18 and maybe we lost connection -- (inaudible) --
19 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: It sounds like it went
20 dead.
21 MR. CEDERBERG: Yes.
22 MR. TWEETEN: I guess we should all call
23 in again.
24 MR. CEDERBERG: Okay. I'm going to hang

8 MS. BOLGER: Mary Ann, this is Katrina.

11 them hung up and are going to call back in.
12 MS. KEUNE: Can you hear me, Katrina?
13 MS. BOLGER: Yes, I can hear you now,
14 but you guys cut out after you started having the
15 guests introduce themselves.
16 MS. KEUNE: Okay. All righty.
17 (Inaudible conversation)
18 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: If each of you would
19 identify yourselves as you come on line. I think

8 MR. JOHNSON: Good morning, Gen.
9 MS. STASIAK: Good morning.
10 MR. TWEETEN: Perry, this is Chris
11 Tweeten. I think all of your folks on the phone
12 got cut off.
13 MR. JOHNSON: They're back.
14 MR. TWEETEN: Are they back? Okay.
15 Well, I'm dialing in again, so I'm here.
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Anyone else on the
17 call that has not identified themselves?
18 MR. TOLSON: Did you get me, Tony? This
19 is Truman.
20 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Yes, we did, Truman.
21 Thank you. I guess anything before we move to
22 approval on the minutes?
23 MR. JOHNSON: No.
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Everyone received a

Page 8

1 MR. JOHNSON: Wait a minute. Mary Ann,
2 have you got something?
3 MS. KEUNE: I don't have everybody's --
4 sorry. I have to go call.
5 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I would entertain a
6 motion to approve the minutes of the May 31st
7 meeting.
8 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: So moved.
9 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Second.
10 MS. BURDICK: Second. Kimberly.
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I have a motion and
12 a second to approve the minutes of the previous
13 meeting. We'll move to an immediate vote. All
14 those in favor, please signify by saying aye.
15 (Response)
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Opposed, same sign.
17 (No response)
18 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Motion carries. We
19 have time now set aside for public comment.
20 Anyone who would like to make a comment from the
21 public.
22 MR. CEDERBERG: This is Dan Cederberg,
23 and my interest in the meeting is with regard to
24 the ARMs that are going to be considered later,
25 the next agenda item, I guess. And I wasn't sure
Page 9
8
1 if there was going to be time during the ARM
2 discussion for public comment. If so, I'll
3 reserve my comments until then. If not, I'll make
4 my comments now.
5 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Dan, if you would be
6 willing to hold that until the ARMs discussion,
7 that would be fine. You will given an
8 opportunity.
9 MR. CEDERBERG: Great. Thank you.
10 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Chief DiFonzo.
11 MR. DiFONZO: Yes. I don't know if this
12 is the right time to bring this up, but I'm here
13 to get some clarification on that decision not to
14 accept the Minnesota standards for certification.
15 One of the big problems we have, we're getting a
16 lot of kids out of Minnesota that have completed
17 their training over there, but they're not getting
18 hired until they get a job.
19 I understand they're not getting hired,
20 they can't get their certification over there
21 until they get a job. Well, they're not getting
22 hired in Minnesota with the --- (inaudible) -- and
23 I'm under the impression now that -- in fact I
24 know it is because the last guy that I sent up
25 there had to go through the entire course.
Page 10
9
1 And I guess I'm wondering what was the
2 reasoning for changing that. I know at one time
3 we accepted them, and I guess I'm a little
4 distressed that we have to go through that when we
5 already have an -- (inaudible) -- extensive law
6 enforcement training.
7 So if I understood the reasoning behind
8 it why they hadn't been hired, so therefore they
9 couldn't be considered certified. It's kind of a
10 Catch-22 situation. They can't get hired in
11 Minnesota, so that's not their fault. That's
12 because of the economy, I guess. I don't know
13 what the reasoning was. But when they come to me,
14 they've got plenty of training. I'm sure they've
15 got more training than what we give them.
16 So I need to get some clarification on
17 why we changed our minds on that, whether there
18 are any other states that are allowing, that we're
19 allowing to be certified without going through the
20 Academy. So I mean it would be very helpful to me
21 to know when I take somebody on whether it's going
22 to cost me several thousand dollars to get them
23 trained again, when they've already got a
24 background in law enforcement. So maybe the Board
25 can give me some clarification on that.
Page 11
10
1 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. Hey, you
2 know what we didn't do is we've been having our
3 minutes transcribed, so today I would ask anybody
4 that speaks in the meeting to start out by saying,
5 "Hey, this is Chief DiFonzo," or Leo Dutton, or
6 Perry, and that way it's easier for the
7 transcriptionist when she finally gets the meeting
8 minutes.
9 But everybody that's in the room should
10 have one of these as a legal reference, and I
11 think the best thing for us to do is to go to the
12 statute 7-32-303. The statutes are in here by
13 number, so I think you'll find it on Page 18 and
14 19.
15 And Chief, your question relates to an
16 officer -- it would be under 5(c) on Page 19,
17 where it says, "Peace officer referred to in
18 subsection 5(b), or a peace officer who has
19 completed a basic peace officers course that is
20 taught by federal, state, or military law
21 enforcement agency, and that is reviewed and
22 approved by the Montana Public Safety Officer
23 Standards and Training as equivalent with current
24 training in Montana, and whose last date of
25 employment as a peace officer was less than 60
Page 12
11
1 months."
2 And we've got Chris Tweeten on the phone
3 as well, so he may be able to explain something
4 that I may omit. But the interpretation has been
5 that they have to have attended an academy that
6 would be approved as equivalent to Montana's. And
7 Minnesota's program, they've got a couple of dozen
8 academies that would do that. They do. They
9 don't have a state academy. They're all going
10 through a college program in Minnesota.
11 But the interpretation that we've
12 received from our Legal Counsel is that they have
13 to have that, and they have to because it says,
14 "and whose last date of employment as a peace
15 officer was less than five years ago." They have
16 to have been employed in another state before
17 we'll recognize that, before we'll even look at
18 that equivalency.
