The data used for these computations will change. The data used included calls <br />for service in a 9 month operational period. Since calls for service can fluctuate from year to year, <br />further evaluation would have to be conducted when a full year of data is available, and subsequent <br />years after that. <br />In looking at the other random residential areas checked for calls for service, a policy of establishing a <br />minimum of 6 or more times the average calls for service in a given 500 feet range or address range <br />would suggest the addition of a street light and the additional city expense of operating a street light. <br />Additional lighting can help in deterring criminal activity. <br />Bob Hundley <br />Interim Chief of Police <br />. 000240 <br />
