This agenda has been prepared in collaboration with Ci�y Manager poug Reeder. BACKGROUND The idea of a joint meeting was proposed by Mayors Willson and Lampi several months ago as a way of fostering continued positive relations between the local governments and citizens of our two communities. Given the long history and close proximity of the two cities, ongoing dialogue and cooperation appears essential to our continued success. Recent issues, particularly in the area of increasing violent crimes, reinforce the importance of continued cooperation between the two cities. Due to the dinner time of the meeting, light refreshments will be provided. COUNCIL DISCUSSION ISSUES Highway 252 Improvements Staff from Brooklyn Park will provide an overview of improvement plans for State Highway 252. The congestion on this highway has been an increasing concern for several years. The long- term solution in all likelihood will impact and require the involvement of Brooklyn Center. The City of Brooklyn Park is interested in describing these issues and concerns and encouraging Brooklyn Center cooperation in finding a solution. Recreational Services Over the years there has been a great deal of cooperation between recreational services of Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park. Each community has benefited by this cooperation. Mr. Glasoe, Director of Community Activities, Recreation and Services for the City of Brooklyn Center, will lead a brief discussion and introduce a few ideas that we believe could expand cooperation and substantially enhance the value of recreational services for all of our citizens. Crime Reduction Proposal As a follow-up to earlier meetings with several Northwest Hennepin communities regarding increasing violent crime, the leadership team of the Brooklyn Center Police Department met with Representatives of the City of Brooklyn Park and Mr. Chuck Wexler, Executive Directar of the Police Executive Reseaxch Forum (PERF). Mr. Wexler is a renowned expert in the field of crime prevention strategies. The result of this joint meeting was a request that Mr. Wexler prepare a study proposal for the Cities of Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center. The study is intended zo identify the nature of the crime problems in the two cities and develop a comprehensive response strategy. It was agreed that after the proposal was received each City would consider participation and sharing in the funding. A copy of the proposal has been received and is attached for your information. Both Chiefs of Police will be present at the meeting to discuss this initiative, its purpose, and expected benefits. If there is agreement to go forward, then staffs should be directed to meet and reach agreement on an equitable cost-sharing agreement, as this issue has not been discussed in detail. The total project cost is $44,381. Violent Crime Reduction Initiative (DRAFT) Submitted Jointly to the Cities of Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center, Minnesota by PoIice Executive Research Forum Introduction In 2005, the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) studied a dramatic increase in violent crime that occurred in Minneapolis. The report noted that the epicenter of violence was on the northern side of the city. As part of its study, PERF analyzed the causes of crime in Minneapolis and proposed strategies to address the issues that were identified. The Minneapolis Police Department produced a comprehensive violent crime reduction strategy that was credited with reducing violence, sharpening the focus on the issue, and strengthening relationships between the city's police department and other criminal justice agencies as well as the community and business leaders. The cities of Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center, located to the north of Minneapolis, have experienced similar spikes in violent crime in 2006. Though these cities are only 3.2 miles apart, they are different in some ways. Brooklyn Park is characterized as a"growing community" with a variety of development and new building taking place. Since 2000, the population has increased by 1.7 percent to 68,550 within the city's 26.1 square miles. The Brooklyn Park Police Department is a full-service agency with 85 sworn officers and an additional complement of 48 part-time or full-time civilian staffers. The department has a host of programs, including DARE, crime prevention, SWAT, crime analysis, and alcohol enforcement. Brooklyn Center is described as a"first ring" suburb of Minneapolis. Its population has decreased by 5.6 percent since 2000 to 27,551 within the city's 7.9 square miles. The Brooklyn Center Police Department is made up of 43 officers and 14 civilian employees. The department routinely analyzes crime statistics and maintains active liaison with community organizations. In other ways, Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center are similar. Unemployment rates are near or below the national average, at 3.4 percent in Brooklyn Park and 5 percent in Brooklyn Center. The racial demographics of the cities are also quite similar and both have a foreign born community that accounts for more than 10% of their population. Race Brooktyn Park Brooklyn Center White 70.3% 70.4% Black 14.3% 14.1% Asian 4.4% 6.5% Indian 1.1% 1.5% PERF Violent Crime Reduction Initiative Draft Proposal for Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center Page 1 Other 9.9% 6.5% I 'I An additional common factor is that police chiefs from both communities are reporting a dramatic increase in crime. The concerns of the police chiefs are reflected in the Uniform Crime Report statistics. The 2006 Violent Crime Index for Brooklyn Park reveals a 62.3 percent increase in reported violent crime since 2002. Brooklyn Center reported a 40.4 percent increase in violent crime for the same time period. Robberies in Brooklyn Park increased by 93 percent in just one I year-from 2005 to 2006- while Brooklyn Center had a 50.8 percent increase. Both agencies are s rce to decrease violent crime working with Minneapolis and Hennepin County to form a joint ta k fo in the three cities. The parties hope to have a full-time team of officers working together by the summer of 2007. PERF is proposing a focused project to identify the nature of the violent crime problem in Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center followed by hosting a Summit of key stakeholders to review, discuss and strategize the study's findings. Chronologically, the proj ect will be undertaken in four phases. In the first phase, PERF staff will become familiar with the cities of Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn enter and their police departments, as well as the scope of the violent crime problem in the two communities. This will be accomplished through an analysis of open-research materials as well as information provided by the cities. In the project's second phase, PERF will conduct a site visit to Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center. Additional data will be collected, and the PERF team will conduct a series of interviews with key members of the police departments, the cities' community leaders, and officials representing pertinent criminal justice agencies. 