A BUDGET THAT CORRELATES POLICE EXPENDITURES WITH PROGRAMS WILL UPGRADE THE QUALITY AND TIMELINESS OF THE DELIVERY OF POLICE SERVICES.
Abstract
BUDGET SHOULD BE A MEANINGFUL MANAGEMENT TOOL THAT CAN BE USED TO IDENTIFY WHICH POLICE PROGRAMS ARE RECEIVING FISCAL RESOURCES, AND THEN TO MEASURE THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS IN TERMS OF PERFORMANCE AND PRODUCTIVITY. THIS PROCESS CAN ALSO MINIMIZE DEPENDENCY ON FEDERAL FUNDS.
