to the Elk River Police department for the department's paperless implementation project.
Background/Discussion
The Elk River Police Department will receive the iXP Excellence in Technology award at the IACP
conference. Chief Beahen had not planned to attend, but given that the department is receiving an
award, the IACP has requested that a representative of the department attend to accept the award at the
ceremony. This is an honor for the department and a reflection on the excellent efforts Chief Beahen
and his staff have made in implementing new technology.
A formal City acknowledgement of the award will be made at a Council meeting after the award has been
presented to Chief Beahen by the IACP in November.
Financial Impact
Expenditure of approximately $1,200 from the 2008 police department training budget.