19 So those guys in Minnesota -- and we did
20 this three or four years ago, right after I
21 started. We approved a couple of them fellows.
22 But when we got to looking at that, and we talked
23 to our Legal Counsel, he said, "I don't think that
24 it is possible for you to waive that employment
25 component of the statute, and Administrative Rule
Page 13
12
1 as part of the statute, that they have had to have
2 been employed."
3 I don't know if that is clear to you, or
4 if you want Chris to talk to it. Chris Tweeten is
5 on the phone if you want him to talk to us about
6 that.
7 MR. DiFONZO: This is Frank again. I
8 guess my question is this. When we send them to
9 the Academy for equivalency training, what I'm
10 wondering about is what are getting trained here
11 that they're not getting when they attend the
12 college in Minnesota? What it is that we're
13 teaching them that they have not been already been
14 taught, other than Montana law, which we took care
15 of by sending them to the equivalency course.
16 I mean I think people understand that,
17 and it is not easy to find qualified people
18 anymore, especially where we come from, where we
19 don't have a lot of tree huggers, and everybody
20 wants to stay over in the woods. Nobody wants to
21 come to the prairie.
22 My point here is I think you made it a
23 little harder on us. Is there a way we can either
24 address the statute to allow for some sort of a
25 test process, so if they come in and they meet a
Page 14
13
1 qualification, meet our qualification, they can
2 take a test to see whether they'd have to go
3 through the Academy or not. I see where they are
4 being taught the basic stuff that we're teaching.
5 You need to make it a little easier for
6 us to recruit, because we're not getting a lot of
7 qualified people without mile long criminal
8 records that want to come to eastern Montana. And
9 I really don't see a reason to make it tougher,
10 when I've got a kid that's been to the academy or
11 been to a school for three years to get training
12 in law enforcement, can't get a job in his home
13 state to get certified, so he has to come to North
14 Dakota -- God forbid -- or Montana -- God forbid.
15 And keeping them is another issue. But we need to
16 do something to help us out on that.
17 MR. DIAL: Mr. Chairman.
18 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Bill.
19 MR. DIAL: Frank, this is no disrespect
20 to you, but we tend to do this -- this is a point
21 of order. Public comment is public comment.
22 We're not supposed to address issues during public
23 comment because the Board is not informed.
24 And I think that what Frank is asking is
25 something that you as the Executive Director could
Page 15
14
1 address with him, and perhaps our Legal Counsel,
2 but for us to go off on a tangent like we have in
3 the past before, and Board members not being
4 informed, and not being ready to respond, is
5 improper in my mind. I don't know how the rest of
6 the Board feels.
7 MR. THOMAS: This is Jim. Can we just
8 set it as an agenda item on the next meeting?
9 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, this is
10 Chris Tweeten.
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Go ahead, Chris.
12 MR. TWEETEN: I think that is the proper
13 procedure. This is not an item that's on the
14 agenda for today's consideration, and anybody else
15 in the state who has an interest in this subject
16 is not on notice, because of our agenda, that this
17 is an issue that we'd be taking up today.
18 So I think it would be inappropriate to
19 engage in any extended discussion about this, and
20 I think the proper procedure would be to hold it
21 out as an agenda item for the next meeting,
22 assuming it can't be dealt with between now and
23 then. And if it is something that the Council has
24 to consider, then it would be on an agenda, and
25 other people will be on notice that this is
Page 16
15
1 something we're going to take action on.
2 And that's actually a pretty firm
3 requirement for agencies now, that they not take
4 up matters that aren't on the agenda, because of
5 the public's right to know and right to
6 participate in the Council's proceedings.
7 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Frank, are you --
8 MR. DiFRONZO: I have to get a meeting
9 in our part of the state where I can come in and
10 talk to the POST Council, and now I'm told I've
11 got to come to Missoula, or wherever the damn
12 meeting is going to be the next time.
13 MR. DIAL: You don't have to, Frank. I
14 mean we could put it on as an item and discuss it,
15 and you can call in. I just don't want to get us
16 sideways with procedural matters. And I
17 understand where you're coming from. But we've
18 had this issue come up before. This is Bill
19 again. So that's why I brought it up. I
20 understand where you're coming from.
21 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry, and here's
22 what I guess I would offer to you, Frank, is if it
23 is necessary, I'll travel to Sidney and I'll sit
24 down with you, and we'll go over this, because
25 you've asked about what the remedy would be, and I
Page 17
16
1 think between you and I, we could discuss that,
2 and we could bring this -- I could carry this back
3 on the next agenda with some possible options for
4 the Council to consider.
5 MR. DiFRONZO: This is Frank. But I'm
6 always of the opinion if I show up and talk to
7 people face-to-face, I get way more attention. I
8 can guarantee you that if we put it on the agenda,
9 I'll be at the next meeting, because you don't rid
10 of me that easy. I will come back and talk. But
11 I would like to at least get something started on
12 this, because when it was done, it took us by
13 surprise, and it really cost me some qualified
14 applicants that had applied. So anyway, I'll
15 yield to whatever your procedure is. I don't have
16 a problem with that.
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Any
18 other guest or public comment issues?
19 (No response)
20 MR. JOHNSON: John, did you want to add
21 to that discussion?
22 MR. DYNNESON: If you travel to Sidney,
23 you can come visit me, too, on this matter.
24 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Okay. Thank you.
25 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Moving to old
Page 18
17
1 business. The first item is the ARMs. Do you
2 want to --
3 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. I
4 think what I would do is I would yield the floor
5 to Chris Tweeten, and he can kind of lead us
6 through this.
7 Well, actually, let me go to Page 59 and
8 61 on our meeting material. I'll take care of
9 that one. Because during our last POST Council
10 meeting, we got the ARMs, and the ARM Committee
11 met, and we needed to fill in the blank on some of
12 the firearms instructor elements. So we did that.
