Whereas the Police Act defines under Section 27(1) that it is the role and responsibility of Council to maintain an adequate and effective municipal police service and in Section 29(2) states that council may obtain any information from the commission necessary to enable it to assess the efficiency and the financing requirements of the police service, therefore Council direct Administration: To connect with Calgary Police Commission to identify the Key Performance Indicators being used by Commission in determining the requirements of the Calgary Police Budget in order to meet Councils expectations of an adequate and effective municipal police service under Section 27(1) of the Police Act; and To request further information from the Calgary Police Commission on the measures being used and how they are tracked, under the current set of Key Performance Indicators in the development of the 2023-2026 Service Plans and Budgets for the Calgary Police Service and in the evaluation of past budgets; and Report back to Council with the Key Performance Indicators to verify if Council agrees or wishes to develop a revised set of expectations by the end of Q2 2023; and Develop a process to exchange information between Council and Calgary Police Commission that satisfies Councils expectations under Section 29(2) of the Police Act by the end of Q3 2023.
