HIGHLIGHTS
ADMINISTRATION
With the change of the both villages crossing guards coming back to Metro at the start of the new year, we are expecting a
smooth/seamless transition. We are planning a meeting with the crossing guards sometime in December to go over the
logistics of this change.
Our new Administrative Manager is now on board with us. Kelly Vanden Heuvel came from the Little Chute Finance Dept.
We are prioritizing her training to include familiarization with our records management system, payroll, accounts payable
and open records laws.
On October 31st I met with safety staff from Heartland Technology Group Inc. at their facility in Little Chute to discuss
safety training, emergency response planning. I also conducted a walk-through of their rather large facility.
FACILITIES
If you have been to the police dept. lately you may have noticed some changes to our lobby. We have a video screen that
now serves as sort of an informational kiosk. The screen has a looped slide show that presents a variety of information to the
public while they might be waiting in our lobby.
Just want to remind everyone that we now have a secure, medication disposal box in our lobby. The box was free through a
grant from CVS Pharmacies. To date, we have collected over 20 lbs. of unwanted medications in the box.
FLEET
We are preparing to have the two, new squads upfitted with the necessary equipment. We hope to have them in-service by
the middle of December.
Kudos to Lt. Mark Ullman! Several squad cars needed new tires due to regular tread wear. Lt. Ullman was able to put
together several sets of tires with all the full-sized spare tires from the squad cars and put them on the cars needing new
tires. I would estimate we saved about $2,200.00 by doing this.
PATROL
On Monday October 8th at about 9AM, our department responded to a report of an intruder/active shooter at Mapleview
School in Kimberly. After a quick and dynamic response from our agency and five other law enforcement agencies, we
determined that the alarm/report was false. The event was quite traumatic for the students and staff. Below is a picture of
some “Thank you” cards we received from the students. One thanked us for coming on such short notice.
On that note, to more effectively respond to active shooter type incidents, we have purchased and equipped our patrol
rifles with new optics. These optics are better than the stock, “iron sights” for close quarter type incidents. Below is a picture
of a rifle with the new optics installed.
During the month of October officers completed their physical fitness testing which consisted of pushups, sit ups and a one
and half mile timed run.
INVESTIGATIONS
Numerous drug complaints were investigated by Metro while working cooperatively with the Lake Winnebago Area Metro
Drug Unit.
Out investigator has conducted multiple digital forensic evidence extractions from various personal electronic devices and
computers related to several child porn/child enticement cases.
TRAINING AND SPECIAL EVENTS
Investigator Van Schyndel went to WACCI (Wisconsin Association of Computer Crime Investigators) training, where he
received advanced training on mobile and computer forensics, etc.
Officers volunteered at Culvers on October 24th from 11AM to 7PM. Proceeds from the sales are going to the Lights of
Christmas Program: https://www.facebook.com/LightsOfChristmasOutreach/
We are also selling calendars at the PD from this program. Area law enforcement agencies are represented during each
month on the calendar. Metro is featured in November of 2019. Calendars are $20.00 each. I have intentionally darkened
the photo of our department in the hopes of enticing more of you into purchasing the calendar to see our photo. We hosted
a community-wide drug take back event on Saturday, October 27th at the Little Chute Village Hall. We collected about
44lbs. of unwanted medications during this event.
Additional officers were working during Trick-or-Treat and handing out candy and treats in various areas in the community.
