Juvenile arrests <br /> continued to decline from a high of 105 in 2019 to a low of 24 in 2022, while overall <br /> arrests of 1,179 is markedly lower than the previous low of 1,476 in 2021. This is <br /> attributable to what the profession has seen in recent years and the current vacancy <br /> rate in the department. <br /> 2022 continued to see a similar trend with officers encountering firearms with increasing <br /> frequency during field contacts. The increase of crime gun seizures was the result of <br /> proactive police contacts utilizing the Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) system <br /> and traditional police patrol. These results are aligned with what other agencies in the <br /> region are experiencing. <br /> Injury traffic collisions continue to remain below pre-pandemic levels though they have <br /> steadily increased since the low of 117 in 2020 to 167 in 2022. This increase is <br /> commensurate with the increase in vehicles on the roadways due to the lessening of <br /> COVID restrictions, people returning to public settings and a depleted traffic unit due to <br /> patrol staffing needs. <br /> Table 4 provides data on the types and frequency of citations issued. <br /> Table 4: Traffic Data <br /> 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 <br /> Traffic Stops 12,398 13,572 6,274 13,048 11,727 <br /> Moving Citations 2,909 3,267 1,512 2,822 1,119 <br /> Mechanical Citations 877 897 341 595 464 <br /> Parking Citations 1,313 1,503 674 1,238 1,030 <br /> Courtesy Citations 3,125 3,649 1,186 1,508 948 <br /> TOTAL CITATIONS 8,224 9,316 373 6,163 3,561 <br /> Collision Responses 1,141 1,011 591 687 748 <br /> Injury Collisions 204 195 117 135 167 <br /> Page 4 of 7 <br />