13 And we've included -- I've got that page cite
14 right, actually we're on Page 62, the firearms
15 proficiency standards. We were talking about what
16 we would need to do.
17 (Inaudible conversation)
18 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Okay.
19 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: 60.
20 MR. JOHNSON: Page 60?
21 MS. KEUNE: 59.
22 MR. JOHNSON: 59.
23 MS. KEUNE: And that's not highlighted
24 in everybody's packet.
25 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Under Subsection
Page 19
18
1 (b)(8) where it talks about you and I --
2 (inaudible) --
3 (Inaudible conversation)
4 MR. JOHNSON: There you go. It is
5 23.13.215. Those are the elements that will be
6 required for the 49 firearms instructor training
7 course or its equivalent. So we didn't have those
8 blanks filled in during our last Council meeting,
9 and we went back to the cadre at MLEA and filled
10 those in.
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any questions or
12 comments in regards to that ARM?
13 (No response)
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Are we ready for
15 Chris?
16 MR. JOHNSON: I think we are.
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Chris, are you
18 there?
19 MR. TWEETEN: I am. Thank you, Mr.
20 Chairman. Just to recap just how we got to the
21 agenda for today's meeting. You recall that we've
22 been discussing another set of amendments to our
23 Administrative Rules for several meeting now, and
24 the Business Committee and the ARM Committee got
25 together and drafted up these proposed
Page 20
19
1 Administrative Rules for the Council's
2 consideration.
3 And at the last meeting in May, the
4 Council went through these rule by rule, and
5 authorized -- after making a significant number of
6 changes in the initial draft -- authorized the
7 staff to proceed with a notice of proposed
8 rulemaking, and we set a date for a rulemaking
9 hearing at that time, and we issued our proposed
10 notice, our notice of proposed rulemaking, as
11 required by the Montana Administrative Procedure
12 Act, or MAPA as I'll be calling it, M-A-P-A, from
13 time to time.
14 And that Administrative Rule hearing was
15 held on I believe September 3rd, if I'm not
16 mistaken. Anyway at the beginning of September.
17 And I was not available to come to Helena that day
18 for the hearing, so Sarah Clerget presided over
19 the hearing.
20 And at the hearing, there was again very
21 little in terms of public comment on the proposed
22 rules. The one substantive comment that we did
23 receive at the hearing was from a lawyer lobbyist
24 Jon Metropolis who represents Missoula
25 Correctional Services, and Mr. Metropolis made a
Page 21
20
1 statement for the administrative hearing record,
2 in which he suggested the couple of changes in the
3 proposed ARMs that would have provided for the
4 Council's certification of pretrial services
5 officers who are employed by both governmental and
6 non-governmental agencies.
7 And recall, this is a subject that we've
8 had a great deal of discussion about over the past
9 couple of years. It was a subject that was deeply
10 involved in the legislation that POST proposed for
11 the last legislative session that was ultimately
12 passed and then vetoed by the Governor. So it is
13 a subject that we've talked about in great deal
14 previously.
15 And the comment that Mr. Metropolis made
16 was that the two amendments ought to be placed on
17 the rules to specifically provide for the
18 certification of pretrial services officers as a
19 separate category of basic certificate, along with
20 law enforcement basic and all of the other basics
21 that POST issues certificates on.
22 Mr. Metropolis made that comment
23 verbally, and recited into the record at that time
24 what the proposed amendments would be, and
25 indicated that a written statement would be
Page 22
21
1 submitted for the hearing record prior to the
2 expiration of the time for submitting written
3 statements with respect to the rules, and that in
4 fact was done, and that is in your packet. It is
5 the Sue Wilkins letter that's in your packet that
6 goes into some detail in trying to explain why
7 these proposed amendments ought to be placed on
8 the rule.
9 After the expiration of the time for
10 submitting written comments, the MCS submitted
11 what was intended to be an attachment to that
12 written testimony from Sue Wilkins that consisted
13 of a copy of our proposed rules with the suggested
14 changes inserted and highlighted in the area where
15 those two amendments would be, and that is also in
16 your packet. I don't know what page it starts on,
17 but it is in the packet.
18 So the first question that rose from the
19 staff was: Well, should the Council be
20 considering this attachment in light of the fact
21 that it was not submitted in writing prior to the
22 deadline for written submission of views? Now,
23 remember, I'm just talking about the attachment at
24 this point, which is the copy of the proposed
25 rules with the highlighting on it, not the Wilkins
Page 23
22
1 letter, which itself was submitted in a timely
2 fashion, as I understand it. So the question is
3 whether the Council ought to be considering that.
4 My suggestion would be to go ahead and
5 consider it, in light of the fact that it is
6 simply a written reiteration of the verbal
7 testimony that Mr. Metropolis made at the
8 rulemaking hearing, in which he recited the
9 substance of those two amendments verbally into
10 the record. And since it is in the record already
11 verbally, I don't think there is any problem with
12 considering the written showing of what he'd
13 already put into the record in his oral testimony.
14 So I don't think that's an issue that the Council
15 should get hung up on at this point.
16 And the question I think ought to be
17 addressed on its merits as to whether POST wants
18 to consider any changes to the proposed rules in
19 light of the suggestions that have been made by
20 Missoula Correctional Services. And just to
21 summarize those, the proposed amendments would add
22 pretrial services officers to the category of
23 basic certificates that POST would issue, and then
24 would make a similar change farther down in the
25 rules to carry that intended change forward.
Page 24
23
1 So that really lays out I think the
2 proposal, and then the question is: What's the
3 Council's pleasure, I guess, with respect to how
4 it wants to handle these proposed changes?
5 So Perry, with that, I guess I'd suggest
6 that Mr. Cederberg and anybody else who is present
7 and has comment with respect to those proposed
8 changes ought to be heard at this point. I would
9 caution them, however, that the time for
10 submitting comments has passed, and anything other
11 than a reiteration of the written comments that
12 are in Ms. Wilkins' -- whether you call it written
13 testimony, memorandum, proposed letter, whatever
14 -- the writing that she submitted prior to the
15 expiration of that deadline.
