Other responsibilities include but are not limited to, developing policy and procedure, planning and organizing operations, managing budget development and related resource allocation, and maintaining appropriate relations with local and other State law enforcement agencies as well as the media. This position also manages the day-to-day operations of the Police Department which includes the management of patrol operations, investigations, administration and police/regulatory compliance, career development, special events, projects, community affairs, policy and procedures, crime analysis, and workload assessment.

The Deputy Police Chief assists the Chief of Police with the oversight of the Agency in conducting its mission with a focus on compliance with all applicable directives. The Deputy Police Chief provides a critical focus on internal operational excellence by reviewing areas of responsibilities, personnel oversight, and office and field observations of performance and Agency operations. The Deputy Police Chief gathers and/or coordinates data collection on efficiency and quality of service, performance, and operational concerns; compiles and reviews assessment reports and provides recommendations for changes or needs to the Chief of Police.
