<br />ATTACHMENT A <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />City of Eugene <br /> <br />Police Auditor <br /> <br /> <br /> 800 Olive Street <br /> Eugene, Oregon 97401 <br /> (541) 682-5016 <br /> (541) 682-5599 FAX <br /> www.eugene-or.gov <br /> <br />To: Mayor Piercy and Councilors <br />From: Mark Gissiner, Police Auditor <br />Date: 4-26-2010 <br />Re: Informational Report <br /> <br />This is my quarterly report to City Council on primary issues in the Auditor’s <br />Office. These issues are also discussed with the Auditor Supervision Team of <br />Council President Mike Clark and Council Vice President Betty Taylor. <br /> <br />We continue to strive to provide excellent customer service with a recognition that <br />often times the decisions made are not always popular. We also continue to work <br />with the Eugene Police Department and Chief Pete Kerns to identify key issues in <br />policies and training to improve the performance of the department and the <br />Auditor’s Office. <br /> <br />I. CRB Letter to the Oregon Attorney General Requesting Clarification on <br />Public Safety Records <br /> <br />Recently I sent an email to each of you with attachments regarding the Civilian <br />Review Board’s request for clarification from the Attorney General with regard to <br />public safety records (Attachment 1). Yesterday we received a letter from his office <br />indicating that state law does not permit him to give an opinion or provide legal <br />advice to the Eugene Civilian Review Board (Attachment 2). I believe our next step <br />should be convening all of the interested parties to find an agreeable solution to <br />share information with the public while protecting individual privacy. <br /> <br />II. Annual Report of the Auditor’s Office <br /> <br />While I had hoped to provide an annual report by this date, it is not completed. <br />One of my priorities when I took this job was to establish administrative policies <br />and procedures for long term efficiency goals. While most data is entered in the <br />complaint tracking system known as IAPro, the reports this product generates are <br />inadequate for my needs to provide Council and the City with a comprehensive <br />statistical analysis of complaints with key demographics identified. We did not <br />have templates for statistical data – those needed to be developed. As we mine the <br />data, we are finding errors in the data and are working to coordinate the data. <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br />
