Lafayette Falls Extension Annexation Area 7 B. Police Department The Annexation Area would be added to the existing Beat 16. Police patrols and emergency responses will be part of the services the City will offer to this area. As a result of this annexation, it may be necessary to restructure or increase police patrols beyond the existing beat patrol. The addition of this Annexation Area will not significantly increase response time. The cost of servicing the proposed area within the existing beat patrol structure would not be expected to impact the existing budget of the Police Department significantly. The patrol costs would be assumed by the Police Department budget. However, this area, as well as all other areas of the City, will continually be monitored for level of service demands and other criteria that would necessitate additional resources through budgetary increases or possible shifting of existing resources, such as a beat restructure. Police services and response time in this area can be expected to be comparable with that found in all other areas of the City. Police coverage to this area could begin immediately upon annexation. Note: The cost of service for this Annexation Area is based on the number of parcels. Household information is provided for comparative purposes. 2023 Actual Budget Report for the Department: Expenditures (including pension cost): $54,441,986 Number of Households in City(2022): @41,488 Cost per Household: @$1,312 Number of Parcels in City (2024): @47,400 Cost per Parcel: @$1,149 Proposed Number of Households in Area: 111 Proposed Number of Parcels in Area: 111 Cost for Annexation Area per year: $127,539 (111 parcels x $1,149/ parcel)
