Fire and police give monthly reports; police note possible camera-count data error
Summary
Fire staff reported December response times and resource plans for the barbecue; police presented the November report, recognized reserve officers for holiday outreach, and flagged a likely data-capture error in the camera system vehicle counts for investigation.
Chief Harvey delivered the fire department update, saying the station handled 28 calls in December with an average dispatch handling time of 37 seconds and average travel time of 6 minutes, 25 seconds. He also said the department scheduled a ladder truck and a rescue vehicle for static displays at the upcoming town barbecue.
Police staff reviewed the November report and noted an inconsistent figure in the automated camera system showing approximately 10,000 captures, which appeared to be about 10% of a typical monthly total and prompted a follow-up with the vendor, Flock. The police representative also recognized two reserve officers for distributing holiday meals and gifts and recounted a recent life-saving CPR response by corporal Dominguez. Council thanked the departments for their holiday work and asked staff to continue special patrols at trouble spots called out by residents.
