And we will go on then to item 41 which is legislative file 89185 the chief of police fourth quarter report. Chief Patterson >> thank you. Thank you. >> Do you have it? >> I do not. >> Oh you don't have it. Uh, my apologies. I thought it was sent to you already. >> We'll stand informal while we find the chief's presentation. >> You know, that's funny. should be. >> Yes. My apologies. Started with a collar issue as well that Alder Martinez Rutherford helped me. So, it's not off to a good start on the fourth quarter. Sorry. You can also resistance. Yay. >> There you go. >> Okay. My apologies again for that. Um, so this uh this is our fourth quarter report from 2025. Uh, some of you may, if you participated in the discussion a few weeks ago, some of you may recognize some of these numbers. They are they're unchanged, uh, fortunately. But um I think it's great to be able to present them again because we've really made some uh I think some very positive gains as a city. Um and I think it's really highlighted the partnerships that have been strengthened over the last year with public health and you know the violence prevention unit, our community partners. Um and uh as as you may have seen if you again participate in that discussion, there's a lot of great things I think happening uh throughout the city. So, uh, start with the next slide. Um, with shots fired, uh, so through the fourth quarter, um, when we compare to the three-year average, and as a reminder, we're looking at a three-year average now instead of comparing, uh, you know, 1/4th quarter to the previous year's fourth quarter. It just didn't seem like that was the best way to to follow trends. But um when we uh look at uh the year-to- date, so there was 117 instances of shots fired compared to the three-year average of 154 is a 24% decrease. >> We're we're missing the shots fired. >> There you go. I'm sorry. Sorry. Now we'll move on to the opiate overdose. Uh opioid and overdoses are at a 16.5% decrease compared to the three-year average at the end of last year. just keep clicking through. Uh robberies also at a double digit decrease uh citywide. We're at a 14 and a.5% increase at the end uh compared to our three-year average of 124 per year. Um burglaries. Now that again that includes both non-residential and uh residential burglaries, that's at a 42 uh% decrease um compared to the three-year average. stolen autos. Um, at the end of last year, we saw almost a 50% decrease in stolen autos compared to our three-year average, which is fantastic. Now, uh, if you are covering the north and east sides, you probably saw a recent slight uptick uh, that we're experiencing here in 2026. And so, that's why we got that education information out um, as quickly as we saw it. Um, and we'll try to stay on top of that the best we can with a lot of our proactive efforts and through adjusting some of our our uh tactics uh mainly in the east and north districts. Um, but a positive number uh there to end the year. And then theft from autos are at almost a 19% decrease um compared to that three-year average uh as well. So really seeing you can pop to the last side. Really seeing some I think um uh some amazing strides uh last year and building on from the previous year. Um, and again, I have to give a lot of credit uh to our police officers who are have really been working hard and have embraced being more data driven with both their proactive efforts um but also their uh community engagement, community outreach efforts um in some of our uh some of our areas that really um require additional attention. Um, but it's also highlighting, I think, an engaged community and and really the great collaborations that exist now um, citywide with with some of our strong partners in in the prevention side of things. So, um, just a few reminders of what else is in that report and I thought I'd keep it concise since we talked about this a few weeks ago, but please let me know if you have any questions. >> Thank you, Chief. Questions for the chief. Father River. >> Thank you, mayor. Thank you, chief, as always. Thanks for being here. >> You're welcome. >> For the report. Uh, first, I just wanted to also thank you publicly again for the additional NRO in the central district. I just came from a neighborhood association meeting where Matt Johnson uh came and introduced himself. So, I he's already made a difference in the few short weeks since he's been with us, February 1st. And we really look forward to more great results. So, thanks for that. I know you created two NRO's. >> That's great. you know, the other is North and East, uh, Liz Ericson and those two will be collaborating throughout the year and really trying to, you know, better serve that entire population, especially as some of the folks we see, you know, navigate the northeast districts and come downtown during the day. Um, we'll we'll do our best to try to keep them connected to services and and serve them the best we can. So, >> yeah. So, I really appreciate that. So, on to my question. You might have seen on tonight's council agenda, we approved under the consent motion a $100,000 forgivable loan to Toan for Jake's Place at West Main and Proudfitit Streets um from the community development division. And as you probably are well aware more than more so the details than we are, but that they were hoping that on the second floor of that facility that used to be Journey Mental Health, uh that they hope to have a detox facility of some sort there. But when I asked the question of their CFO in the finance committee meeting last week, it was still very much up in the air, it seemed like. So, it's kind of a two-part question for you. on I don't know if you've been privy to any conversations about Toan's new facility downtown and if you can share anything about that if so