16 Anything that goes beyond the scope of
17 that particularly document would be an untimely
18 comment, and may not be considered by the Council
19 in deciding whether to adopt these changes.
20 So Mr. Chairman, I would suggest that at
21 this point we receive whatever presentation Mr.
22 Cederberg and anybody else who's interested in
23 this subject might want to make, and then come
24 back for discussion by the Council.
25 MR. DIAL: Thank you, Chris. I have a
Page 25
24
1 question.
2 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Mr. Cederberg --
3 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Chief Dial yields to
4 Mr. Cederberg. Sir, if you have comments, we
5 would take them at this time.
6 MR. CEDERBERG: Thank you. I appreciate
7 that. My name is Dan Cederberg, I'm an attorney
8 in Missoula, and I represent Missoula Correctional
9 Services. Missoula Correctional Services operates
10 a pretrial services program in Missoula.
11 And I would first draw your attention to
12 the last paragraph of the comments that were made
13 that talks about the practical effect of the
14 pretrial services program that we provide. The
15 costs of incarceration in Missoula County jail
16 ranges between $70 and $100 per day. The cost of
17 supervising somebody on our pretrial service
18 program is roughly $6.71 a day. So the program
19 provides an enormous savings to Missoula County
20 with folks that can be placed on pretrial services
21 supervision rather than incarcerated.
22 It also has the -- if the option were to
23 put them in jail or put them on pretrial services,
24 and the extent indicated that they would not be
25 put on pretrial services, then they would not be
Page 26
25
1 supervised. They would be out unsupervised. And
2 so there is a significant public safety issue
3 involved here. We've got a program that lets
4 people out on pretrial, be supervised in a very
5 cost effective way. So that adds to public
6 safety.
7 And then of course we're all familiar
8 with the overcrowding in the jail system
9 throughout the state, all the way from local to
10 the state level. And the folks that are in our
11 program who otherwise may have been in jail really
12 help with the overcrowding situation.
13 So those are the -- that's what the
14 program does. And basically why we're here today
15 is we think that the couple of amendments need to
16 be made to the proposed ARMs that allow for the
17 continued availability of pretrial services
18 officers. We currently have two in Missoula that
19 -- (inaudible) -- we would like to be able to
20 continue the program. And we think we need these
21 changes to the ARM in order to allow for the
22 continuation of new officers that need to come on
23 line.
24 A couple of other things I'd point out.
25 This does not deal at all with misdemeanor
Page 27
26
1 probation officers, which has been another topic.
2 I would further point out that there is, with
3 regard to the issue of private entities having
4 officers with arrest power, I know that that's an
5 issue that's been much discussed by POST, and that
6 is not an issue here, because the statute that
7 deals with the pretrial services officers, Section
8 3 of 46-9-505 specifically allows for arrest by
9 the pretrial services officers.
10 So we have a statutory framework that
11 specifically allows that. That issue isn't on the
12 table here today with regard to the arrest
13 authority.
14 I hope that the Board will view this as
15 simply helping us get some clarification, and
16 clean up some ARM regulations in a fashion that
17 will allow for the continuation of a very
18 beneficial program, and that is what we're doing
19 here. We think we need your help.
20 A few clarifying things in the
21 specifics. I think Mr. Tweeten went through the
22 specifics. There are two additions that will be
23 made to the ARMs. One is on the section Page 1217
24 of the additions, which adds the language there
25 that recognizes that the certification will go for
Page 28
27
1 full or part-time employees of pretrial services
2 agency as referred to in 46-9-108(1)(f). Once
3 again, that I think is just -- that's the
4 statutory reference that authorizes the pretrial
5 services agencies and their employees.
6 And then the second one is very basic,
7 very simple. On Section -- ARMs 23.13.206, there
8 is a list of basic certificates, and you just need
9 to add pretrial services officers to that list.
10 So that's why we're here today. That's
11 why we've made the comments in the proposed
12 changes. We have a good viable program that's
13 doing good work, and we just need to clean up the
14 ARMs so that we can continue.
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Chief.
16 MR. DIAL: This is Bill Dial. Chris, my
17 question to you is: Since these suggestions or
18 amendments were sent to us after the deadline,
19 what would be the legal ramifications for us to --
20 (inaudible) --
21 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, Bill, as I
22 tried to explain in my opening comments on this
23 agenda item, the written iteration of these was
24 not received within the time set for receiving
25 public comment on the proposed rules. That's
Page 29
28
1 correct. But my recollection of the rules hearing
2 -- and I think Perry and Katrina would bear this
3 out -- they were also -- I wasn't in Helena for
4 the rules hearing, but I was listening by
5 telephone.
6 And these amendments were proposed
7 verbally by John Metropolis, their representative
8 for Missoula Correctional Services at the hearing
9 itself; and all that was submitted after the
10 deadline was a written visualization of those
11 verbal amendments that MCS's representative
12 proposed at the rulemaking hearing.
13 So I don't think there is any problem
14 with considering the entire subject. Ms. Wilkins'
15 written submission was received prior to the
16 deadline, so all of the argumentation that is in
17 that document is certainly appropriately before
18 the Council. And I think the substance of the
19 proposed amendments is properly before the Council
20 because of Mr. Metropolis's oral testimony.
21 So all that you see in front of you is a
22 written representation of the material that was
23 verbally presented at the hearing, and then
24 reiterated and expanded upon by Ms. Wilkins in her
25 written submission. So I think receiving that
Page 30
29
1 material and considering this issue is perfectly
2 appropriate.
3 MR. DIAL: Thank you, Chris. I slept a
4 little bit too fast. I didn't hear you. Thank
5 you.
6 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Other comments?
7 Questions?
8 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. I'm sorry,
9 Ryan.
10 MR. OSTER: Go ahead.
11 MR. JOHNSON: Just in regards then to
12 what the amendments are, and we're on Page 73 in
13 our book. It is 1217 at the top. It is under
14 23.13.205, general requirements for certification.
