Well, as the saying goes, “Time Flies”. It has been five months since I last sent out a department update on how things are going. As I mentioned in July, we were working to fill our open positions and add additional SRO’s in partnership with the Maize School District. I am happy to report that we were able to get that completed. We are one of the few departments around that have School Resource Officers working in schools from grades 5 through 12. The six SRO’s have been doing amazing work in connecting with the youth in our schools and keeping our schools safe. I want to give a big thank you to the City Council and City Administration for their support on this endeavor. Officer Faber and Morales graduated from KLETC in November and are currently going through Field Training. They both should be out on their own by the end of January. So, if you see them out tell them hello and congratulations. As I mentioned in July, we are trying to optimize our use of technology to keep our community safe. We have updated our Axon technology and as we speak, FLOCK is being installed in strategic locations to enhance safety and investigations. I am glad to say we are fully staffed, and I am blessed that we have such an amazing team of police professionals. As I have told many people, before working for the Maize PD, my impression was that Maize had a professional and dedicated team of law enforcement professionals working here. I am proud to say, now that I have been here for nine months, my impression was spot on. I am excited for what the next year holds in store. Jeff Weible Chief of Police Maize, Kansas
