Captain Mike Valencia, who said he oversees the Patrol Division for the Davis County Sheriff’s Office, presented the department’s recent enforcement and workload statistics. He told the Council patrol hours average about 900 per month but cautioned totals appear lower in recent reports because of a new GPS‑based tracking system; he said actual patrol presence is higher than reported. Valencia also summarized that monthly citations generally range from about 100 to 210, and that investigative hours totaled approximately 900.
Valencia explained that school resource officer hours and investigative hours are tracked separately and that child‑abuse and neglect reports often begin as allegations and do not necessarily result in charges; he encouraged Council members to report specific speeding or safety hotspots to request targeted enforcement.
