COPS 8 Goals

Goals: The Captain's Most Wanted List

Captain Edwin Hosli, Jr:

"We appreciate all that COPS 8 has done for us in the past. Now, post-Katrina, with even less available from the City, we need COPS 8 all the more to cover our increased equipment and service needs."

Here are the Captain's Wishes for 2007-2008:

1. Create an atmosphere in the station that will motivate and energize the Officers to take pride in their "home."

Most needed are fresh paint on the walls and new flooring. Go see for yourself! Estimated total cost: $45,000

2. Maintain a monthly operating fund sufficient to cover the daily necessities in order to function effectively ($1000).

3. Purchase 6 new Vespa scooters to increase visibility and mobility ($6600 each).

4. Purchase 2 Polaris Ranger industrial-grade utility vehicles for the Officers assigned to Bourbon Street ($8000 each).
