my staff for what they have done you know it was nice to learn of the news articles that the maui crime is going down and i credit that to the s and some of the challenges we are facing but also what are we going to do to help with that one idea came up is to to have a c p also prior to presenting him to his office so we still have some work to do before we have the final yesterday i was attending a breakfast with crimes police patrol and then later on we know and even proactive patrol sometimes has a challenge because even the folks on the other s pretty much know ok here they come in here they go ok now let's take advantage of the water we had down to we we're looking at more of a direct patrol where we take the statistics that we learn homelessness though we learned that with the party of community because we we do have our community police officer to address some of the long term issues in the community but being that community and the last thing is working in partnership with them and what we are trying to do is to instill the trust in the community that if you see something ca recognition really goes of the patrol officers they do the bulk of the work as far as going to the calls for answering calls for service and doing a really excellent job in conducting their pollution our investigation by gathering evidence interviewing neighbors and just doing a really awesome job as far as the first preliminary investigation working hand in hand with the detectives so it really starts at the ground and they're the ones identified because they're so familiar with the beat characters in a particular area they can really things like that so really a lot of critical so the patrol offices and our city detectives you have your highlights before you unfortunately you only have a touch of the highlights the stats that's really taking an investigative services service bureau  a black mercedes had driven up next to him pulled up next to him and tried to persuade him to come in the car and he actually told the girls come with us your mom and there are with us so if they were trying to you know basically kidnap the girls  terrifies you to get them walking they drove around continued to ask girls please come in the car and they said no and one of the poor people in the car saw a parent nearby and i say his parents get out here so they took off the girls ended up going to school and this week is forensic science week it's national forensic week it starts on seventeen to the twenty third it's the fourth year where the nation is recognizing the efforts of our forensic practitioners and this is the first here from all repeated in the first of many to come that credit tony earls who is our police evidence specialist did an outstanding job this is this is his baby he thought about doing this he put it all together and tony has a history of  organizing large events and conventions that's that's what he did back in virginia and so i know it's going to be good but when i showed up i mean was just beyond good it was just totally awesome the coordination efforts with the schools  the university f b i we just had twenty three exhibits and the students that came in just you could see their eyes just open wide with the possibilities of looking into or moving into this area forensic because we're it's going to get bigger and you know we don't we know that we need this technology because evidence doesn't lie and people can change the stories but evidence is pretty straightforward but it was a really fantastic job by tony earls and fortunate to have a permanent diaphragm there is office to come and read a proclamation from there that proclamation was posted on the national website for c it says the national forensic science technology center in florida so just a really if he wasn't driving a car as an accomplice to you know the kidnap i would you know i would think that was pretty strong evidence right there possible district in that effort we partnered with the state department of transportation and national high we've seen traffic safety administration in a drive sober or get pulled over camping drives sober or get pulled to prevent traffic crashes have resulted in death injury and economic loss in our community due to impaired driving during this eighteen day campaign which started august sixteenth iran through september fourth police set up twenty eight intoxication control checkpoints in various locations throughout mali county in addition increased police increased dedicated traffic enforcement saturation patrols using both mark two last year this year we had eighty five mobile electronic devices cell phone citations issued last year there were sixty eight there also nine hundred thirty one miscellaneous traffic violations citations issued this year as compared to seven hundred four last year and the total traffic citations issued this campaign was sixteen hundred as compared to one thousand nine hundred ninety seven last year on the other hand i was coming back from kenya the other night and they say well they pulled me and everybody else over on hanson road and the young kid looks in and he goes home taking out my license he goes ok so you v the other day so he watches and you know i said ok and this is all you have a nice day and i said just remember you said to me that i said to web site saying where the police are what they're doing it you know if they drove properly and they do have you know and didn't drink and you're out there to protect the public and protect everybody it's a great thing that you're doing and i am one that would like to see more i know that it's very expensive in that you are getting subsidized but it's a great thing and it's really really something that what you do thank you very much tomorrow and another was start on the two we're second at this time there are a few more going through the process and we're hoping to have a nice and when you start with us our emergency you can take months because part of that process in addition to the interview we also do a background i do complete background investigation on them to make sure there is no problems with the application we also do a holograph will cain is qualified or are qualified then he goes to the medical talking and we have someone there so it's a very very long process so some of it is out of our control you know when they go to the polygraph or the psychologist or even through the medical board so there to the other side attachment included as part of the e mails was for the c n p with the balance is included that for the twenty seventeen c a p projects there's a record renovation which was completed we have on an incinerator project consultation fee for the parking lot renovation of the legal police station and also looking into the dispatch