Current:

MPD seeks to continue on its commitment to data- and research-driven, problem-oriented, community-based policing by integrating and operationalizing the recommendations of the 21st Century Task Force report, US DOJ-COPS, CRI-TA recommendations and best practices from peer law enforcement agencies.  Further, the MPD seeks to use the recommendations contained therein to provide a basis for thoughtful community-police conversations.

MPD also seeks to embed its community-based, problem-oriented and data-driven tactics within the context of a shared understanding with the community that what the department is doing represents the voice of the community, that that voice informs the department’s daily work, and that the police and the community are working toward shared goals.