but what I know you could share with us is something that um we I think thought about asking you when you were with us across the street a few weeks ago for the violence prevention um uh updates and and that is uh what the experience of your officers have been since New Year's since the county-owned detox facility closed. >> No, I appreciate that uh Alder. Thank you for the question. Um I haven't been as privy to some of the more contemporary updates on Jake's Place. Um I I was getting a lot more I guess towards the latter part of last year when you know there was still some hope that at the county level >> uh funding would be sustained for the the um service to incapacitated persons throughout the county. But um you know since then I I know that Toyan has been um trying to make some advances and still hopefully uh return that service uh to Madison and Dane County. Um but I haven't gotten any like I said any real time updates. I know there's um you know some suggestions that maybe I think it's Shorewood Behavioral Health may also come into the discussion when it comes to serving incapacitated persons which um you know frankly anything that would divert uh folks um who are incapacitated away from the hospitals and the emergency rooms I think is a win. Frankly, um we've been talking a lot at the Dane County Chief's level about um you know, when another jurisdiction, frankly, brings in someone who might be incapacitated and um you know, gets them admitted to one of our area hospitals and then that person elopes or they you know create another issue or something like that at the hospital. How uh that can first be served by MPD but then maybe you know uh returned to the the original jurisdiction. Um certainly WPD is also very interested in that with WH hospital being their uh their purview. So um you know we are seeing officers obviously using the emergency rooms uh you know more because that's our only option for for these folks. Um but it's still early in the year and uh you know Assistant Chief Tai has been um tasked with tracking all the time so we can actually do a comparative analysis uh at some point here in 26 compared to last year. Um, so we can use some data to, you know, perhaps make an argument if we need to uh for improved services. So >> I appreciate that very much. So So your information is probably anecdotal at this point. >> A little anecdotal. Yeah. It's only, you know, we're, you know, late February, but >> but it hasn't been, would you say it's been clearly noticeable on a regular basis that >> you have patrol officers tied up in emergency departments now where they would much would would would be out on the street much quicker if they still had the county owned facility open or has it not been? >> It's hard. >> It's hard to answer that because you know, as you know, back in August, Toyan reduced their bed capacity down to three. >> Yes. So, it's almost like getting conditioned to elevating gas prices. You know, you you get used to a higher gas price and then it it feels great when it lowers just a slightly bit. But, you know, it's hard for us to tell if there's a measurable difference, you know, since August. And so, that's what we're trying to tell. >> I see what you're saying. Yeah. So, you really, your patrol officers had really experienced it in the latter half of last year >> because detox was full. >> They were full very frequently. Yes. >> Yeah. I understand. >> Thank you. Yeah, appreciate. >> Yeah, but it's it's definitely a a hot topic, you know, especially when I'm talking to Chief Push at EW and, you know, we've seen unfortunately some numbers pre- pandemic, you know, around uh over intox over uh consumption and incapacitation on campus as well. And so it's it's something that we're both thinking about and talking about frequently. >> Yeah, we do have something called the Mifflin Street Block Party coming up sooner rather than later, which was also on our the glass ban was on our agenda tonight as well. consent. Great point because you know historically as you know we've detox needed detox be available for that particular event. >> Yeah. That last Saturday in April for sure. >> Yeah. Would it be appropriate chief for Chief Tai to maybe include a section in your next quarterly report on his findings? >> We can absolutely try to do that. >> That would be great. >> Yeah. Thanks very much. Appreciate it. >> Thank you, Mayor. >> Thank you, Alder. Alder Pritchette. Questions? >> Yes. of the overdoses uh for the fourth quarter, how many of them were um ended in death and how many of them were recoverable? Uh I think I have that in the report. Alder, I can't remember that off the top of my head, but let me take a look here and make sure I don't misspe. We had four in the fourth quarter. Four deaths. >> Deaths. >> That's right. >> Yep. >> Any idea? Do you have the age the age range? >> 19 total for the year. I I could get you those. I don't have the the victim age range, but I can certainly get that for you. Um it is a decrease, but still it's 19 souls. Obviously, that is too many. >> Thank you. >> Y >> Thank you, Alder. Uh, President Bidder, >> I'll keep you on that topic for just a sec. Um, so do you have a sense of why the overdoses are declining? Um, and the second piece of that is I think the drug is cratom. What? There's a new thing. What's it called? There's some other drug that stuff is getting into the supply that's very bad. And I and I don't think that it is an opioid. Uh well that's a it's a good question. I haven't heard of the new stuff. I mean it's been largely centered around fentanyl and opiate related drugs. Uh our discussions um and certainly fentanyl is still very prevalent uh in the community. Um, you know, I don't want to misspeak and and um offer suggestions that are not accurate, but I do think the