Summary
The police representative told the advisory board that a Teen Police Academy with 10 participants is starting next Monday, a new hire will attend the police academy for 16 weeks, and Lieutenant Chissellini began the lieutenant post on July 1.
Kristen (speaker S2), the police-department representative, updated the board on staffing and programming: she said the Teen Police Academy begins next Monday at 9 a.m. with 10 teenagers enrolled and includes fingerprinting, internet safety and a drug-recognition presentation. She also reported the department hired a candidate who will start academy training, which lasts approximately 16 weeks.
S2 said the department purchased a small ‘pedal car’ prop and will use simulation exercises (drunk-goggles course) and demonstrations as part of outreach education for teens. S2 added that Sgt./recently promoted Lieutenant Chissellini started in the lieutenant role on July 1.
Board members responded positively and asked clarifying questions about program length and staffing expectations. No formal policy actions were taken; the items were reported as operational updates.