renovation so that's kind of the overall for the twenty seven continue providing balances of course in every meeting and updates for the staffing report on as mentioned right ninety three percent for the storm and seventy six percent civilian with of course the dispatch personnel since then we've offered we need to hire three more police officers and another one october second so that's going to be in addition to what's reported to this percentage so we have four more on and then we have other ones that are in various stages as we discussed so we have another fo in the background stage another one that they just completed the polygraph on the more they just finished the site and another one the physical so there's the various stages that the heat go through so it's all contingent on you know if they pass one stage then they move on to the next and so forth so that they'll be part of the eighty seven through group classes farzana the dispatcher's kind of what i wanted to bring up right now is some the news  it a ten year low for unemployment so we're competing for a very limited on the applicant pool so with that some of the efforts that we've been doing with her and proving specifically with dispatchers and in conjunction with  that we're going to be doing job fairs so they dispatched they're going to have a table set up at the university of hawaii this thursday september twenty first they're going to set up also the maui county fair they'll also have a table set up trying to promote the position and the job in trying to get out we can still come in and also there's another john kerry queen called mama center in october so those are some of the efforts that are being made by the department and department to support the recruiting efforts and getting more dispatchers and same with the what we had done what they wanted for the property is more than what is in our praise for so we have to go back to the drawing board there were other properties their plan for the next six years to see where we fit in there right now being there we have the potential new owners we waiting to see what will happen and then  public service organization it's not a revenue generating you know like i said i hope that they would take into consideration that the service that the police department provides for the community would but i'd like to see someone i could back to the community so so what the department is doing besides recruitment what we're doing now is we have to reach out to former dispatchers who work for the county and we call shared with their directors and  them to come back come in and shift for a department and then the department will pay the premium of the employees so we are doing that we are also open to the rest of the department i crewmen do you guys reach out to the mainland to other departments trying to entice other officers that are qualified to come to maui to serve the were i would count probably at least thirty percent of the graduates were actually from somewhere on the mainland is so obviously that's how you know it 's working i guess whatever y possible to go and keep that november fifth date to fly in early in the morning fly back at the end of a bit but in order to do it at the meeting would have to take place during the middle of the lunch hour all other in that this meeting will have to be rescheduled so i'm assuming that's the feeling of the commission that we will reschedule it yeah when you care when you say new schedule you need another month away or within a couple of days when it was  it would be january we would have to steal overnight best test that's your feeling as well ok so since well since it is not an option to fly in in the morning and fly back in there that night we have to  with it so that's our problem anyway so in my mind i'm thinking two reasons for that the center would be out of the question one it's close to the holidays and to address only thirty days later  january might be an option i don't know how and then there's the coronation with command staff as well but at least this way it's sixty days later amy knows the challenges that she's already face community when dave pencil that out sometimes it's the same cost or even cheaper to charter a plane then to talk you know pay for overnight accommodations i'm not or usual travels through a commission called raising his lower this week well we'll see how that works out but the intention was back in earlier this year was a kid twenty seventeen or smoker twenty five how come she can't do like for right away you know call to the hotels find out what's available then knowing those states lock the states in or go out at the hotels and you just tell them well  can call the hotels and say what dates you have open and then when you go to the county and then you know all the other agencies and say well these are the things we're looking at how you got approved yet you know instead of waiting for them to approve and then go look for the dates and then like you said it's going to read which amy has done now and then and and it's a it's a process you know learning process as well that's what we know what january is a possibility and february is not  you know two to two that's why we have chosen to stick with that third one is that a month and then go from there we need commitment from the nine commission members then there's a secretary then there is corporat evaluation form and the peer review amy had some clear goals corrections those will give me we all saw it via e mail anybody has any for being on our committee we since the last meeting we did not make real substantial sheryl changes to the missions for this slated to be sent off and let me also stress that it's going to be confidential or it will be slated to be sent all dated the f it will also be sent off with the self interest album that we give them much easier once we get the same coffees will be made for each of the commissioners and subsequently proceed from there with your discuss with themselves regarding the budget without having bowman i mean that's in the well i'm i'm not familiar with the school of your subcommittees work so i can't of discussion regarding your within the commission members regarding the budget the e mail or any other i will grant you not because we don't want to run the risk of right along i was able to participate in that i wanted to and i sent it you know much too cheap to give accommodations to the officers who were i was observed handling a very difficult situation of a very intoxicated individual who was basically screaming yelling at the police officer that one particular officer and  extremely calm through the whole process there were seven other officers i was backing him up and i i saw that day everything got defused he come down to the issue
