PROPOSAL FOR POLICE SERVICES

The Township of South Frontenac

Contract Policing Proposal

Prepared by: A/Sgt Gilbert Cadieux Ontario Provincial Police

Municipal Policing Bureau 17 December 2014

Table of Contents f

Executive Summary …………………………………………………………………….3 OPPAnnual Billing Statement…………………………………………………..^ OPPContacts………………………………………………………………………………….8

Executive Summary The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has over 100 years of experience in providing effective

community-based policing and protection throughout Ontario. The OPP has provided municipal police services under contract forover60 years and currently maintains contracts with over 140 communities across Ontario.

The Township of South Frontenac requested a costing for OPP municipal policing. This

proposal is based on the Township of South Frontenac paying an amount equal to the sum of the Township of South Frontenac’s allocated portion of the OPP’s total municipal policing base and calls for service costs and the costs for overtime, deaning/caretaker, accommodation, court

security and offender transport as applicable. Where a municipality chooses to receive police sen/ices from the OPP pursuant to a contract, the OPP will provide the level of police services required to provide adequate and effective policing, including providing the services set out in Regulation 3/99, Adequacy and Effectiveness of Police Services under the Police Services Act. This proposal reflects the integrated policing concept, incorporating a police services contract for the Township of South Frontenac with OPP highway patrol services and provincial

responsibilities under one administration. The Frontenac OPP Detachment will remain as the Administration/Operations Centre. The resources will be deployed to the municipality from this facility.

The Frontenac Detachment Commander will be responsible to oversee all aspects of service

delivery. The detachment management including StaffSergeantand Sergeant/ Platoon Leaders as applicable would provide assistance and supervision to members of the Frontenac Detachment.

In order to provide a location for the police and public to interact, and to facilitate the delivery of

police services in a community, the OPPencourages the establishment of Community Policing Offices (CPOs). Where such offices exist they are usually equipped with telephone and computer capabilities for use by officers assigned to the municipality. Any decision on the establishment of a CPO in the Township of South Frontenac rests entirely with township council and any associated costs will be the responsibility of the township. It is recommended that any CPO located within the township be maintained. In consultation with the Police Services Board it is the intent that all existing community service

programs and community policing committees will be maintained.

Any new community service program considered may be implemented after consultation with the Township of South Frontenac Council, the Township of South Frontenac Police Services Board and the Frontenac Detachment Commander.

When a municipality chooses to receive police services from the OPP undercontract, the OPP

will ensure that the municipality receives adequate and effective police services in accordance with the Police Services Act and regulations. The shared infrastructure of the OPP broadens local access to resources, expertise, solutions, training and management without duplicating services. The Township of South Frontenac will continue to benefit as additional staff are readily available from within the Frontenac OPP Detachment as well as neighboring detachments and regions, should the need arise.

The Township of South Frontenac will be required to establish a Police Services Board, as mandated by Section 10 of the Police Services Act that will generally determine objectives and priorities for police services within the community, after consultation with the Detachment Commander. The Commissioner is committed to ensuring that the Detachment

Commander of the Frontenac OPP Detachment responds appropriately to the Board’s

advice and priorities in a manner consistent with the Board’s identified concerns, expectations and needs.

It is long-standing OPP policy and practice to be accountable to the communities we serve. The Commander of the Frontenac OPP detachment, or designee, will report to the Police Services

Board on a regular basis, as per the direction of the Board. The OPP is experienced in being accountable to the municipalities we serve. With over 100 Contracts currently in place and future contracts pending, there is great emphasis placed on OPP accountability to Police Services Boards.

The OPP is required to provide provincial level emergency response that can oe mobilized in times of emergency, disaster or a specialized investigative need. The OPP meets such emergent needs, on an on-call, as-needed basis, by deploying small numbers of officers from multiple locations and assignments, both provincial and municipal. During such times, the OPP is responsible to ensure that appropriate resources remain in place to make certain the municipality receives adequate and effective police services in accordance with the Police Se/v/ces Act and regulations. The use of OPP officers in cases where there is a provincial obligation to respond will be accounted for as part of the billing model. If the Township of South Frontenac chooses to accept an OPP contract for its policing service, the Frontenac OPP Detachment will assign resources, focusing on meeting the Township of South Frontenac’s unique policing needs. Value for the Township of South Frontenac

.

Assurance of adequacy and effectiveness of police services;

.

Dedication to resolving community issues through local involvement and community policing committees;

Availability of additional staffing support from neighboring detachments, regional headquarters and general headquarters;

Seamless access to a comprehensive infrastructure and specialized services; and Assists the Detachment Commander in determining the local policing prionties and

objectives through the Township of South Frontenac’s Police Services Board. Based on, among other things, an estimate of salary and benefit costs, the policing cost for 2015 associated with this proposal is $2. 902. 091. The annual billing statement is set out in the attachment to this proposal.

Please Note:

Not included in this proposal are:

. The cost of maintaining the Police Services Board . The costs associated with establishing and maintaining Community Policing Office(s)

. Any applicable revenues accruing to the municipality as a result of police activity (*Note - This proposal expires six months from the date of presentation to Council. At that time the costs identified in the proposal will be subject to review and revision where necessary.)
