Ottawa Police Aims for CALEA Accreditation
Ottawa Police Department pursues CALEA accreditation, a status reached by about 4 percent of U.S. non federal law enforcement agencies. The three year process includes self assessment, public feedback, and on site review. Ottawa Chief Dennis Butler notes CALEA standards cover all aspects from internal performance to how arrestees are treated. Sgt. Robbie Hawkins leads the accreditation effort as department self checks continue. If achieved, Ottawa would be the smallest Kansas agency accredited, joining six other Kansas agencies already certified.
