Memorandum

To:Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
From:Honorable Councilmember Jeffrey Rodriguez
Subject:Town of Miami Lakes Police Reserve Program
Date:12/4/2018

Recommendation:

Analyze whether the Miami Lakes Police Reserve and Auxiliary Officer Program is worth reintroducing to the residents. In 2013, the Town issued an announcement on its website that the Town was looking for Reserve and Auxiliary Officers. The program is administered by Miami-Dade County Police Department, and is made up of residents who volunteer to supplement the Department's efforts in the prevention of crime or general enforcement of laws.


I would recommend staff to analyze whether it is worth reintroducing or advertising this program through social media and other advertising means to reach qualified Miami Lakes residents who may be interested in joining this program.

Fiscal Impact: Small (no residents have expressed desire in the program)
