Justification for adding a drone to the Police Department
The addition of the Autel EVO Max 4N drone to the police department represents a
strategic investment in enhancing public safety, officer efficiency, and operational
capability. This drone is designed specifically for mission-critical applications in public
safety and is equipped with advanced features that significantly improve situational
awareness, search and rescue, and tactical response.
Key Benefits:
1.Superior Night Operations Capability
The EVO Max 4N features a starlight night vision camera, thermal imaging, and a
laser rangefinder. This combination allows officers to effectively conduct
operations in complete darkness—ideal for missing persons searches, suspect
tracking, and perimeter security during nighttime incidents.
2.Advanced Obstacle Avoidance and Navigation
With an advanced obstacle avoidance system powered by AI and radar, the drone
can safely operate in complex urban or wooded environments. This ensures safe
navigation even in GPS-denied areas, such as dense forests or indoor spaces.
3.Real-Time Intelligence Gathering
The EVO Max 4N can transmit high-definition video in real time to command
staff or officers on the ground. This improves decision-making during critical
incidents, such as barricaded suspects, large crowd management, or active crime
scenes.
4.Rapid Deployment and Portability
This drone is designed for quick deployment and ease of use in the field, allowing
officers to launch it within minutes to assess potentially dangerous situations
without placing personnel at risk.
5.Cost-Effective Force Multiplier
The drone serves as a force multiplier by reducing the need for multiple personnel
in initial search or surveillance operations. It also minimizes risk to officers
during dangerous calls for service.
6.Support for Emergency and Disaster Response
In the event of natural disasters, the drone can assist in locating victims, assessing
Page 12 of 25
damage, and guiding first responders, making it a valuable asset for community-
wide emergencies.
Conclusion
The Autel EVO Max 4N is a cutting-edge tool that aligns with the department’s
commitment to leveraging technology for smarter, safer policing. The investment will
enhance operational efficiency, improve officer safety, and provide better service to
the community, particularly during high-risk or time-sensitive incidents.
Cost: $30,000.00 for Two Drones.

As part of our ongoing commitment to student safety and violence prevention, we are
requesting continued funding for the School Safety Program for Fiscal Year 2025 -
2026. A key component of this initiative is support for the crime tip line, which serves as
an essential tool for early intervention and threat detection across our school campuses.
Program Impact
Over the past year, the tip line has proven to be an effective and confidential resource for
students to report a wide range of safety concerns. The attached report reflects 204 total
tips received across Byron Nelson High School and Medlin Middle School,
categorized as follows:
•Vape-related incidents: 69
•Drug-related tips: 47 (including marijuana, powder, pills)
•Bullying/Harassment: 37
•Assaults, Fighting, and Threats: 16
•Sexual Misconduct/Assault: 6
•Other Safety Concerns: 29 (including contraband, truancy, crisis, weapons, and
self-harm)
These reports have enabled our School Resource Officers and administrative partners to
respond quickly and appropriately, preventing escalation and addressing both criminal
activity and student well-being.
The funding requested will continue to support:
•Operation and promotion of the anonymous crime tip line.
•Officer follow-up and investigation time.
•School safety outreach and awareness campaigns.
•Data analysis and reporting to guide future prevention strategies.
Page 16 of 25
The tip line continues to be a vital component of our proactive approach to school safety.
With continued support from the CCPD, we can ensure this program remains strong,
responsive, and impactful for the safety of our students and staff.

As part of our public safety education and crime prevention strategy, we are requesting
continued support in the FY 2025 budget for our Identity Theft and Internet Fraud
Community Training Program. This initiative is designed to equip residents with
practical tools to protect themselves against common scams, online threats, and
fraudulent activity targeting individuals and families.
Program Impact
In 2025, we launched the program with our first in-person class, which was attended by
17 community members. The class covered topics including:
•Common types of internet fraud and scams.
•Identity theft warning signs and prevention.
•Steps to take if you become a victim.
•How to secure personal and financial information online.
Feedback from the first session was overwhelmingly positive, with attendees expressing
interest in additional offerings.
We are currently preparing for our second class, scheduled for July or August 2025, and
we anticipate training over 50 residents through this year’s sessions.
Funding will support the following:
•Development and printing of training materials.
•Community outreach and marketing to increase attendance.
•Staff time to deliver instruction and follow-up support.
•Venue setup and AV support for in-person presentations.
The rise in internet scams and identity theft targeting residents—particularly seniors—
underscores the need for proactive education. This training initiative is already making a
meaningful impact and, with continued support from the CCPD Board, we can expand its
reach and effectiveness in the coming year.

The Flock Camera System has become a critical public safety and investigative tool for
the Trophy Club Police Department. Strategically installed at all Town entrances, the
system monitors inbound traffic, flags vehicles tied to criminal activity, and helps officers
respond to threats quickly and effectively.
We are currently in Year 3 of a 5-year contract with Flock Safety. For FY 2025, we are
requesting funding to continue supporting this program and to expand coverage by
adding two outbound-facing cameras. This enhancement will improve our ability to
monitor and investigate vehicles exiting the Town following reported crimes or alerts.
Program Impact (Last 6 Months)
The most recent six-month performance review (ending January 1, 2025) highlights the
system’s effectiveness:
•607 alerts generated
•204 system uses by TCPD officers
•9 arrests, including multiple felony warrant subjects
•65 actionable alerts in December alone
•49 investigative searches
•4 training/system tests
•Zero complaints or misuse reported
Only one camera required maintenance, demonstrating improved system reliability.
Expansion Recommendation
Traffic and enforcement data show that Trophy Lake Drive and Bobcat Boulevard are
two of the most commonly used outbound routes, including by individuals attempting to
evade police. We recommend installing two additional outbound-facing cameras at:
•Trophy Lake Drive
•Bobcat Boulevard
Page 20 of 25
This upgrade will enhance real-time alerting and assist in identifying suspect vehicles
leaving the Town.
FY 2025 - 2026 funding will support:
•Year 3 of the 5-year contract with Flock Safety
•System software access and maintenance
•Data transparency and public reporting
•Installation of two additional cameras
•Officer training and usage monitoring
The Flock Camera System is a key component of our technology-driven approach to
community policing and criminal interdiction. Continued investment ensures the safety of
Trophy Club residents while promoting accountability and effectiveness in law
enforcement operations.
Thank you for your ongoing support of this essential program.

In FY 2024–2025, the Trophy Club Police Department enhanced its traffic safety
program with the acquisition of a radar speed trailer. This trailer displays real-time
vehicle speeds, communicates safety messages, and captures critical traffic data
including:
•Vehicle speed by time of day and day of the week
•Driver response behavior (speed reduction)
•Traffic volumes in problem-prone areas
The device has been deployed strategically throughout the Town to evaluate speed trends
and guide targeted enforcement and education efforts. The community response has been
positive, and early results confirm that the trailer contributes to greater driver awareness
and public safety.

data-driven decision-making in areas with high pedestrian and school-related traffic.
FY 2025–2026 Expansion Request
To build on the program’s success, we are requesting funding for the purchase of a
smaller, portable radar sign. This device will:
•Enhance flexibility in traffic calming operations
•Allow for quick relocation using pre-installed mounting brackets
•Increase our ability to monitor and respond to changing traffic patterns
Brackets will be installed at multiple high-priority locations around town to enable
efficient rotation and maximize coverage with minimal labor.
The radar trailer has already proven itself a valuable investment in public safety and
community trust. Expanding the program with a another, portable unit will increase
visibility, responsiveness, and effectiveness in addressing speeding and traffic safety
concerns.
