PROBLEM The department's existing Table of Organization has been in place since September of 1986. The current Table of Organization does not provide for an Assistant Chief, night managers, or a Research and Development Unit. The absence of these positions has gradually impaired department effectiveness and pointed out a need for department reorganization. II. RECOMMENDATIONS I recommend that the attached revised' Table of Organization for the Police Department be submitted to the City Council for their review and approval. The highlights of this recommended Table of Organization lnclude: A. The creation of an Assistant Chief's position. B. A reduction in the total number of divisions from four to three. C. A reduction in the total number of Captains from four to three. D. The assignment of department managers to night responsibilities. E. A reduction in the total number of Area Commanders to three. F. The creation of a Research, Development and Inspections Unit. II I.. FINDINGS Currently the department's organization does not call for an Assistant Chief of Police. This position was deleted when the department last reorganized in 1986. The absence of this position has impaired department effectiveness. Filling this position will improve the continuity of the department's command structure. The proposed Assistant Chief's position will have responsibility for managing day-to-day department operations, supervision of the Division Commanders, management of the department's Internal Affairs operation, supervision of the Research, Development and Inspections Unit and overall management of the department in the absence of the Chief of Police. The Assistant Chief will also carry out special duties as assigned' by the Chief of Police. In order to provide an Assistant Chief's position and not increase the total number of department personnel assigned to management, one Captain's position will be deleted. This will require that the total number of divisions be reduced from four to three. By doing this the workloads of the various Division Commanders will be equalized. The cost for this position upgrade is estimated to be approximately $7,920. This figure was arrived at by averaging the sal ary of a Pol ice Captain ana the Police Chief. Exact figures will have to determined by using the Charter Section 186 formula. . 75-0264 ,-'" ......... During the last three years it has become obvious that there is a need for management level pol ice personnel to be on duty during the evening and early morning hours. In order to accomplish this assignment, the number of Area Commanders will be reduced from six to three. This will provide three additional Lieutenants for Watch Commander assignments. These three lieutenants will be assigned to the evening and early morning shifts, with one of them serving as relief for the other two. These lieutenant Watch Commanders will be assigned to manage all department operations in the absence of the command staff. The assignment of managers to these Watch Commander positions will enable the Pol ice Department to more effectively and efficiently respond to requests for service from the community. The reduction in Area Commanders from six to three will not impact the size, number, or location of the existing police areas. Six areas will still remain exactly the same as they are now. However, each Area Commander will now be in charge of two, rather than one, areas. This will allow for continuity in the existing area and City Neighborhood Watch Associations. It will also more nearly equalize the number of department personnel each Area Commander will be responsible for. Finally, it will provide enough Sergeants to enable the Area Commanders to delegate some of their resfonsibilities to a designated police supervisor. Thus, the leve of service currently being provided by the Area Commanders will not be diminished. . It has become increasingly more obvious, during the last three years, that the complexity of managing a police or~anization and responding to ever lncreasing demands by the communlty for police service requires strategic planning. The ever increasing vul nerabi 1 i ty of the department to 1 aw suits has demonstrated a need for constant re-evaluation of our operational policies. In order to meet these needs, a Research, Development and Inspections Unit is needed. This unit will be staffed by a Police lieutenant reporting to the Assistant Chief. This lieutenant's responsibilites will include strategic planning, policy deve 1 opment, and department inspect ions. Th is wi 11 enable the organization to anticipate change and respond more rapidly to it. It will also help insure that our operational procedures are current, correct, and designed to minimize liability. Finally, an ongoing inspectional operation will help to guarantee compliance with these policies. The Council Personnel Committee met October 19, 1989, and fo 11 owi ng general discus s i on recommended the Counc il adopt the Department's proposed reorganization. IV. ACTION PAPERS None V.