15 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, this is
16 Chris. I inadvertently disconnected my phone.
17 Sorry about that. But I'm back.
18 MR. JOHNSON: Okay. So under Sub (1)
19 there is an addition there, "For a full-time or
20 part-time employee of a pretrial services agency
21 as referred to in 46-9-108 sub (1) sub (f)." So
22 we capture those pretrial services officers as
23 part of our definition, 44-4-401, because it is
24 any other officer that has training required by
25 POST.
Page 31
30
1 So that's there, except the ARM does
2 limit who we have oversight over, because it says
3 they must be employed by these other agencies. We
4 know that we have oversight over these other
5 folks. This would clarify that for a full-time or
6 part-time employee of a pretrial services agency
7 as referred to in 46-9-108. If you turn the page
8 then, and you'll go to 1218 at the top and 74 at
9 the bottom, 23.13.206, the addition there is
10 sub(d), pretrial services officer.
11 When there is a reference to that
12 46-9-108, that reference is to an employee of a
13 private pretrial services agency. They've got the
14 arrest power. Also part of that statute is
15 they've also made -- (inaudible) -- training
16 requirement as a probation and parole officer in
17 Montana. So to add a certificate, a basic
18 certificate for a pretrial services officer, they
19 must obtain the same training as a Probation and
20 Parole Officer.
21 We've had this discussion with Gallatin
22 Services already, and they have sent their
23 officers to that probation and parole training in
24 order to become certified as probation and parole
25 officers, to meet the requirements of that statute
Page 32
31
1 for pretrial services officers. So if Missoula
2 Correctional Services is able to obtain that
3 training, it would be certified as a probation and
4 parole officer.
5 And I think what is significant to the
6 Council, and probably to DOC and to MCS, is if
7 that officer goes through that training, and it is
8 approved as equivalent by this Council, and the
9 instructors are approved, and they obtain the
10 training and they get that certificate, if at some
11 point they choose to leave a private employer and
12 apply to DOC, that would be a viable candidate
13 then. They've got the correct training that's
14 necessary to fulfill that requirement. And that's
15 a requirement of statute.
16 I think that the discussion that we had
17 with the ARM committee, and that's Bill Dial,
18 Lewis Smith, and Leo Dutton, was that it is
19 appropriate to continue to issue a probation and
20 parole certificate, and that's the message that we
21 carried back to the Council during our last
22 meeting.
23 So that's probably just very clear and
24 concise, but that's kind of how we landed where we
25 did without that additional certificate. Mr.
Page 33
32
1 Chairman.
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any other comments?
3 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, this is
4 Chris Tweeten. Can I ask Mr. Cederberg a
5 question?
6 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Go ahead.
7 MR. TWEETEN: Sure. Dan, the statute as
8 Perry has outlined it sets forth training
9 requirements for pretrial services officers, but
10 it doesn't say anything about them needing to be
11 certified as pretrial services officers before
12 they can be employed; and I haven't found anything
13 that speaks to the question of a requirement that
14 there be some specific certification for pretrial
15 services officers in addition to having them meet
16 those particular education requirements.
17 I guess my question is: Have I missed
18 something? Is there something that you're aware
19 of in the statutes that speaks to the subject of
20 certification as a separate question from meeting
21 educational requirements?
22 MR. CEDERBERG: I'm not sure I
23 understand your question, Chris. I mean I think
24 we need to have the -- before we have the arrest
25 authority, we need to meet the educational
Page 34
33
1 requirements and get certified. That's been our
2 feeling, and we absolutely support that. We 100
3 percent want the folks to have the training, and
4 in fact have submitted a very long training
5 regimen outside the MLEA that would meet those
6 requirements.
7 But we just feel like they should have
8 the basic certificate. That's what they need.
9 They are the same as the probation and parole
10 folks in that sense. That's our reading of the
11 statute. Now, if we're misreading the statute,
12 then that is -- that's what I don't understand
13 about your question.
14 MR. TWEETEN: My question is based on
15 the concept that training is one thing and
16 certification is another. And reading the
17 statute, it specifically talks about the
18 requirements for training, but it doesn't say
19 anything about requiring in addition to the
20 training that they receive a specific pretrial
21 services certificate. Do you follow me so far?
22 MR. CEDERBERG: Okay. Yes. I'm not
23 sure I would agree with that. Let me see if I can
24 find the --
25 MR. TWEETEN: That was my question. Is
Page 35
34
1 there something that speaks to the question of
2 certification that I'm not finding here?
3 MR. CEDERBERG: I'm looking at
4 46.23.1003. Let's see. So your position would be
5 that we don't need the certificate to have the
6 pretrial services officers perform duties as a
7 pretrial services officer, and you would -- going
8 back to back to our discussion with the Missoula
9 County Attorney's office of a year and a half or
10 two years ago now -- you would feel that if the
11 educational requirements -- and I think they're in
12 ARM 23.13.304 -- are met, then no certification
13 would be necessary?
14 MR. TWEETEN: No. That's not my
15 position. That's my question. I don't have a
16 position at this point. I'm just trying to make
17 sure that I haven't overlooked something that
18 speaks directly to the question of certification.
19 MS. BOLGER: Chris, this is Katrina.
20 Can I try to rephrase what I think you're trying
21 to say?
22 MR. TWEETEN: Sure. If you want. It is
23 all right with me if it is all right with the
24 Chairman.
25 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Go ahead, Katrina.
Page 36
35
1 MS. BOLGER: Mr. Cederberg, I think what
2 Chris is trying to drive at is: Why do your
3 officers need a pretrial services certificate as
4 opposed to a probation and parole certificate?
5 What is the problem with them just getting a
6 probation and parole basic certificate once they
7 meet the requirements?
8 MR. CEDERBERG: Well, now I'm looking at
9 Perry Johnson's memo. So he's finding that -- and
10 I'm looking at 23.1003(2). Well, these folks not
11 all have the probation and parole certificate.
12 And you know, the problem with that is the MLEA
13 will not admit non-public employees, so they can't
14 get the probation and parole certificate.
