Productive Year ForChandler’s TrafficTeamBy Sgt.

In both the United Statesand Canada, the CVPI is one of the most widely used automobiles in law enforcementagencies and comprises the bulk of the Chandler’s patrol fleet. The attributes often citedare power, large interior and more trunk space. The Chevrolet Tahoes are assigned tosupervisors and K-9 units, providing more cargo room for K-9s and specialty equipment.Patrol officers use Tahoes as well.

traffic in the current year. The 2009 traffic goals are to furtherreduce the present accident rate per 1,000 population. The majoremphasis for 2009 is a reduction of DUI related crashes, from5.90% to 5.75%. Another emphasis is to increase the detectionrate of DUI drivers, from 1,460 to 1,500.

Partnerships Offer Access To ResourcesBy Cmdr. Edward UpshawThe Criminal Investigations Bureau (CIB) has continued toexpand its capabilities and relationships with other east valleyagencies by participating in the Arizona Auto Theft, the HighIntensity Drug Trafficking Area, and the East Valley FugitiveApprehension task forces. CIB also continues to participate inthe East Valley Gang Fusion Center and the Arizona CounterTerrorism Intelligence Center. Additionally, this year, CIBspearheaded the creation of an organized crime retail group.These alliances have allowed Chandler investigators to accesstechnology and resources that are used to apprehend hundredsof suspects and recover over five million dollars in drugs, assetsand bonds related to fugitive apprehensions.A Day In The Life Of A PatrolOfficerOfficer activity can be broken up by time spent on policecalls-for-service, administrative duties (i.e. report writingtime and court appearances) and uncommitted time tobe used for proactive patrol efforts. On average, here isthe breakdown:AdministrativeTime 40%Calls For ServiceTime 41%ProactivePatrol Time19%The economic downturn has reduced expected expansionsto CIB. However, the development of inter-departmentalrelationships and the use of technologies have allowedinvestigators to use less traditional methods to makeChandler a safer city to live, work, and play.aNext Generation 9-1-1By Vicki SzczepkowskiIn July 2008, a new, next-generation emergency phonesystem (E911) was installed at the Chandler PoliceDepartment by Maricopa Region 9-1-1. This new systemis a voice-over Internet protocol (IP) system that providestechnology allowing the 9-1-1 center to receive voice callsmade from a broadband Internet connection, instead of aregular phone line, and still receive caller identification andlocation information. This upgrade required replacing theexisting E911 equipment in its entirety with IP-enabledequipment. The old system, originally installed in 2002,had reached the end of its life expectancy, and replacementparts were no longer available from the manufacturer.The 9-1-1 system provides emergency assistance for callersdialing from the Chandler area. The Chandler PoliceDepartment acts as the Public Safety Answering Point(PSAP) for the City of Chandler. There are ten call-takingstations capable of answering the nine incoming 9-1-1phone lines, six of which are dedicated to calls originatingfrom cellular phones. For calls made from a landline, the9-1-1 system provides caller information including whothe phone is registered to, the registered address of caller,and the phone number. In the case of calls received froma cellular phone, the Chandler Police Department utilizesPhase II 9-1-1 which provides the emergency call takerwith the latitude and longitude of the caller in addition tothe telephone number of the originator of a wireless 9-1-1call. The Chandler Police Department receives an averageof 7,000 emergency calls per month.16
