(CCPD)
Strategies and Evaluation
• A detailed list of the crime control and crime
prevention strategies to be supported by the
district.
The mission statement for the City of Baytown's Police Department states, "Our
mission is to enhance the quality of life in the City of Baytown by working
cooperatively with the citizens within the framework of the U.S. Constitution. Our
mission will be accomplished by enforcing laws, educating the public, preserving
the peace, reducing citizen apprehension, and providing a safe environment for
our community by vigorously eliminating the criminal element." The Crime
Control and Prevention District (CCPD) will incorporate strategies designed to
enhance public safety in Baytown.
Item 1 —Ton (10) Police Officers
The CCPD will provide additional resources through increased manpower that is
to needed to target specific issues in the community. History has shown that a
targeted response can be the most efficient use of these increased resources.
The hot spots of crime issues (Northwood, Bergeron Park, Highway 146, Garth
Road and IH-10 corridors, etc) call for a large quick reaction force that can
address specific issues as they arise.
CCPD funding will provide personnel for specific targeted responses to selected
criminal activity. The additional personnel will be hired to create a patrol
Targeted Response Team or "Hot Spot" group. Those officers will be used at
different times and in different geographical areas of the city as "Hot Spots"
occur. They will be used as a unit to saturate problems for quick resolution.
Rather than responding to the results of criminal activity, the officers will be able
to prevent or curtail the crimes and to quickly take the offenders into custody.
The team may also be used to replace a complete Patrol shift for short periods of
time to allow patrol officers to attend mandated training. Officers are required to
attend 40 hours of training every two (2) years. Having the ability to pull entire
shifts off of the street to attend training will insure that the mandated
requirements are met without the need for additional overtime.
Another need for additional personnel will be satisfied through these funds by
providing additional manpower to the existing DOT unit. The additional
manpower will allow for increased inspections of commercial vehicles traveling
through our city.

Item 2 —Vehicles
Funding will be used to add additional vehicles to the department for these new
personnel to use during the performance of their duties.
Item 3— Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) Program
CCPD funding would be used to replace the aging laptop computer system used
in the patrol vehicles as Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs). The department has
used MDTs since 2000 and currently operates 71 units. There is currently no
program in place for funding of this in the Police Department budget.

The computers provide a means by which better communications can be
provided to the officer in the field. Rapid communications and access to
computer information makes for a better informed officer and a safer environment
for the units in the field.
• The method of annually evaluating the
effectiveness and efficiency of the individual crime
control and crime prevention strategies.
A key legislative requirement of a proposed Crime Control and Prevention District
is the inclusion of a mandatory evaluation of the effectiveness and efficiency of
each crime control and prevention strategy. This process builds accountability
with the program, assuring voters that their funds are being expended both
productively and competently. Performance Indicators will be monitored and
reported quarterly to the CCPD Governing Board of Directors. The following
performance measurements will be the basis of evaluating each strategy.
Performance Measurement—Targeted Response "Hot Spot" Team
1. Adult Arrests versus same period in 2006
2. Aggravated Assault reported versus same period in 2006
3. Auto Theft reported versus same period in 2006

2. Motor Vehicle Inspections versus same period in 2006
Performance Measurement— Laptop Replacement Program