prevalence of Narcan and the community has been tremendously helpful um and has really helped us lower um you know, the uh the number of overdose total, not just deaths, but uh total overdose um you know, but I talked to a practitioner uh last uh November, I think, talking about the decrease and what they perceived and um you know they they unfortunately attributed also to increasing tolerance levels because of you know the adjusting of of us as human beings when when there's you know high levels of Z use and just um that actually working to our benefit. So when you hear about new things coming in, that's scary because obviously that challenges uh you know both the prevalence of Narcan and whether whether or not that'll work if it's not an opiate derivative and then certainly the change in um you know individuals tolerance levels for these things. So >> Okay. >> Mhm. Uh, the other question I had was, um, so in the shots fired report, um, I noticed that the self-inflicted were included in the overall, um, and I'm just wondering if it would make sense to separate them out only because, you know, I think the public is they're more concerned about like what's happening on the street. I mean, obviously, as you said, these souls lost is is a tragic piece, but I'm wondering if, you know, those should be separated out in the report so that we can um sort of better show what's happening in homes versus >> Well, again, we I am happy to present any way that you would like in this report, and I'm certainly able to parse it out. The one thing I would suggest is that we keep it as an important discussion point because uh you know, as the mayor will attest in her bi-weekly violence prevention meetings, I mean, that's something we've been talking about regularly. Um and if you remember, I mean, we've had um you know, some um unintended individuals hit by accidental gunfire, by people that are mishandling their weapons. We've had individuals, multiple individuals shoot themselves in the leg or the foot or what have you because they are frankly not trained and they don't know how to handle uh their firearm appropriately. So, uh that's something that we're going to continue to look at um you know with the mayor with the VPU and and hopefully find some you know ways to address it because it seems to be a a persistent theme unfortunately uh in all our meetings. And then my other question might actually be for attorney hos because it's about I believe we sued Kia and Hyundai over the easy to steal cars >> still going. >> Okay. So, whoever wants to answer that one because I'm just wondering are the thefts down simply because some of those cars are off the street or is it that there's actually fewer people trying to steal cars or people are being better about actually not leaving their keys in their ignition with their car running? Like do we know the why? might lateral that to you since I'm still meeting with legal staff on this issue. So >> I I don't I don't know what the cause of the change is. Just to give you a brief status on the litigation, there's a trial scheduled for the M Madison portion of it in April, twoe trial out in California. So >> no, but the you know the failure of uh anti- theft device was a theme in this last uh quarter. You're correct. but um with other auto manufacturers as well. And so the we're trying to stay on top of that as best we can. >> Thank you. >> Thank you, Alder. Alder Figuro. >> Thank you, Mayor. Uh thank you. Um um John, I have a couple questions. I think I asked this before and and I'm still confused about these numbers. So for the um the sex trafficking um category, the human trafficking category, I'm I'm sorry, that's always zero. Is that is are those cases being classified as something else in this report? Because we know that they exist here in Madison. We know that there's nonprofit organizations that are constantly working on this issue, but the number is always zero. So can you explain that again, please? Well, I think what I could offer, you know, and I didn't bring um someone with me this time, but you know, I I thought about including our special victims unit lieutenant um to come and and talk about the the types of cases they're investigating both with involving um children, but also adults. Uh you know, because I know that this topic is um of particular interest to you and others. Uh it's um this is offense data and so it it doesn't mean necessarily that they haven't um disrupted that type of incident. Uh but it it's it wasn't a charged offense. It could certainly be other um offenses that we're looking at. And I I I guess I'd love to to bring her along with me uh Lieutenant Harris to the next meeting and we can hopefully add some better context to that for you. >> Thank you. And for the driving under the influence, does that includes um all the different categories that you guys have? You know, um repeats um you know, there's you have like multiple groups of of um DUIs. Are they all combined onto into this category? that that includes I believe all so you know second third offense those are all lumped under the same offense totals >> and two more questions this kidnapping abduction category honestly I don't recall seeing is are these numbers like the norm for the kidnapping abductions >> I believe so but again again I think um that's an area that it it would be hopeful to have a person's crime uh person with me and they could help add some additional context but um that that is that is something that we are required to track. Uh and there are different offenses. I just I cannot recall uh standing here tonight exactly which ones fit into that offense category. And then finally for the disorderly conduct um um information it will be nice to see those break up by area >> by geography you mean >> by geography. Yeah. Where are are you seeing the highest numbers um on that category in the future? >> We can do that. And I think just if I could offer too, we um that particular offense typically has um an an enhancer added to it. So for example, domestic uh is enhancer and um we could break it out by enhancer as well just to maybe add a little more >> context I guess to the discussion. Yeah, I think we you and I have been conversations about um the specific statue under for the description for that um particular um offense and how um it has heavily it heavily um weights on you know the individual trainee or the individual police officer. Um, so I really would like to start taking a deeper look about where are, you know, which areas where we were seeing the most of those cases and see if we can tie that back some training and just really work into that particular issue. >> Sounds good. