Fenton police report shows slight rise in calls, introduces new midnight shift sergeants
Summary
Captain Matt Pleviak reported 844 calls for service and 17 arrests for the prior month, introduced new midnight-shift Sergeants Tripp and Mestemacher, and discussed traffic studies using a newly serviced radar trailer.
Captain Matt Pleviak told the Board the department responded to 844 calls for service in the reporting period (compared with 754 in the prior month) and handled 1,217 self-initiated assignments; arrests numbered 17. He introduced new midnight-shift Sergeants Tripp and Mestemacher and provided patrol and citation statistics.
Pleviak explained the traffic study deployments — a radar trailer on Fabick Drive and stealth radar on Villa Gran Way — and said battery replacement allowed longer study cycles, which may account for unexpectedly higher volumes recorded at some locations. Alderman Maserang asked why Villa Gran Way reported higher counts than Uthoff and Pleviak cited the equipment cycle length as the likely cause.