15 MS. BOLGER: Mr. Cederberg, this is
16 Katrina again. There is a provision in the
17 statute for the POST Council to waive the
18 requirement that that academy take place at the
19 MLEA.
20 MR. CEDERBERG: Right, and that's where
21 this all started I think back in 2012. We came in
22 and requested that you do that, and like I said,
23 provided a curriculum to do that. And if we can
24 go forward with that, and get our pretrial
25 services officers trained outside of the MLEA with
Page 37
36
1 your blessing on the curriculum, that would be
2 helpful. I mean that would be great. That would
3 really help us move forward. And like I said,
4 that's where we started five years ago.
5 Is that what your position would be
6 then? Is that what POST's position would be, is
7 that without this amendment to the ARMs in
8 23.13.206 adding pretrial services officers as
9 someone who will get a basic certificate, that we
10 could have our training, and get the blessing of
11 POST without that?
12 I mean that is all we're interested in
13 doing, and we thought we needed this in order to
14 do that. Now, if POST doesn't feel that way, and
15 we can move forward with that way, we don't have a
16 problem with that.
17 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, Dan. At its
18 last meeting in May, POST adopted a resolution
19 that specifically addressed the question of where
20 pretrial services officers who are not employed by
21 a public agency would appropriately receive their
22 training, and the sense of that resolution was
23 that the training ought to be gotten somewhere
24 other than MLEA.
25 So POST has no control over who MLEA
Page 38
37
1 chooses to admit or not, and that's a question
2 that's up to MLEA, and if MCS thinks they're
3 entitled to be admitted to MLEA, that's an issue
4 they need to take up with MLEA. But I think the
5 Council has done what it can do at this point to
6 short circuit that conflict within the MLEA -- if
7 conflict is the right word -- that issue, I guess,
8 within MLEA, because the Council has essentially
9 told you that you should get that training
10 somewhere else, and as long as it is approved by
11 POST as satisfying the requirements for probation
12 and parole training -- which is what the statute
13 requires -- outside of MLEA training that you get
14 would then be sufficient to satisfy your statutory
15 training requirement, I think, wouldn't it?
16 MR. CEDERBERG: I hope so. I mean all
17 we're trying to do is clear up the situation so we
18 can get our -- when we need new officers, we can
19 get them trained and authorized to serve in the
20 role as pretrial services officers. And I have
21 the memorandum in front of me here. And is this
22 what you're referring to? "POST finds pursuant to
23 46.23.1003(2) that the training required for
24 privately employed pretrial services officers
25 under 46-9-505 is more appropriately provided at a
Page 39
38
1 place of the employing agency's choice other than
2 MLEA. Missoula. The training must meet the
3 requirements of 23.13.304."
4 And if what you're saying today, Chris,
5 is that if we then come to POST with a training
6 program outside of MLEA that meets the ARM
7 requirements, that POST is good with that, and we
8 could get our officers trained as we need them?
9 Am I hearing you correctly?
10 MR. TWEETEN: I'd refer that question to
11 Perry, I think, if I can.
12 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. And I
13 guess just so everybody in the room is on the same
14 page, what he just read is on Page 90 in our --
15 and this is the discussion that we had during our
16 last Council meeting following our ARM Committee
17 meeting.
18 And that is exactly why we decided to
19 issue this memo, is to provide direction to the
20 pretrial services agencies that were looking for
21 that ability to train their officers. And it
22 comes back to exactly what's required by statute.
23 What the POST Council did was provide for those
24 agencies to seek a venue other than MLEA; and it
25 also maintains the requirement that the training
Page 40
39
1 must meet the requirements for those probation and
2 parole officers that the State is training.
3 So it has to be either equivalent to or
4 exceeding the requirements of the Department of
5 Corrections P&P training, and that training would
6 be reviewed by the Executive Director, just like
7 other training is, regional training is; and
8 syllabuses from MLEA are submitted and approved by
9 this Council as well.
10 So I guess I would go back, though, to
11 the initial amendment. I don't think that we lose
12 anything by clarifying on Page 73 by clarifying a
13 full or part-time employee of a pretrial services
14 agency, as long as they recognize that there is
15 not a pretrial service certificate. It is a P&P
16 certificate, because the curriculum is identical
17 to the P&P basic academy curriculum.
18 MR. SMITH: This is Lewis. We issue
19 then a certificate, they come to us and they say
20 first that their program meets this, and we
21 approve it; and then they come to us and say, "Our
22 people have completed this." They're going to get
23 a P&P certificate.
24 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. Once
25 they meet that minimum requirement of attendance
Page 41
40
1 at Basic Academy that's equivalent with basic, and
2 one year of employment, then they'll be qualified
3 to obtain that. But they must be certified.
4 That's part of the ARMs. All public safety
5 officers must be certified.
6 MS. BOLGER: Perry, this is Katrina. I
7 guess I just want to clarify to Mr. Cederberg that
8 this is sort of a matter of semantics as far as
9 the government employed pretrial service officers
10 that we have issued certificates to, they get a
11 probation and parole certificate because that's
12 the basic they attend.
13 And it is just like with a juvenile
14 detention officer. They don't get a juvenile
15 detention officer certificate, they get a
16 detention officer certificate, because that's the
17 basic they attend.
18 MR. CEDERBERG: Thank you. So if I'm
19 understanding correctly then, what we can do is go
20 into -- with our pretrial services folks, we can
21 bring to Perry a program that he will review that
22 is the equivalent of the P&P program; we can get
23 that done privately. Then once we come back, and
24 certify to POST that that program has been
25 completed by an individual, and they complete a
Page 42
41
1 year of employment, then they'll get a P&P
2 certificate which allows them to operate as a
3 public safety officer in the pretrial services
4 area. That's what I'm hearing; am I correct?
5 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. I
6 think the only thing you may have left out there,
7 Dan, is that after my review, that syllabus is
8 always provided to the Council at their meeting,
9 and then they have an opportunity to approve it
10 then. Following that, not annually, but
11 frequently, we look at any changes to any
12 syllabus, to any basic Academy class for final
13 approval before those trainings would be
14 conducted. But otherwise I think that we're on
15 the same page.
