City of <br />El ---, <br />River <br />Police Department <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor and City Council <br />FROM: Jeffrey A. Beahen, Chief of Police <br />DATE: May 17, 2010 <br />SUBJECT: Award Presented to the City of Elk River <br />ITEM 6.4. <br />During the 2010 Minnesota Chieps of Police Conference, I was both surprised and honored <br />to be presented and receive an award on behalf of the City of Elk River. This award was <br />given out during the Minnesota Chiefls of Police Annual Business Meeting held in St. Cloud <br />on April 13, 2010. <br />The award was presented to the City of Elk River by MNESTA (Minnesota Electronic Security <br />and Technology Association). Elk River was recognized as the "Alarm Management Agency of <br />the Year" for 2009. This accolade was given to the City for the passing of our local alarm <br />ordinance which drastically reduced the number of false alarm calls that the police <br />department responds to each year. Nationwide, one city is selected each year to receive this <br />award on behalf of the national group that represents the International Chiefls of Police <br />Association -the Security Industry Alarm Coalition. <br />I will be present at the Council Meeting on May 17, 2010 to present this award to the <br />Council. <br />
