<br />show the weekly numbers for cases assigned (thefts, burglaries, frauds, etc.), arrests made, cases filed with the DA's Office, Cases
<br />cleared, Vehicles inspected, any altered vehicles identified, number of 68-A inspections completed, agency assists, number of stolen
<br />vehicles recovered with values, and the number of stolen parts recovered with values. A Google Spreadsheet will also be completed
<br />by each investigator to track their stats as they relate to the Goals, Strategies, and Activities selected above. The Task Force
<br />Commander will review the data collected against data collected by each participating agencies reporting systems for accuracy. The
<br />Task Force Commander with then combine it into a monthly report. Each quarter the data will be compared to the project goals set
<br />forth in this grant and uploaded. This will allow the Task Force to ensure we are meeting our goals and if not, easily take corrective
<br />action to complete each goal. At the end of the grant cycle the end of year report is compiled using these numbers. It will be
<br />compared to the Goals, Strategies, and Activities to determine if all goals that were set were actually met. This will be reviewed to
<br />determine if future goals need to be adjusted.
<br />4.2 Provide any other suggested measures that would better reflect the law enforcement or prevention work that the proposed program
<br />will perform. If the suggested measure fits into one of the stated goals above please indicate.
<br />The Northeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force will continue to provide assistance to all agencies in the coverage area with investigating
<br />auto theft, title fraud, insurance fraud, theft of parts, theft of trailers, theft of farming equipment, and burglary of motor vehicles. The
<br />Task Force will also continue to educate the public on ways to help reduce the above listed crimes from ever occurring. The Task
<br />Force plans on scheduling several non-TCOLE short training sessions pertaining to auto theft and related crimes to agencies in our
<br />coverage area. TCOLE Certified Task Force Investigators will teach at minimum one TCOLE certified class that will be open to all law
<br />enforcement in our coverage area which will cover stolen vehicle recognition and identification. This course will include hands-on
<br />experience with vehicles, trailers, etc. being identified. This will greatly benefit the rural counties in our coverage area that have little to
<br />no training in this area.
