The council received routine public-safety reports from the police and fire departments.

The police report (delivered by the department chief) listed 2,126 calls for service in October, 45 traffic-crash reports and a mix of citations and arrests. The chief reported a seizure of 27.6 grams of fentanyl and cited a DEA-derived lethality estimate, saying the quantity seized is "enough to kill approximately 13,800 people." The police update also included speed-camera citation totals and towing statistics.

Fire Chief Kukulis reported 183 emergency incidents for October and described an Okaloosa County post-overdose support team that follows up with overdose victims within 24–72 hours. The chief said the county program, backed by grant funding, had secured nearly 10,000 doses of naloxone for distribution and that the fire department would place public-access naloxone boxes outside its facility to improve community access.

Both chiefs framed their remarks as operational updates and invited community participation in upcoming public events and training.
