The incident case reports listed are just a sampling of the 24 crime index categories included in the Uniform Crime
Report and selected call classifications as requested by the City Council for tracking, therefore the totals of the
selected categories will not add up to the total number of incidents shown on the last line above.
The police department has been using the LETG Record Management system for two years now and comparisons
year to year are now reported in the same system, so the comparisons should be vastly similar given the information
is gathered and reported in the same system for each category.
Heat maps as requested by council, are able to be provided through the new RMS system and additional crime
mapping software. Additionally, public access to crime maps was rolled out in June of 2017. Links to the crime maps
are provided on the police department webpage and at www.communitycrimemap.com
Total calls for service for the month of August were down 4% from last August, year to date calls
are up by 7%. Year to date we have seen some decreases in our many of the more serious crimes,
hopefully a trend that will continue. We did have increases in robberies and burglaries, we have
made some arrests in these cases and are continuing investigations into some of the others.
