Agreement for Professional Services Page 9 of 25 Project Understanding Based Upon Site Visit Based upon a site visit conducted by Leonard Matarese ICMA Consulting Services offers the following synopsis of Spokane Valley's current needs. The city wishes to determine the effectiveness of a relationship between the County Sheriff's Department of Spokane Valley. The city wishes to have in place processes and procedures to measure service performance. This will involve provision of quantitative methods to determine the appropriate staffing levels within the city's fiscal constraints and the city's policies regarding levels of public safety service. The City of Spokane Valley currently contracts for police services with the Spokane County Sheriff's Department. The primary objective of this project is to present to the City with an unbiased review of the positive and negative ramifications of renewing its contract with the Sheriff's Department. The city also has an interest to introduce routine performance measurement and to establish current levels of performance and workload in police and to identify opportunities for improved performance. Based upon the information generated by this project the city elected officials will be positioned to establish a long range strategic plan for the delivery of police services to the community. Project's Scope of Services The City of Spokane Valley currently contracts for police services with the Spokane County Sheriff's Department. The primary obiective of this project is to Present to the City with an unbiased review of the positive and negative ramifications of renewing its contract with the Sheriff's Department.

Agreement for Professional Services Page 10 of 25 The ICMA approach to departmental analysis is data driven and designed to provide elected officials with fact based information by which they can make well informed policy decisions. While we can provide detailed analysis of existing performance standards, identifying the appropriate performance levels of the police service for any particular community is a policy matter, directly related to staffing, organizational design, enforcement priorities, etc. The City has identified twenty -eight areas of inquiry as shown below. The proposal addresses each of these areas, and we identify the specific stage in which the specific area will be addressed.

Additional focus will be placed on tactical and operational training and developing problem solving capabilities within patrol force. Outline will be developed describing 'best practices" training approach to be adopted with establishment of new agency. Stage Leader: Frank Straub, Ph.D. Opportunities for Improvement To examine whether or not patrol resources are efficiently deployed over 24 -7 time period, we will graph deployment levels against workloads by time of day, day of week, and by patrol areas. We will analyze and graph police response time by call priority level and shift to identify significant patterns /differences in police response. These response time analyses will also separate out and analyze the components of police response -- call queue time, travel time, and time on scene. Consequently, a series of trend charts, maps and data tables will describe police response time in detail and will provide the variables needed for developing a plan based on Operations Research methods. We will observe and meet with dispatch operations to determine the extent of best practices employed to efficiently dispatch patrol units. We will discuss and document the extent that the police patrol management is applying principles of performance based management and continuous improvement to efficiently utilize police resources. We will explore with the patrol division, detective division and special operations strategies for improving crime prevention and crime solution activities. We will then employ Operations Research models of police patrol to determine how much response time and proactive patrol might be improved with better alignment of resources and workloads. Agreement for Professional Services Page 14 of 25 Patrol Force - Analysis of Data and Patrol Force Plannina Background - Police Patrol - Police departments utilize their patrol forces in two modes: reactively to respond to calls for service and proactively to address crime problems as well ongoing nuisance issues. (See Figure 1.) Detectives provide another element of a primarily reactive force, seeking to solve crimes that have already been committed. Policies & Process Management Continuous Improy_etg0_ Leverage Resoureas_ i Flexible and Creative Resource �.Math.MOdal_ _ _ _ _ _ _ Allocation Citizen Expectation Citizen Complaints and Proactive Citizen Fear Reactively - citizen initiated calls • High priority calls - citizens expect extremely rapid response • Moderate Priority calls - Best practice departments manage citizens' expectation by letting them know a realistic response time and then meeting or surpassing their expectation. If there is an unexpected further delay, the citizen is contacted with up- to -date information • Low priority calls - Best practice departments find creative strategies such as a telephone crime reporting so as to free up the patrol force for either rapid response to a high priority call or to continue with crime- directed activities. • On -Scene handling: The manner in which a police officer handles himself or herself on -scene plays a critical role in developing or discouraging citizen support for the police department Rapid response to the highest priority calls can sometimes mean the difference between life and death but is unlikely to broadly influence the crime rate. Meeting or exceeding citizen expectations reduces the number of citizen complaints and increases community support for the police department. Community support is a critical element in developing a proactive crime directed patrol force. With accurate and timely data, a police department can reduce Agreement for Professional Services Page 15 of 25 response time by adopting a philosophy of data driven continuous improvement that usually entails first finding the multiple root causes of slow response and then changing operating policies that contribute to the problem. They can also reduce response time by making data driven strategic decisions that better match patrol force levels with police patrol workloads. Proactively - Police initiated in cooperation with citizenry ❑ Police departments use detailed crime data to develop both short -term targeted activities and long lasting strategic initiatives ❑ Police departments can use specially assigned units in conjunction with the in- between call time of the patrol force ❑ Performance measures and accountability of management is a critical element of this strategy ❑ Activities need to be tracked so as to determine their effectiveness and to continually evolve so as to respond to changing crime patterns Project Data Analysis I . Document current police patrol performance and workload levels 2. Establish a range of performance goals and objectives for the Police Department 3. Identify opportunities to improve on performance with existing resources 4. Estimate the manpower requirements and associated costs that would be needed to achieve city and police management specified performance objectives 5. Provide guidance on routine standard reports that should be used to track performance 6. Evaluate the city's crime rate and conduct a crime analysis to identify "hot spots" and evaluate current policing strategies to deal with them. 7. Review organizational structure and staffing and propose appropriate changes. Current Performance We will analyze in -depth four weeks of summer data and four weeks of winter data and assess variations by time of day, day of week, season and district. The analysis will include all of the following: a) Patrol deployment levels b) Average response time to different call priorities c) Proportion of calls in each category for which response times are unacceptably long. For example, we will determine the proportion of high priority calls that experience response times of longer than 10 minutes d) Document time periods during the week in which response times seem excessive e) Average and median time spent on calls with different priorities f) Proportion of calls with unusually long time spent on -scene g) Proportion of calls requiring more than one patrol unit h) Resources allocated to proactive patrol i) Resources consumed on non -value added activities Agreement for Professional Services Page 16 of 25 Project Staffing and Organization Malar-e.
