Additional Cops Qn Beats Rated As Impractical
Kenosha police chief Stan ley G Haukedahl says adding walking patrolmen is impractical due to a manpower shortage. Councilman Edward Wavro proposed more foot patrols at the June 5 meeting. The chief warns such a move would force transferring squad car personnel and could raise crime by reducing patrol car effectiveness. He notes Kenosha averages fewer officers per 1000 residents than state and national peers and says current patrol cars are already maximized. He supports adding walkers only if it does not cripple squad car patrols.