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you, Alder. Alder Glenn. >> Thank you. Thank you, Mayor. Good evening, Chief. Um just a couple questions. one um if you could talk a little bit about uh because I really feel like this was pivotal for the work of VPU um when I was there was those monthly accountability meetings that we were started to be invited to um and talk about that in that transparency lens that that really allows VPU to understand the perspective Um, and then the second one is, um, we have really appreciated Lester Moore, but I don't know if the general public really understands or knows that kind of position that he has. if you could talk a little bit about that. Uh that kind of even as I would see it like a hybrid kind of neighborhood officer but without the um punitive or citation piece of the work that he does. >> No, absolutely. And so, um, if if you all remember, um, back, I think it was August or September when I, uh, had Assistant Chief Tai with me, he gave a presentation on our stratified policing, uh, model. And that involves a meeting structure and, uh, like Alder Glenn mentioned, we have a monthly accountability meeting. Um, and, um, essentially what that is is, uh, the, uh, three assistant chiefs, myself, we have all the managers meet with us. Um and they each present on their districts and they uh cover um crime trends. They cover their priority areas, their priority locations, and then all of the efforts that have taken place over that last month. Um and it's meant to be very interactive and uh we ask questions of one another, officer suggestions to one another, but uh importantly, we also, you know, share uh what's occurring from district to district. And so you can find the common threads pretty easily. um especially if there are, you know, specific individuals that are traveling between um certain areas of the city. Um last, I think January, we uh started inviting in all of VPU. Um and uh they've been attending every month with us. Uh they were just at the last one last week. Um it's really I think enhanced the the meeting quality overall because we hear about their prevention efforts um what they're doing in you know frankly a lot of the very same areas that we're working in um and uh the discussions allow us to try to figure out how to best um support one another and also uh maximize our our efforts. And so, um, we're trying to use data, you know, that's available to us to be, uh, smarter with our resources and, um, I I think it's been helping the violence prevention unit as well. And it's it's certainly improved our working relationships and collaborations. And so, uh, I I don't want that to end. They'll keep hopefully coming. And um you know we've talked about inviting in other agencies as we find certain um issues specifically around like priority locations if maybe there's a persistence of building inspection problems. Uh you know that's my hope is to start um inviting in other agencies from around uh the city um to hopefully uh you know team city approach on on uh violence prevention and and crime reduction. So, uh, appreciate you raising that, Aler. As far as Lester Moore, um, he is one of our, uh, core officers. So, community outreach resource education officers. Um, and if you remember, that was the, uh, um, most recent cops hiring grant that, uh, was awarded to the police department. Uh, it's been almost four years ago now. Um, and, uh, he's assigned to the north side. um and is not necessarily meant to be assigned to a specific geography, but um certainly we allow, you know, some discretion to the both the district captain and the outreach captain. Um and uh he's really meant to um try to better connect with youth in certain areas. Uh certainly in our priority areas and priority uh priority locations. um and really try to to work collaboratively with community partners to um engage with the community but also work to prevent uh incidents from occurring. And so um Lester's been around for a long time and he's developed a lot of relationships and I'm I'm not surprised you appreciate him out there older. So thank you. Yeah, we'd like to keep him for a long >> Well, he just started, so I think you, you know, if he stays his full four years and then ask for another one, you've got him for a while. So, >> thank you. >> Thank you, Elder Alder Evers. >> Thank you, Mayor, and thank you, Chief. Um, looking at your the section of the report on traffic safety, I see that you break down the um traffic stops by quarter, but I wonder if in the next report you could also break down the number of citations by quarter. I don't see that. Maybe it's somewhere else. >> It's uh right on the very next page older. Um page 13. Um >> yeah, but it breaks it. It unless I'm misreading this, I see the citations on for fourth quarter, but I don't see how it compares to quarters one, two, and >> Oh, I see. which I misunderstood your point. Yes, we can absolutely do