THE JUNEAU POLICE DEPARTMENT IS CURRENTLY AUTHORIZED A TOTAL OF 27 PERSONNEL, AND SERVES THE ADJOINING CITIES OF JUNEAU AND DOUGLAS, WITH A COMBINED POPULATION OF ABOUT 7,700. AN EXPANDED SCOPE OF ACTIVITY IS PLANNED WHICH WOULD COVER AN AREA OF 264 SQUARE MILES, WITH A POPULATION INCREASE OF ABOUT 105 PERCENT. ANALYSIS OF THE RECORDS SYSTEM INDICATED THAT LOCALLY DEVELOPED FORMS COULD BE REVISED TO PROVIDE INCREASED INFORMATION, BETTER CONTROL, AND IMPROVED STATISTICAL CAPACITY. A NUMBER OF CURRENT REPORTING FORMS COULD BE ELIMINATED, WHERE THE INFORMATION IS UNNECESSARY OR REDUNDANT. METHODS OF FILING AND INDEX REFERENCE TO RECORD FILES COULD BE MORE EFFICIENT AND RESPONSIVE. A SYSTEM FOR DESTRUCTION OR RETIREMENT OF OLD RECORDS IS NECESSARY TO REDUCE A CRITICAL SECONDARY STORAGE PROBLEM, WHILE PROVIDING REASONABLE ACCESS TO RETIRED RECORDS. TO RESPOND TO THE PROJECTED NEED FOR EXPANSION AND RELOCATION OF POLICE FACILITIES, IT WAS DETERMINED NECESSARY TO PROJECT A FACILITIES REQUIREMENT SUFFICIENT TO COPE WITH THE EXPANDED SIZE AND SCOPE OF POLICE OPERATIONS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. ALSO NEEDED WAS A FACILITY DESIGN WHICH WOULD EFFICIENTLY HOUSE THE JUNEAU POLICE DEPARTMENT, PROVIDE FOR THE VARIETY OF POLICE SERVICES AND SUPPORT REQUIRED, AND ALLOW EFFICIENT LOCATION OF RELATED FUNCTIONS. RECOMMENDATIONS ARE MADE FOR ACHIEVING THESE ENDS. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT MODIFIED)
