DAHLMEYER TELEPHONE 746 -7474 CHIEF OF POLICE VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA P. O. Box 322 JUPITER, FLORIDA September II, I962 To: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the Tequesta Village Council. From: Wiard P. Dahlmeyer, Chief of Police, Tequesta, Florida. Sub: Anticipated budget and public improvement program for the Village of Tequesta Police Department (1963). In preparing the anticipated budget for the Village Police Department and integrated services for the year of 1963, S have endeavored to take into consideration our current problems and those to be anticipated with continual building develope- ment and growth. Many areats of concern have been considered by your reporter prior to the preparation of this report and I will endeavor through this medium to familiarize you with some of the current and anticipated problems: assoaciated with the overall program for police protection, service and security for our community. Whe approximate number of acres within ourbjurisdiction is six hundred and sixty five with an approximate total of twenty three hard road miles. This does not include highway coverage along U.S. Route No. I. There are now about two hundred and forty five private dwellings within our juridication with an anticipated developement of from one hundred and fifty to two hundred during the coming year. Commercial enterprises, stores businesses account for at least twenty installations, All of these areals, both dwellings, roadways and businessplaces must be patrolled, observed and checked on a continuing pattern if the maxima benefits of police protection and security are to be developed. Continued. Page Two The total area which 1 have described is under protective patrol coverage limited to six hours during the hours of darkness. Our nightime patrolman is employed to pe:rformduties between the hours of 10:00 P.M � and 4 :00 A.M. five days a week. On the alternate days i do perform the assigned nightime patrol duties in addition to my regular daytime assignments. We have our share of police and nuisance problems. They are taken in stride as a part of our routine duty performance. The extenbion and growth of our community will of course present new and re -occu ring problems. We will endeavor to take each into individual consideration providing proper evaluation and legal disposition. In order to provide full time twenty four hour coverage as desired seven day a week police protective activity in our village community, sufficient police personal must be employed. It is not reasonable to suggest that complete protective police services can be provided on a limited basis with insufficient personnel. There must not be any lapse of time during which active coverage is not being performed or is available for immediate response. Since it is my obligatory purpose to provide maximum police and security protection to all citizens of our community and its properties, I do take the liberty of making the following recommend- ations. a. Employment of the nightime patrolman on a full time basis, eight hours per duty shift# six days each week. b. Employment of a second patrolman on a full time basis, eight hours per duty shift, six days a week. This is the minimum number of men which would enable us to perform twenty four hour coverage. In addition to this extention of our services I would continue to work an a seven day basis so as to provide a regular day off duty for each patrolman. We do have a retired Pa. State Police trooper living in Tequesta. This man was a member of the Pa. State Police Force for twenty three years and one of their top men. He may be a vailable for assignment. Continued. Page Three It is a privilage and a pleasure to work for and to represent the Village of Tequesta. I will continue to work for the benefit Of our citizens and community always. It is therefore, my intention to continue my program for maximtLm vigilance and the enforcement of necessary privacy for this community. I respectfully submit the contents of this report for your approbation. Respectfully submitted: wiard r. Dahlmeyer Chief of Police Village of Tequesta Florida.