3 Based upon the information gathered in the first two phase a detailed analysis of available violent crime information will be conducted for both cities. A clear derstanding of the scope of the problem will be developed, including an assessment of current crime prevention and reduction strategies employed by the departments. Underlying conditions and other factors outside of the police departments contributing to violent crime in the cities will also be identified. This thorough evaluation will lead to the development of a comprehensive crime reduction initiative. In the final phase of the project, PERF will gather essential stakeholders to attend a one-day Crime Summit to evaluate the proposed crime-reduction strategies. Participants will come together to cultivate a common understanding of the violent crime problem in Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center, The Summit will lead to the development of an intervention to reduce violent crime and disorder in the communities, which attendees can support and commit themselves to implementing. Proiect MethodoloQv PERF will work in partnership with the Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center Police Departments to achieve the project's two objectives of conducting an analysis of violent crimes in both jurisdictions and convening a summit to engage in a moderated discussion of the study's finding and what may be done to make the communities safer. f Pro sal for Brookl Park and Brookl PERF Violent Crime Reduct�on Initiat�ve Dra t po yn yn Center Page 2 I� j Major Review of Violent Crime in Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center A thorough understanding of the police departments and an examination of the underlymg causes and conditions contributing to the recent rise in the violent crime rate are essential in developing an effective crime-reduction strategy. This project will examine the cities of Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center, the nature and extent of crime in the cities, and existing crime prevention strategies. PERF staffers will work with the Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center Police Departments, the Hennepin County District Attorney's Office, probation and parole agencies, federal agencies and other im ortant stakeholders to review crime information rosecution and conviction data, relevant P �P information on time and location of incidents, and background data on arrestees and victims. The project staff will examine connections between violent crime and naxcotics and gang activity. Importantly, we will be reaching out to officers and community members who regularly face the challenges of crime in each jurisdiction. PERF staff will conduct interviews to solicit information about the current crime reduction strategies, gathering information from officers and command staff personnel in high-cxime areas, investigators and prosecutors handling homicide and gang and drug- related cases, and probation/parole officers. PERF will include community organizations identified by the Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center Police Departments in the project, including faith-based organizations, key businesses and residents of the communities. PERF staff will help identify tactics that will encouxage the community to work with their police departments in addressing the rise in violent crime a component that is crucial to the project's success. PERF will prepare a report that summarizes the findings of the analysis. Based upon available data, the report will include such information as violent crime trends, demographical information on violent criminals and victims; chronic locations and persons involved in violent crime; weapons of choice used in acts of violence; relationships, if any, between gangs and drugs with violent crime; impact of domestic violence on the crime problem; involvement of juveniles in violent crime; and an inventory of current and available collaborations with outside agencies, private and non-profit organization to decrease violent crime. Crime Summit Any effective strategy to prevent and reduce violent crime must involve the police, the community and all criminal justice partners including city, county, state and federal agencies and community/institutional corrections. At the invitation of Chief Wade Setter and Chief Seott Bechthold, and under the moderation of PERF Executive Director Chuck Wexler, a strategic meeting of representatives from all major components of the criminal justice system and the community will be convened in the form of a one day "Violent Crime Summit." The major role of PERF Violent Crime Reduction Initiative Draft Proposal for Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center Page 3 the Summit attendees will be to identify the emerging trends, the reasons behind these increases, and solicit the stakeholders' commitment to craft a comprehensive response. The summit has been targeted for late June of 2007, and will be scheduled based on the availability of �ttendees. A candid assessment of the proposed strategies is the centerpiece of this initiative. Holding everyone accountable for their performance is vital to the project's success. The major goal of this initiative is to deliver a comprehensive crime-reduction strategy for Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center. The strengthened partnerships formed in this project will be instrumental in driving violent crime down. Any success that the project enjoys will be directly attributable to the commitment and support of the law enforcement and community stakeholders. At the conclusion of the Slunmit, PERF will provide an addendum to the report summarizing its key findings. The included Appendix A lists PERF staff projected to work on the Violent Crime Reduction Initiative for Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center. Proiect Timeline PERF anticipates that the project will require ten weeks to complete from contract signing by all parties. The .Suminit is targeted to take place during the eighth week of the project in late June 2007; the specific date will be dependent upon the availability of invitees.
