Attitude Leadership Integrity Service Teamwork 2016 Annual Report PAGE 1

The theme for Tigard PD in 2016 was ‘change.’ As a department, we adjusted to the departure of several seasoned employees as well as the retirements of our long-time Chief and Assistant Chief.

Chief Orr and Assistant Chief de Sully exemplified a professional dedication that will not be forgotten. Theirs was a service beyond expectations and the department salutes them.

There was much to be thankful for in 2016 as well, as we were fortunate to have welcomed several new officers and staff members into the department. As part of the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget, four additional patrol officers were funded. In July we embarked on a recruiting process and by the close of 2016, two of the new positions were filled and the remaining two had offers pending. We are championing all of our new recruits as they navigate their police training and prepare to join the rest of the department in serving the Tigard community.

In the fall, the City kicked-off a national search for our new Chief. This has been an exciting time for all of us as we prepare for new leadership.

Thank you for letting us serve you – we look forward to more changes in 2017.

Sincerely,

Robert RogersInterim Chief of Police

2016 Annual Report Attitude Leadership Integrity Service Teamwork

The Department is organized into three divisions Operations, Services and Administration with 88.5 full-time equivalent positions. Of that total, there were 73 sworn officers and 15.5 non-sworn personnel.

Patrol is the backbone of the department providing first responders to calls for service and emergencies. The Patrol unit consists of 34 officers working in three shifts providing coverage 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. When not responding to calls, officers proactively connect with citizens and business owners in community-based policing efforts utilizing the District Officer concept.

The practice of assigning officers to districts enhances their knowledge of geographic specific problems related to safety and security of Tigard’s neighborhoods.

Traffic Safety is comprised of three motorcycle officers who focus almost exclusively on making Tigard’s roadways safe for residents and visitors alike by enforcing state and local

traffic laws. Officers conduct focused enforcement campaigns throughout the year, including crosswalk, safety belt, DUII and speeding, in addition to regularly patrolling the City’s arterials, corridors and highways. The unit is supported by two non-sworn Community Service Officers who assist with traffic control, abandoned vehicles, equipment procurement and special event logistics.

INVESTING IN RESOURCES

Department Staffing

Canine Unit Tigard has one canine team consisting of a specially trained officer and police dog – Diesel. Together, they track, locate and apprehend suspects throughout Tigard and in support of other jurisdictions across Washington County. The Department is in the process of replacing retired police dog Baxter.

Criminal Investigations Unit Detectives are responsible for investigating serious crimes against persons and property including homicide, assault, sex abuse, child abuse, rape, burglary, major theft, computer crimes, and cases requiring specialized training and experience. The group also includes two out-sourced detectives working with regional interagency teams:

• Westside Interagency Narcotics Team – one detective

• Drug Enforcement Administration Task Force – one detective

• METRO’s Solid Waste Enforcement Team – one detective

Commercial Crimes Unit (CCU)CCU is a team-oriented policing partnership with the business community whose purpose is to reduce commercial and business crimes, particularly in the expanding occurrences of organized retail crime. The CCU meets this objective by conducting focused, proactive investigations; providing training and educational opportunities to local businesses, and directly working with business owners on reducing their security risks.

School Resource Unit serves the Tigard-Tualatin School District at the elementary, middle and high school levels by visibly interacting with the staff and students at their corresponding schools and after-school events, when requested. The School Resource Officers (SROs) also provide investigative assistance to the Operations Division on matters involving schools, investigate reports of child abuse and neglect, conduct follow-up investigations related to school-age missing persons and teach Gang Resistance Education and Training curriculum to fourth and sixth grade students as well as Internet safety, “I Can Do This!” classes, suicide prevention, and self-defense.

Records Management Unit The unit supports sworn personnel by providing timely information used in the apprehension and prosecution of criminals. Five records specialists are responsible for processing internal and external records requests as well as managing data with various law enforcement records management systems, processing traffic citations, field interrogations cards, false alarm notifications, incident cards and liquor license applications.

Peer Court Program Specialist administers the Tigard Youth Peer Court program and coordinates referrals to juvenile courts. The program specialist also functions as the department’s liaison to the Tigard Youth Advisory Council and other area youth-focused programs, as directed.

Property and Evidence The unit records and maintains the chain of custody for evidence and found property, ensures the proper release of items in their care to owners, manages the destruction of evidence per statute of limitations and court orders. The section supports all sworn personnel by releasing evidence for court presentations.

Crime Analyst The analyst provides timely information that assists officers in solving crimes and detecting crime patterns within the city and throughout the region. The Crime Analyst supports management’s efforts in allocating resources appropriately and effectively by providing tactical and strategic analysis. The analyst collaborates with law enforcement partners to ensure regional anti-crime efforts are coordinated through information sharing.

Executive Staff The Chief and Commanders are accountable for the overall success of the department by providing vision, direction and overseeing all departmental functions and activities. The Executive Staff represents the department internally and with our community partners. They are directly supported by the Public Information Officer, the Business Manager and the Confidential Executive Assistant.

The budget supports our primary goal to reduce crime and the fear of crime.

Spending by Division: Chart 1Patrol functions are the majority of costs within the Operations Division. Operations includes officers and supervisors assigned to all three shifts – Day, Swing and Graveyard – as well as the Traffic Unit and K9 team. The Services Division includes detectives (within the Criminal Investigations Unit, Commercial Crimes Unit and outsourced detectives), the Records Unit, Property and Evidence and Peer Court. The Administrative Division is comprised of the Chief, the Confidential Executive Assistant, the Public Information Officer and Business Manager.

Spending by Division: Chart 1 Chart 2 illustrates that the Police budget is nearly three quarters salaries and benefits. The remainder of the budget supports vehicles (replacement, maintenance and fuel), training, uniforms, technology and related equipment as well as administrative functions including human resources, accounting, facilities and information technology support.

We strive to “enhance the safety and security of Tigard’s residents, visitors and businesses” in a cost effective manner.

LAW ENFORCEMENT CONNECTIONS

Interagency Partnerships


Tigard is committed to traffic safety and developing new methods for educating the public. In collaboration with the Tigard Municipal Court, the Police Department administers the Distracted Driver Diversion program.

Distracted Driver DiversionFor adult drivers, the class may be offered by the court following a ‘no contest’ plea to a cellphone or other distracted driving violation in lieu of a conviction on their driving record. The program is offered free to Tigard teenagers as part of our teen driver safety education initiative.

In 2016, Tigard Officers instructed over 300 participants regarding the dangers of distracted driving.

Traffic Safety GrantsThe Tigard Police Department continues its partnership with the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and nonprofit Oregon Impact to secure National Highway Traffic Safety Administration grant dollars.

There has been a noticeable increase in the reported incidents of “societal” crimes, although this does not mean an increase in actual activity. In 2016, Tigard officers were able to dedicate more time to proactive police projects. The more that officers are available, the more they are able to deter issues before they become serious problems. Increased proactive policing leads to additional police reports.

The ability of officers to utilize undesignated time to proactively patrol and engage the community the greater their ability to have an impact on some property crimes. In 2016 we saw an unusual spike in motor vehicle theft primarily of older model cars that lacked the technology to deter easy theft.
