Accountability and Transparency

We understand that accountability and transparency build trust.

To promote agency and officer integrity, we routinely assess our police-citizen interactions, identify valuable officer in-service training opportunities and encourage our officers to set personal goals directly related to fair and equitable policing initiatives.

Processes We Promote

The list below includes a variety of specific processes we have instilled to further accountability and transparency:

• Contribute to an online platform for traffic and pedestrian stop data for law enforcement agencies. See the Traffic and Field Stops page for more information.
• Promote clear guidance to our community members on how to make citizen comments, complaints and inquiries.
• Invest in training opportunities that promote cognizant understanding of implicit bias, fair and impartial policing and crisis intervention when interacting with individuals in a mental health crisis.
• Set goals directly tied to community outreach and fair and impartial policing tactics.

We work diligently to foster an environment in which security and individual rights are equally valued.
