PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Police Administration consists of the Chief of Police, three Deputy Police Chiefs, and support staff. All

functions in the Wichita Police Department are overseen by Police Administration. In addition to departmental management and coordination, the Community outreach programs and Crime Stoppers segments provide opportunities for the public to communicate with the Wichita Police Department to ensure that the Department is held to the highest standards for public safety services. These public relations activities exist to make a connection with the community using social media, traditional media, and other projects.

Giving individuals cash for their tips leads to successful investigations that allow the community to be involved in the crime solving process anonymously.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Police Administration oversees Departmental Management and Coordination of the three Divisions of

the Wichita Police Department: Field Services, Investigations, and Support Services. The Field Services Division is a multi-faceted division that provides a myriad of services. The Investigations Division is responsible for the follow-up investigations of criminal offenses, working closely with the Field Services Division and the District Attorney’s Office, and participates in all stages of case investigation and prosecution. The Support Services Division provides a variety of support services to the department to ensure the organization operates at an efficient level. The Chief of Police is responsible for the overall management of Police Department operations, ensuring the that the department keeps Wichita safe. Police Administration staff advise the City Manager regarding law enforcement matters impacting the safety and quality of life in Wichita.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The Property Crimes Program is comprised of crime-specific investigative sections, each responsible

for investigating certain classifications of crime that involve a loss of property, rather than a crime against a person. All personnel are encouraged to consider customer service their highest priority, and to conduct efforts in a professional, ethical, and compassionate manner. Case clearances for property crimes are lower than other crime types. Fewer cases are assigned to investigators compared to persons crimes; this difference is based on the severity of the crime and solvability factors. City of Wichita case clearance rates are similar to FBI benchmarks for cities with populations of 250,000 to 499,999. In 2016, 21.0% of auto thefts were cleared (FBI benchmark of 10.2%); 16.3% of burglaries were cleared (FBI benchmark of 11.3%); and 16.9% of larcenies were cleared (FBI benchmark of 19.0%).

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTIONS: Property Crimes consists of four work groups. Burglary investigates cases when there is illegal entry

into a building, both residential and non-residential, as well as vandalism (non-auto), and suspicious character cases. Larceny investigates all theft from vehicles, shoplifting, other theft (nonperson cases), stolen property, and lost/found property cases. Financial Crimes investigates all forgery, counterfeiting, bad checks, embezzlement (non-auto), fraud, and identity theft cases. Tips are provided to residents in order to prevent online identity and financial fraud. Auto Theft investigates all auto theft, embezzled auto, and vandalism to auto cases.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The Technical Services Section is a component of the Property Crimes Bureau that provides

investigative support through the analysis and processing of crime scenes and the storage of property and evidence.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTIONS: Technical Services has two components: Crime Scene Investigation and Property and Evidence.

Crime Scene Investigations investigates crimes against persons and property. After Crime Scene Investigators (CSIs) document the investigation at the scene, they return to the laboratory to process evidence and complete reports. Scenes are documented by photographing (from the outside in) and then diagramming and measuring the scene and evidence. The next step is for any and all evidence associated with the case to be collected. Evidence includes latent prints, which are processed to compare to known prints of named individuals for identification or exclusion. Unidentified prints are entered into the systems for potential matches. There are 1,800 to 2,100 cases investigated by CSIs each year, and 3,000 prints examined by the Latent Prints Section. Crime Scene Investigators also provide expert testimony in court. The Property and Evidence Section provides intake, storage, handling, and disposal of evidence, found property, and personal property for the Police Department at the Rounds & Porter warehouse. Inventory is kept by logging all property in a computer database. The length of time that property is held depends on the type of case and the statute of limitations for the particular criminal offense. The Property and Evidence Section coordinates the impounded vehicle program, sending notifications to owners of impounded vehicles. Notification letters are sent to rightful owners to reclaim property, but in cases where property has not been reclaimed the Police Department auctions property online.

* Due to the Finance ERP upgrade, the Warrant Office budget is combined with Security Services in the 2020 Revised Budget

** The Warrant Office is eliminated in the 2021 Proposed Budget.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Security Services provides 24-hours a day, seven days a week physical and electronic surveillance

security services for the City Hall Campus and other City-operated facilities. Personnel are physically assigned to City Hall and the Advanced Learning Library. Electronic surveillance includes: access control, alarm monitoring, and visual surveillance of facilities and a select number of outdoor venues via video camera. As the City continues its Zero-Based Budgeting process, the Police Department will take a more active role in procuring and coordinating security services needs of the City, particularly of more routine security services. In 2021, the City’s Warrant Office will be eliminated and this function will be absorbed into Municipal Court. For 2020, these positions are included in the Security Services budget.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Security Services personnel screen visitors, provide patrols, and provide a number of customer support

functions for departments with locations at City Hall. City Hall screening is provided by civilian security officers and security screeners. Other services include the issuance and tracking of employee access cards, setting and removing privileges for access to restricted areas, reporting and data retrieval, and physical security when needed. Examples of locations where video monitoring occurs include City Hall, the Fire Regional Training Center, Recreation Centers, the Central Maintenance Facility, the Animal Shelter, Water and Sewer facilities, the Keeper of the Plains, and the Water Walk Fountains. The Security Assessment and Advisory Team (SAAT) is comprised of the WPD Security Supervisor as well as staff from Public Works & Utilities and the Information Technology Department. SAAT coordinates the installation, maintenance, and operation of access control, alarm, and camera systems at City of Wichita facilities. As a part of the Zero-Based Budgeting process, security monitoring (with the exception of the Airport) is being considered for further centralization and standardization. This approach will result in a more systematic approach to procuring systems and developing replacement schedules for equipment. It will also allow for a more strategic approach to deploying the most appropriate and cost effective tools at each location.
