In the continued pursuit for excellence, the SPD is scheduled for a site-based review and assessment, February 26-28, 2024, as part of a program to achieve accreditation by verifying the agency meets professional standards. Administered by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc, the accreditation program requires agencies to comply with contemporary standards in four basic areas: policy and procedures, administration, operations, and support services.
CALEA Accreditation Public Comment Portal
As part of the assessment, agency employees and members of the community are invited to offer comments through the use of an electronic public portal located at www.salina-ks.gov/police.
Once the web page is accessed, the user can scroll down to find the "CALEA Accreditation Public Comment Portal."
Click on the icon to proceed and submit your comments. When completed, simply click on "send feedback."
The public comment portal is open continuously. The Department appreciates you taking the opportunity to comment on SPD's compliance with CALEA standards, the delivery of public safety standards to the community, and the overall candidacy for accredited status.
