Police report: April SWAT overtime, RMS migration timeline and e-scooter enforcement draft
Summary
Police Chief Daniel Reynolds reported an April uptick in overtime linked to SWAT courthouse security during a recent murder trial and said the County will reimburse the borough for that overtime in this instance. He also outlined a planned RMS data download on May 23 and a potential go-live date of June 20, and said Assistant Chief Hoffman is preparing a draft ordinance to address e-scooters and bikes.
Police Chief Daniel Reynolds updated the council on several department matters. He said April overtime increased because the SWAT team provided additional security at the Bradford County Courthouse during a recent murder trial, and Reynolds said the borough will be reimbursed for that overtime in this instance though such reimbursements are not guaranteed.
Reynolds provided a timeline for the police department’s new records-management system (RMS): a third download of historical data is planned for May 23 and the department aims to go live on June 20. He noted the TRAX component of the RMS is functioning and that remaining issues will be addressed as the system is implemented.
Responding to a question from Councilor Cori Belles about suspicious-activity numbers rising in April, Reynolds said the increase is related to more people being out with warmer weather. He also said Assistant Police Chief Hoffman has researched ordinances elsewhere and is preparing a draft local ordinance to address enforcement of e-scooters and bikes in the borough.