that. Yep. >> And uh yeah, that'd be helpful. Um I think it's worth tracking and also perhaps a a comparison against the three-year average. >> I can do that. Absolutely. >> And I want to thank you for listing the speeders hotline. I've been an alder for almost seven years and it was only in the last year that I learned that we had one of these. And I'm wondering if MPD through your social media or through your coffee with a cop or whatever ways of reaching out to the public, you could help spread the word on that because I think that's helpful. I think a lot of our res residents feel powerless in the face of what they perceive to be, you know, speeding in the neighborhoods, people going through red lights, stop signs, and things like that. I've taken now to letting people know in in neighborhood meetings and every time I get a complaint from a resident about speeding on a particular street, I respond to them and remind them about the the speeders hotline. And I just want to encourage all my colleagues to do the same because that is something that is empowering for people to feel like there's something they can do in response. And as you know, it's not even necessary that these individuals have a license plate, correct? That if they can just call it in, they don't even need to know the make and model, but just the time of day and the street. Is that correct? That's right. A little bit. >> Certainly, if we um are provided with vehicle information like the license plate uh that we can follow up on, uh we do so. And you know, a vehicle owner can get a a letter from the police department sharing that they were seen. um and that there were complaints about their driving. But uh most importantly, I would suggest and having worked in a district for many years, uh the complaints that we do receive, we use to direct our proactive efforts. And so, um it's it's incredibly important, incredibly useful for us. Um and uh it's used by both district staff, you know, with with when they have available resources and then certainly by uh traffic enforcement staff as well. So, thank you for uh suggesting that. It's uh it's a very useful tool for us. >> Yeah, let's spread the word about that. I think that's a really good tool. >> And lastly, you made reference to the cops grant and you and I have spoken about the possibility of perhaps a cops grant being made available in the future that could be perhaps explored to get another testing for the city. And um could you speak to that? let let my colleagues and the listening public know about what your your sense of what that could be like and if that's a feasibility a possibility perhaps for the 2027 budget. >> No, thank you. U you know the the cops hiring grant is typically offered annually. Um and you know as as we've all experienced you know the previous trends are a little different now. And so I think uh it's what I'm hearing is the announcement may come out sooner um rather than later this year as soon as perhaps next month March. Uh which would be helpful um to know uh in advance of the operating budget discussion obviously but um in the past uh traffic enforcement has been a nice fit for one of the the categories um that you have to fit an application through. So, um, you know, without seeing actual instructions, it's it's hard for me to say definitively, but we're hearing um, you know, that it's coming earlier this year, which is good. Um, and, uh, that the match requirements might be more, uh, attractive, which is also very good. Yes. >> Um, and, uh, even the possibility that non-commission positions could be considered. So, that's all, you know, just discussion that we're hearing from colleagues at the the federal level. So hopefully that is what happens but till it's on paper I you know it's it's just what we're hearing. So you're welcome. >> Appreciate it. >> Thank you Alder. Alder Gender Raj. >> Thank you. Uh thank you chief for your report. I have a question unrelated to any of it. Um actually it's not a question it's a statement. Uh the video that your department put out about 2 weeks ago about the unmarked uh law enforcement vehicles. I loved it and I think a lot of people in my community did as well. I think the more educational things you guys can do such as that I think would be much more appreciated and you should keep that up. >> Oh well, thank you. >> Thank you. >> We are uh moving forward with some window clings instead of the the packing tape is not held up very well on the windshields. So, we're going to try to improve uh improve that. But thank you for saying that. I appreciate that. >> Thank you, Alder Alder Okavitz. >> Thank you, Mayor. And uh thank you, Chief. Um, I will be honest, I was waiting so long I forgot what my question was. Um, >> it was a good one. I >> It It was probably probably a really good one. Um, I'll get back to you. >> Thank you. >> You're You're it, Alder. >> Sorry. >> You can you can email me later. I'm happy to. Yeah, absolutely. >> I have no other elders in the queue with questions. >> So, thank you, Chief. >> Thank you. appreciative. Thank you. >> And of course, you all can contact the chief directly if you have follow-up questions or um things that you want to see in addition to what's in the report. Um I'll remind you that the contents of the report are dictated by an ordinance. The chief provides more information than what is required by the ordinance. So if you wanted to see more or different information, um you could amend the ordinance or just simply ask the chief. Um, and that, my friends, is it unless there are additional introductions from the floor or any announcements. Seeing none of either, then Alder Field, it's your turn. >> Move to adjurnn. >> Moved and seconded to adjurnn. Is there any objection to recording unanimous vote in favor of adjournment?
