Pacific schedules Nov. 18 CAD launch; police evidence-room grant starts Oct. 1
Summary
At the Sept. 22 workshop the council heard staff updates that the police CAD system is scheduled to go live Nov. 18, 2025, and a Department of Commerce grant for an evidence-room remodel will begin Oct. 1, 2025; officials also noted Taser 10 equipment rollout, the Blue Bridge credit card program, and work on an interlocal monitoring agreement with Kent.
The City of Pacific heard technology and police operations updates at its Sept. 22, 2025 council workshop, including a Nov. 18, 2025 go-live date for the police computer-aided dispatch (CAD) system and the start of a Department of Commerce grant to remodel the police evidence room on Oct. 1, 2025.
City staff reported work underway in information technology on an exchange migration and implementation of Laserfiche for electronic records; the IT report also cited updates related to the police CAD program. The workshop record notes the CAD program will go live on Nov. 18, 2025. Separately, the minutes state a Department of Commerce grant for an evidence room remodel will begin Oct. 1, 2025.
The police report documented several operational items the department is pursuing: partnering with the Blue Bridge credit card program intended to assist people who may be in distress, rolling out Taser 10 equipment across the department, and negotiating an interlocal agreement with the City of Kent to support an electronic home monitoring program. The minutes do not specify which staff member presented each individual item; the record lists Lieutenant Terry Carter and Information Technology Director Lorden Ingraham among staff present.
No formal council action or vote was taken on these updates at the workshop; the items were presented as department reports under Committee of the Whole (COW) updates. The council did not discuss budgetary appropriation for the CAD go-live or the grant in the workshop minutes; further budget or implementation details were not specified.
Next steps: the CAD go-live is scheduled for Nov. 18, 2025, and the evidence-room grant activity is recorded as beginning Oct. 1, 2025. The council workshop minutes do not list required follow-up dates or additional hearings tied to these IT and police projects.
