinking of them. 12 <br /> 13 <br />Mayor Faust stated he was struck by what was said about treating people humanely and 14 <br />applauded the Sheriff’s office for doing that. He noted in October, there was a Fire Department 15 <br />Open House and the Sheriff’s Department had a communications EOC vehicle. It showed 16 <br />residents the technology that was available should a disaster occur. Mayor Faust thanked the 17 <br />Police Department and Sheriff’s Department for their collaboration. 18 <br /> 19 <br />Sheriff Bostrom stated he is working with strong Police Chiefs in the community. 20 <br /> 21 <br />III.
