Meeting June 12, 1990, Page ~ -x6~ Chief Fletcher said that the Public Safety Department is down to one reserve officer. He said that Rose Vanquez most likely will not return to Riverside because she is working overtime in Kansas City and will need more training if she returns. Chief Fletcher said he would like authorization to employ two and possibly three reserve officers. One is working full time in Gladstone and would like to work here to get some overtime. He has had police training and also fire training and thinks maybe he has had first response training. Another one he has in mind is a former Platte County officer, who has had fire training with South Platte Fire Department and in the Weston Area. He is currently employed by Food Barn but would like to keep active in police work. The third. one he has in mine is a person who was on KC Police Dept. for 9-1/2 years and is currently employed for Delmar Printing. He thought the third one would have to be sent through the 120-hour training program and in this case there would have to be three people sent for training at a cost of approximately $160.00 each, plus the uniforms and two pagers. This would enable the City to have three reserves. Chief Fletcher said he though we would not need use the reserves as much now as in the past-years because of the schedule he has worked out. He said that Walt Brian does need the 120 hours of training and if the city authorized to employ Ray Henderson as a reserve, he would need the training.
