2016 Annual Report • Police Department • St. Anthony Village, Minnesota 3 | Page III. Contract City Summary The St. Anthony Police Department’s relationship with Falcon Heights and Lauderdale has been a long standing mutually beneficial collaboration. Providing law enforcement services to these communities has allowed us to share services and the ability to create multiple resources none of us, on our own, could afford. In recognition of our long standing relationship and successful cooperative efforts, our three city councils were able to agree on a multiple year contract. This long term contract builds stability and ensures continuity of services for all three cities. We ar e fortunate to have three city councils that have the same shared vision. It is important that the St. Anthony Council has an idea of our activity level in our contract cities and, to this end, I would like to offer some statistics for Lauderdale and Falcon Heights as a part of the St. Anthony Annual Report. We provide all of the same services in Lauderdale and Falcon Heights as we do in St. Anthony, and we also ascribe to the same principles for law enforcement and crime prevention. As a part of our crime prevention program, we ran dozens of events for Lauderdale and Falcon Heights to include many of the same or similar programs detailed in the St. Anthony report. In Lauderdale, we issued 1051 citations and made 327 arrests. In Falcon Heights, we issued 1647 citations and made 539 arrests. We also keep track of Part I and Part II Crimes in our contract cities. In Lauderdale, we investigated 37 Part I Crimes and 57 Part II Crimes. Falcon Heights Part I Crimes came in at 95 and Part II at 97. We also handled 2,989 calls for service in Falcon Heights and 1,689 in Lauderdale. When combining the three cities, the statistics for our police department become substantial, keeping us very busy throughout the year. The following is a summary combination of all three cities: Arrests 1,464 Citations 4,378 Calls for Service 10,478 Part I Crimes 345 Part II Crimes 297 We are proud to provide quality professional law enforcement services to both our citizens and businesses as well as to our contract city partners.
