KINGMAN – The Kingman 911 Communications Center is scheduled for a virtual, site-based assessment as part of a program to achieve initial accreditation by verifying that it meets professional standards. Administered by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA), the accreditation programs require agencies to comply with state-of-the-art standards in four basic areas: policy and procedures, administration, operations and support services.
As part of the Communications virtual site-based assessment, the Kingman 911 Communications Center invites agency employees and members of the community to participate in a public information session to offer comments by calling (928) 753-8780 on Wednesday, June 23, between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. CALEA Assessors will be available at that time to take your comments.
Telephone comments are limited to ten minutes and must address the agency’s ability to comply with CALEA’s standards. CALEA Assessors will determine the department’s compliance with applicable standards. An overview of CALEA standards can be found on their website at https://www.calea.org/contact-us. Individuals may contact Accreditation Manager Deann MacLeod at (928) 753-8171 or via email at dmacleod@cityofkingman.gov for further information.
Anyone wishing to submit written comments about the Kingman 911 Communications Center’s ability to comply with the standards for accreditation may send them to the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement, Inc. (CALEA), 13575 Heathcote Boulevard, Suite 320, Gainesville, Virginia, 22030-2215 or www.calea.org.
