WHEREAS, The Kilgore Police Department has achieved |
|
Recognized status in the Texas Best Practices Recognition Program; |
|
and |
|
WHEREAS, Created in 2006 and overseen by the Texas Police |
|
Chiefs Association Foundation, the program consists of 164 Texas |
|
law enforcement best practices developed by chiefs of police and |
|
command-level officers from across the state; agencies work on a |
|
voluntary basis to comply with a range of standards related to their |
|
operations, from property and evidence management to the protection |
|
of citizens' rights, and ultimately undergo an on-site audit and |
|
review; and |
|
WHEREAS, The Kilgore Police Department spent two years |
|
steadily adopting and implementing the recommended best practices, |
|
and under the leadership of Chief Todd Hunter, KPD became the 77th |
|
law enforcement agency to earn recognition from the program; among |
|
the benefits associated with the designation are improved |
|
recruitment and grant eligibility; and |
|
WHEREAS, The entire Kilgore police force has demonstrated |
|
exceptional diligence and professionalism in meeting the Texas |
|
Police Chiefs Association Foundation best practices, and its |
|
members can take great pride in this prestigious honor; now, |
|
therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate the Kilgore Police Department on |
|
achieving Recognized status in the Texas Best Practices Recognition |
|
Program and extend to all those affiliated with KPD sincere best |
|
wishes for continued success; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the department as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
