Summary
Deputy Chief Shannon Trevino reported traffic citations rose from 17 to 57 year-over-year, highlighted enhanced DUI enforcement after blood‑draw warrant training, and outlined outreach including 'Coffee with a Cop' and a planned bike-and-safety rodeo; she also raised potential drone and noise ordinance policy issues.
Deputy Chief of Police Shannon Trevino told the council that traffic citations nearly tripled from 17 to 57 compared with the same period last year, attributing the rise primarily to speeding enforcement. She said DUI enforcement has been enhanced following recent training on blood‑draw warrants.
Trevino described community engagement work—Child Abuse Prevention Month activities, a planned 'Coffee with a Cop' initiative, and an upcoming bike-and-safety rodeo—and raised potential future policy considerations about drone regulations and a local noise ordinance in response to late‑night lake noise complaints; the minutes record no formal action on either policy item.
