REPORT ON A TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE STUDY OF THE MANPOWER REQUIREMENTS AND DISTRIBUTION, ORGANIZATION, CRIMINAL AND CIVIL PROCESS RECORDS, PERSONNEL RECORDS, AND TRAINING IN THE EAU CLAIRE COUNTY (WI) SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.
Abstract
A THREE-DAY ON-SITE VISIT IN JULY 1973 AFFORDED THE CONSULTANT OPPORTUNITY TO IDENTIFY INADEQUACIES IN DEPARTMENTAL OPERATIONS WHICH COULD BE CORRECTED THROUGH ITS OWN ACTIONS OR THROUGH COUNTY BOARD ACTION. HIS RECOMMENDATIONS INCLUDED RESTRUCTURING THE DEPARTMENT'S ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE, REASSIGNING PERSONNEL TO INCREASE SUPERVISORY AND FIELD MANPOWER, ADOPTING A NEW RECORDS KEEPING SYSTEM, IMPROVING PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT, AND IMPROVING COOPERATION BETWEEN THE DETECTIVE DIVISION AND THE PATROL DIVISION. A PROPOSED REPORT FORM IS ATTACHED.