16 MR. CEDERBERG: Great. That I think is
17 where we wanted to be in 2012. So that would work
18 for us.
19 So I guess with that, I'm understanding
20 the question about the amendment to 23.13.206, and
21 not needing to specifically create a new
22 certification classification for pretrial services
23 officers. That's where you started, Chris; is
24 that right? That was your question for me?
25 MR. TWEETEN: That's right, Dan. In
Page 43
42
1 7-32-303, there is a requirement that POST issue a
2 certificate to a law enforcement officer, but
3 these folks are not law enforcement officers, they
4 are public safety officers.
5 MR. CEDERBERG: Right.
6 MR. TWEETEN: My question to you was:
7 Do you know of anything anywhere else in the
8 statute that speaks directly to the question of
9 requirements for certification of pretrial
10 services officers? Because I haven't found
11 anything. All I found is the references in the
12 statute to training requirements, and training and
13 certification are not the same thing, because
14 certification requires other things in addition to
15 training, like for example, successful completion
16 of a probation and parole and so forth.
17 So that was my question. I mean is
18 there something that draws that same, or completes
19 that same loop with respect to certification for
20 pretrial services officers, who are not covered
21 under 7-32-303? And I think the answer to that
22 question is no, but I wanted to make sure that I
23 hadn't missed something that you found that spoke
24 directly to that subject.
25 MR. CEDERBERG: No. The answer is no,
Page 44
43
1 Chris. You are correct. And I appreciate the
2 Council's time in getting to this resolution of
3 this matter. As I said, I believe that that fills
4 in, allows us to work with Perry to get a
5 curriculum together that can be approved by POST,
6 that can let us do our training outside MLEA, that
7 will allow us to continue our services. And
8 that's where we want to be, and with that, then we
9 do not need to do the amendment to 23.13.206 that
10 was proposed.
11 MR. SMITH: This is Lewis. So you're
12 withdrawing then your proposed amendment?
13 MR. CEDERBERG: Yes.
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any further comment
15 before we move to discussion on approval of the
16 ARM?
17 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, if I might,
18 just to nail down that last point.
19 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Go ahead, Chris.
20 MR. TWEETEN: I don't know if these
21 statutes are in your notebook, but POST, as
22 everybody knows, issues certification for public
23 safety communications officers. And in 7-31-203,
24 the Legislature has specifically required that
25 those officers be certified by POST. And in
Page 45
44
1 contrast, there is no similar statute that I'm
2 aware of -- and I've looked pretty hard -- dealing
3 with the requirement that pretrial services
4 officers be certified.
5 So I think POST can approve their
6 training, and if their training is approved, and
7 they take the training, my understanding would be
8 that they would be authorized to be employed in
9 a pretrial services agency, even if POST had not
10 certified them as pretrial services officers. And
11 then once they're employed, after they pass the
12 year of employment, POST will issue then a
13 probation and parole certificate because that's
14 the training that they've completed.
15 But that just falls within the general
16 scope of POST's responsibilities, and that's not
17 the result of some statute that's specific to
18 pretrial services officers. So I think that's the
19 contrast that I think exists with respect to this
20 particular category of public safety officers. I
21 think it is different from all of the other public
22 safety officer categories that POST deals with.
23 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you, Chris.
24 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, if I might.
25 I'm sorry. I cut somebody off.
Page 46
45
1 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. Chris, I
2 was just going to remind the Council that the ARM
3 23.13.201 requires that all public safety officers
4 must be certified, so I think that is the umbrella
5 that would capture this discussion, right?
6 MR. TWEETEN: Correct.
7 MR. JOHNSON: Okay.
8 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, if I might
9 follow up. There is one comment that we haven't
10 talked about yet, and that's found in your packet.
11 Let me go to the specific page here. I don't have
12 the packet in writing. I just have -- it is
13 online here, so --
14 But there is a comment from Ralph
15 Dawson, who is the Chief of Police in Fromberg, I
16 gather, dealing with the subject of taking an oath
17 with respect to the Code of Ethics. Chief Dawson
18 suggests that there is a significant benefit to
19 requiring each certified officer to swear to the
20 Code of Ethics in an oath, as opposed to simply
21 being bound to the Code of Ethics as a matter of
22 Administrative Rule, which is the approach that's
23 taken in these amendments.
24 You'll recall that the existing
25 Administrative Rule requires that the officer sign
Page 47
46
1 an oath attesting to acceptance of the Code of
2 Ethics, which as you'll remember, Sarah Clerget
3 has described as a problem for contested case
4 matters because there are officers out there who
5 have not signed the oath, but who -- and if those
6 officers get in trouble, then they will try to
7 resist a claim based on a violation of the Code of
8 Ethics, based on the argument that they never took
9 the oath.
10 So the rules changed the approach to
11 that by saying that once you accept employment,
12 you are deemed to have accepted the oath as well,
13 and any violation of the oath after that time is
14 actionable in front of POST in a suspension or
15 revocation or other disciplinary matter.
16 So Chief Dawson's point is the Council
17 may have, or seems to have overlooked the
18 intrinsic value of having the officer swear to the
19 provision of the Code of Ethics, as opposed to
20 simply being bound by them as a matter of
21 Administrative Rule.
22 I have drafted a suggested response to
23 that comment which is in your packet, and
24 basically what I suggest the POST response should
25 be is that while POST acknowledges the value of an
Page 48
47
1 oath, and is sympathetic to Chief Dawson's point
2 about the value of an oath, it has been pointed
3 out to us by a member of the Legislature that
4 there may be a constitutional difficulty with
5 requiring an oath from a law officer or public
6 safety officer that's different from the
7 constitutional oath that all officers have to
8 take, swearing to uphold, protect, and defend the
9 Constitution and so forth.
10 That was a point that was made to Perry
11 and Katrina at one of the hearings on the bill
12 that was going through the Legislature last time.
