Discussion:
Police Chief Steve Hensel stated that True Canine International (TCI) would provide the K9 and all of the training necessary for both the K9 and the chosen handler to meet all state requirements. Sergeant Jon Pucket talked about TCI's training process being different than most other programs, and that this will set the bar high for other communities with a K9 unit. Through a selection process, the Police Department chose Officer Audrey Arbuckle to be Crete's very first K9 handler. City Administrator Tom Ourada informed the Committee that Officer Arbuckle is now living in Crete, which allows for the quickest response time whenever they are needed for action. Police Chief Hensel commented that this is not only a department-wide change, but will be a positive change for the whole community.
