Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for April 19, 2021 <br />Page 4 of 6 <br />incident calls. The highest call load occurred between 3-9 p.m. He said deputies work around <br />the clock, and he encouraged anyone seeing something suspicious to call immediately. He <br />reviewed the 2020 crime incidents and quality of life incidents stats, and he talked about fraud <br />and phone scams. He said Hugo Detective Lee Mars remained busy and does a fabulous job. He <br />presented trends on types of crimes in Hugo saying the stats were shared with deputies so they <br />could provide proper attention. Citations and moving violations were mapped so they could see <br />what areas they needed to provide additional enforcement. He said in 2021, they were looking <br />forward to there being more events and opportunities for them to be engaged in the community. <br />Council asked about the annual memorial service, whether traffic violations were by local <br />residents or those outside the community, and if they were seeing more people on the roads as <br />COVID restrictions lessen. Starry replied the memorial service would be held virtual again this <br />year, and traffic violators differ from location, but many are locals speeding in their own <br />neighborhoods. He stated there was an increase in people out, and he asked that everyone slow <br />down, pay attention, and report things that are suspicious. There was a discussion on the new <br />social media trend to report incidents online instead of calling the Sheriff's office. Starry <br />encouraged people to call 911 dispatch since 911 now handles emergency and non -emergency <br />issues. <br />Approval of Consent Agenda <br />Klein made motion, Miron seconded, to approve the following consent agenda: <br />1.
