<br /> Naw Position Form <br /> <br /> Page 2 <br /> 3. How will new position increase the efficiency/effectiveness of operations? (Use <br /> productivity measurements where possible.: <br /> The additional six officers in the school districts will enhance our Community Policing <br /> Program, and respond in a more timely manner to school related offenses such as <br /> truancy, burglaries, drugs, weapons. assaults, and other behavior related infractions <br /> affecting the school environment. <br /> The officers will also work closely with the school administrators to develop or <br /> enhance their existing Safety and Emergency Preparedness Program, which will <br /> improve our response with the various schools. <br /> This will reduce the already thinly stretched officers in the six complex districts with <br /> the added manpower. <br /> 4. Alternatives that were considered in lieu of new position. (Have technological <br /> changes been considered?J <br /> Creating the six positions from the onset with County funds, however, we recognize <br /> the current budgetary constraints. <br /> No technological changes were considered, since the philosophy and school <br /> contact needs to be done on a face to face basis for effective communication. <br /> 5. Why were manpower needs not planned through budgetary process? <br /> Not during this fiscal year. We will, however, put the positions in for the 2005-2006 <br /> fiscal year, as required by the grant. <br /> 6. List other rationale or pertinent statements and data: <br /> Both our DARE (Drug Awareness Resistance Education) and PAGE (Positive <br /> Alternatives and Gang Education) programs have been highly successful in the <br /> schools, and we believe that this new program will be as successful. Upon losing fhe <br /> grant funding for the PAGE program, we are considering the incorporation of all <br /> three programs into the new positions. <br /> OCS CP-002 (2/93) <br /> <br />
