Summary

The sheriff's office reported calls for service and jail population numbers, promoted a blood drive and described a final impaired-driving enforcement push with MoDOT around New Year's; an apparent numeric inconsistency in the transcript was flagged for clarification.

At the meeting, a speaker the transcript later identifies as 'Sheryl' delivered the sheriff's department year-end report. She said calls for service over the last week totaled 312 and reported a jail population of 115, with 96 males and 19 females. The sheriff's office announced a blood drive and encouraged community members to donate.

The sheriff's office also said it would run a final impaired-driver enforcement initiative in partnership with the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) around New Year's Eve; the initiative is expected to conclude on Jan. 1. The department urged residents to designate sober drivers during holiday celebrations.

The transcript records a 'yearly totals' figure as 20,008.29 immediately after the calls-for-service number; the context of that figure was not clarified during the meeting. The number as recorded in the transcript appears inconsistent with the notion of 'calls for service' and should be confirmed with the sheriff's office or records staff.

The sheriff offered to present end-of-year statistics in more detail at a mid-January meeting so commissioners and the public have a full accounting of activity.
