BOX 2712 r NEW SMYRNA BEACH, FL. 32170 -2712 PROJECT GRADUATION is a nonprofit organization of parents, whose goal is to keep the Senior Class of New Smyrna Beach safe on graduation night. Our efforts are also geared to foster memories of graduation, as a very special event, and to award scholorships to deserving Seniors. Statistics from the National Safety Council report that someone dies in a crash involving a drunk driver every 23 minutes. In Florida, last year, 946 crashes involved drunk drivers from ages 15 -19. This is why we, the Parents of New Smyrna High School Seniors, find PROJECT GRADUATION to have such an important purpose. Plans are now being made for the Class of 99 to enjoy an alcohol and drug free evening, the night of graduation. The all night celebration, complete with food,entertainment, and prizes has become a school tradition and this year's graduating class will, with our help, continue the traditional celebration. PROJECT GRADUATION can continue only through the generous support i `'' of community leaders, like yourselves. If you have contributed in the past, we appreciate your support and ask that you continue to help. If you are new to this PROJECT, please join the group of special people whose donations and support will make this evening successful.

Schumaker, Chief of Police • DATE: December 11,1998 SUBJECT: Assessment of 1997 crime in Florida as published in the U.S. Department of Justice, Uniform Crime Reports, CRIME IN THE UNITED STATES 1997, November 22,1998 1. The United States Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation, has just released the Uniform Crime Reports for 1997, CRIME IN THE UNITED STATES. Using the *try statistical data from this document, I submit this annual report. I am extremely pleased to inform you that the report reflects the City of Edgewater in a very positive manner with reference to criminal activity and Class 1 crimes. The crime index total for the City has not appreciatively increased over the past two years. Crime index of 667 in 1995, 686 in 1996 and 690 in 1997. During this same time frame (1995 - 1997) the city's population has increased 631 residents from 18,345 in 1995 to 18.976 in 1997. 2. The purpose of this report is to inform the city manager, city council, other government officials, the business community and the most affected and concerned, the general public as to the nature of the crime problem in Volusia County in general, and the City of Edgewater in particular. The quantitative statistical data derived from the 1997 Annual Uniform Crime Report and F.D.L.E's Criminal Justice Information System is hereby presented to provide clearer understanding of the overall scope of the reported criminal activity in the City of Edgewater. It will aid in making effective management and budget decisions for FY 99- %we 2000. Page 2 3 I have extrapolated the data available from the Department of Justice and the Florida Department Of Law Enforcement to identify every city or community within Florida that has a similar population range of ( 17,000- 21,000). Edgewater's population was listed as 18,976, which is consistent for comparison purposes. The report reflects a reasonably accurate portrayal of the crime problem in this city when compared to similar sized Florida cities, bearing in mind that each community has its own set of unique features which impact either negative or positive on the crime index of any given city. It should be noted that this report is not a scientific analysis but a reasonable view of how Edgewater Police Department performed in carrying out its responsibilities. 4. The data contained in this report is taken directly from the U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Uniform Crime Reports, Crime in the United States, 1997.

Edgewater is now ranked behind Daytona *ow Beach's 67,891, Port Orange's 41,514 and Ormond Beach at 33,345. This chart reflects the effectiveness of the police services and the corresponding budget. We do better than most with Tess. The average total police employees for the above cities is 66.9 compared to Edgewater's 45.0. Page 3 5.

As Chief of Police, I would like to publicly express my sincere appreciation to the dedicated men and women of the Edgewater Police Department, who have worked diligently to make this community one of the safest in the State of Florida. I recognize that none of this would be possible without the support of the City Manager and City Council in providing the funding and facilities to operate a professional an effective police department. LFS /pt CITY OF EDGEWATER City Manager's Office MEMORANDUM err►' DATE: December 15, 1998 1 TO: Mayor and City Council \ k\k FROM: Ken Hooper, City Manager SUBJECT: Reorganization/Reclassification As authorized by City Council on August 7, 1998, the City's Public Works/Engineering Department was reorganized and the duties and functions distributed to Mr. Terry Wadsworth and Mr. Jack Corder. The reorganization resulted in the creation of a new department (Environmental Services) under the direction of Mr. Wadsworth and a retitled department (Parks and Recreation/Maintenance) under the direction of Mr. Corder. Operations under the reorganization have gone well and the City has obtained a more cost - effective, accountable and better managed field operations group. After approximately four (4) months of operation, some minor tune -up and changes are warranted. Four (4) positions within the Street Maintenance section of the Parks and Recreation/Maintenance Department will be better utilized by %r placing them within the Environmental Services Department. This will centralize all right -of -way mowing and maintenance services within one department and under the supervision of one individual. The employee responsible for street sign construction, maintenance and installation will remain with the Parks and Recreation/Maintenance Department. Sign maintenance and installation within the Parks and Recreation/Maintenance Department will provide better cross - training opportunities and enable the City to reduce possible liabilities due to better periodic sign maintenance. Sign construction and maintenance for all buildings and roadways will be coordinated by one individual. As a result of the elimination of several (seven) mid -upper management positions, many duties and job responsibilities throughout the City have changed and should be addressed. An example of changed conditions is the increase in accountability and responsibilities of the employees within the Finance Department. With the elimination of the Finance Director /Assistant City Manager position and the promotion of the Assistant Finance Director, many duties that were previously the responsibility of the Assistant Finance Director have been delegated to other existing positions throughout the department. Other functional changes, such as improved capital budgeting and formal purchasing procedures, have resulted in changed responsibilities for many existing positions. This department has greatly increased responsibilities and accountability, yet has fewer personnel ' to complete the work tasks. The changed working conditions may be reflected in modified job titles, job descriptions, service grades and compensation. Similar conditions exist within other departments that have changed responsibilities and staffing. The effected departments include the Fire Department, Building Department, Planning Department and Personnel Department. Reorganization/Reclassification December 15, 1998 Page -2- The enclosed proposed reorganization is the final step in streamlining and modifying the City's role Now and staffing for FY98/99.
