Based on a request of former Councilman Robert Wittenstein to have the city post Council expense reports to the web, I asked staff to prepare the report and this document was generated attempting to satisfy the request. Staff pulled all expenses through August, the general requests for reimbursement as allowed by the Charter as well as other miscellaneous expenses that are required by Council to operate including Liability Insurance, Governmental Training and other items benefiting the community but which are not tied back to a specific council-member's formal expense account. There were concerns over the format of the report being confusing but in the end it was decided to provide all data and not just the expenses requested for reimbursement that the Charter allows.
Based on a few emails that I have received and the Alarm Registration program being in effect for over one year, at the last meeting I requested a recap of the program (and believe that Councilwoman Deutsch requested as well, as staff was already working on it). Here are the stats on the Alarm Registration Program.
One
of the most common calls for service for the Dunwoody Police Department
is a security alarm call. In 2012, officers responded to 4,317 alarm
calls, which was an increase of 6.3% when compared to alarm calls in
2011. Alarm calls consume a great deal of resources and the majority of
them are false. This ongoing problem of false alarms is a drain on the
department’s limited resources and is costly to the residents and
business owners in Dunwoody.
