Police chief reports 3,473 calls for service in last 12 months; department notes staffing and equipment updates
Summary
Chief Jesse Hebert told the Hillsboro City Council the police department logged 3,473 calls for service over the past year, outlined traffic‑stop and arrest figures, described building HVAC and roof issues and explained a short‑term taser replacement plan.
Chief Jesse Hebert gave a month‑by‑month and category breakdown of the department’s July‑to‑June activity, saying, “So our total calls of service for that 12 months is 3,473,” and noting the department recorded 908 investigations and 423 traffic stops over the period.
Hebert described equipment and facility issues — including recurring roof leaks and a partially functioning HVAC system on half of the building — and a short‑term plan to keep taser coverage by buying used backup units while cartridge support phases out in later years. He also outlined VIN inspection revenue of $6,642 that funded department equipment purchases.
