APPENDIX A Continued <br />Total Hours on shift Administrative Time per Officer per year (line 34) <br />This is computed by multiplying the hours per shift by the approximate number of shifts the officer <br />will work during the year. The approximate number of shifts is computed by taking the total shift <br />hours, subtracting all leave and training time and dividing by the number of hours per shift. <br />Total Hours Available per Officer (line 36) <br />This is computed by subtracting all unavailable time from the gross hours available. <br />Percent Proactive Time Desired (line 39) <br />Expressed as a percent, this is the amount of proactive or preventive patrol time desired for the <br />shift. Most cities fall between 40 to 50 percent. Those falling below 40 percent have great difficulty <br />with proactive community policing or enforcement activities. <br />Output Items <br />Community Generated Workload (line 42) <br />The total number of hours consumed in responding to calls for service and making <br />necessary arrests. <br />Proactive Time (line 44) <br />The amount of time necessary for proactive activities. This is computed by multiplying the total <br />Community Generated Workload requirements by the percentage of Proactive time desired (line 42 <br />x line 39) <br />Total Shift Workload Requirement (line 46) <br />The total number of staff hours needed to adequately cover the shift with the stated desired amount <br />of proactive time allowed. Lines 42 and 44 added. <br />Number of Officers Needed (line 48) <br />The number of total officers needed needing to be assigned to a shift given their availability. <br />Page 53 <br />
