 BILL: Forward Project Safe

              Title: Forward Safe - Stop  Use of Quotas for Police 

               Evaluation/Productivity or Merit Pay or Promotion 

 (a) Explanation of terminology:  Quotas - police quotas are formal and informal measures that require a police officer to issue a particular number of citations or make a certain number of arrests. Quotas are a “perverse incentive” If you require a certain number of tickets or arrests. Officers will be incentivized fot find arrests, Officers 

Section I: Whereas police quotas are declared illegal for determining the effectiveness of policing or for evaluation of police work 

The rationale behind prohibiting quotas is that they can lead to unwarranted citations, undermining public trust and potentially leading to discriminatory enforcement. ACLU chapters in states like Rhode Island have advocated for bans to ensure police prioritize public safety over revenue generation. 

.New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin have no quota laws.  These laws aim to prevent officers from feeling pressured to issue citations based on a set number rather than on legitimate law enforcement needs. discourage or prohibit using ticket quotas as the sole basis for promotions, demotions, or disciplinary actions. Abolish the "point system similar to Ogden, Utah, which some officers feel is a quota system in disguise.

Section 1. Police are to use crime maps to determine to determine crime locations

Section 1: Police are to change name to Public Safety

Section 2: Police are to collaborate with community groups to develop crime prevention strategies. Provide bi-monthly reports

Crime prevention strategies encompass a wide range of approaches aimed at reducing crime rates and improving community safety. These strategies can be broadly categorized into primary prevention (addressing root causes), secondary prevention (targeting high-risk individuals and locations), and tertiary prevention (rehabilitation and reintegration). Effective strategies often involve a combination of these approaches, tailored to specific community needs. https://www.ojp.gov/pdffiles/171676.pdf

Section 3. Police are to develop and use AI technology to prevent crime. The technology is to include:

Audio Visual CCTV; work with community groups to enable security cameras on all residential and commercial structures.

Signage in multiple zipcode areas denoting surveillance zones

High crime areas are AI powered public safety robots/robotic dogs 

Public Safety/Community groups are to develop crime maps for each zip code. The map will show the type of crime committed by street/area and calculate crime rate.  This is for residential and commercial safety and crime prevention 

Crime rate for each zip code will enable the determination of public safety action to prevent theft/break-ins and where to deploy public safety personnel more effectively.

Evaluation Crime rates are to determine the evaluation of public safety effectiveness, police evaluations and compensation.