13 A member of the Legislature came up to them and
14 suggested that there was a constitutional defect
15 in the existing approach because of the fact that
16 there is no other oath that can be required than
17 the one that's in the Constitution; and by
18 requiring an oath be taken, POST may be violating
19 that provision.
20 So I think while this comment is well
21 intentioned, and raises a good point, the benefits
22 to be gained by avoiding that constitutional issue
23 I think justify adopting these rules as proposed,
24 and not making, or not leaving the rule as it is
25 as Chief Dawson suggests.
Page 49
48
1 I realize that was kind of a rambling
2 description, and I'd certainly entertain any
3 questions about it if there are questions.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any questions for
5 Chris?
6 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Chris, do you know in
7 the packet where your response is at?
8 MR. TWEETEN: Page 60, I guess Perry is
9 saying.
10 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. We've got
11 it covered here, Chris.
12 MR. TWEETEN: Okay. Right. And you'll
13 notice that I left the pretrial services officer
14 comment blank in that document that I drafted,
15 because I wasn't sure exactly what approach the
16 Council wanted to take.
17 And so what I will do is with respect to
18 Comments 2 and 3 in that document, if you can see
19 in there on what is Page 63 I guess of your
20 packet, I will draft a response that goes in that
21 space right there above the signature line for
22 Matt Kokenauer (phonetic) as our rule reviewer.
23 I'll draft a response that encapsulates the
24 discussion this morning, and the fact that the
25 proposed amendments suggested by MCS are not
Page 50
49
1 necessary to effectuate the pretrial services
2 program that's laid out by the Legislature,
3 because they speak to, the legislation speaks to
4 training rather than certification.
5 And POST will issue certification
6 equivalent to the training that these officers
7 have received under the existing categories of
8 certification that POST issues in basic form.
9 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any other comments?
10 Ryan.
11 MR. OSTER: So are we ready to approve
12 these?
13 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I think we're at the
14 point where I could entertain a motion.
15 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. Lewis, did
16 you have another question about the --
17 MR. SMITH: Just the oath comes when
18 you're accepting employment from the employer as a
19 member of the executive branch at that point in
20 time, and all we're doing is saying that you are
21 certified, and then the change we've made, we've
22 taken away the impediment that DOA has got to have
23 you take your oath of office, and now you're not
24 bound by the certification requirements required
25 by the Code of Ethics.
Page 51
50
1 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, this is
2 Chris. I think that's exactly right.
3 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. In
4 23.13.203, the Code of Ethics that's in Page 48 of
5 your ring binder, we do have that ability already,
6 and it is under sub (3) where it says, "All public
7 safety officers hired or sworn before this rule's
8 effective date are bound by the Code of Ethics."
9 So we don't lose anything by -- (inaudible) --
10 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: It is not up to us to
11 be swearing them. The employer is the one that
12 swears them in.
13 MR. JOHNSON: Right.
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Anything else?
15 (No response)
16 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: So I guess I would
17 move that we approve the responses to the proposed
18 ARMs. Is that the proper way to -- Do we need to
19 approve the response, or do we need to approve
20 the ARMS?
21 (Inaudible conversation)
22 MR. OSTER: Chris.
23 MR. TWEETEN: Yes, Mr. Chairman.
24 MR. OSTER: This is Ryan. Does our
25 motion need to be in the form of approving the
Page 52
51
1 ARMS or approving the responses to the ARMs?
2 MR. TWEETEN: I think you're approving
3 the ARMs for adoption, and then the next steps
4 would be after that. There are a number of
5 documents that need to be prepared and filed in
6 various places, including the Hearing Examiner's
7 report to the Council. There is an administrative
8 order that needs to be signed. There are I think
9 two or three other documents that need to be
10 prepared.
11 And all of that material needs to be
12 submitted in various places, and then the rules
13 would be submitted to the Secretary of State's
14 Office with the administrative order approving
15 them, which would have Chairman Harbaugh's
16 signature on it, and then the Secretary of State
17 would then publish the rules as adopted rules in
18 the Montana Administrative Register, and on the
19 date of that publication, the new rules would
20 become effective.
21 So all you would be doing today is
22 approving the rules or adopting the rules, I
23 guess, for --
24 MR. OSTER: As proposed.
25 MR. TWEETEN: As proposed.
Page 53
52
1 MR. CEDERBERG: This is Dan Cederberg.
2 And I think you need with the one amendment,
3 right?
4 MR. TWEETEN: I think I may have missed
5 your discussion on that point, Dan, because as I
6 said, I unintentionally disconnected my phone at
7 some point.
8 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: You're talking about
9 Comment No. 1 needing to be inserted ahead of
10 Comments 2 and 3?
11 MR. TWEETEN: No. I think -- Let me
12 back up here. I need to get the document in front
13 of me here, Mr. Chairman, so if I could just take
14 a moment.
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Go ahead.
16 MR. TWEETEN: The one proposed amendment
17 was the inclusion of pretrial services officer in
18 the list of basic certificates that POST would
19 issue, and I think it has been agreed by everybody
20 that that's not necessary.
21 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry, then,
22 Chris, and I think that that's the motion, or that
23 the amendment that Dan agreed to withdraw.
24 MR. CEDERBERG: Correct.
25 MR. TWEETEN: Right.
Page 54
53
1 MR. JOHNSON: And this is Perry again.
2 His question then is: We would approve these
3 ARMs, but maintain the amendment that's found on
4 Page 73 that says, "or a full or part-time
5 employee of a pretrial services agency as referred
6 to in 46-9-108(1)(f); is that right, Dan?
7 MR. CEDERBERG: That's right, Perry.
8 That's what I wanted to be sure that was included.
9 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. So
10 you withdrew the amendment to the other one, the
11 list; but you'd like to maintain this one, and
12 you'd like us to have a written response from
13 Chris included in the ARMs that we approve?
14 MR. CEDERBERG: Yes.
15 MR. TWEETEN: So we would have separate
16 comments for the two amendments, one of which
17 would reject the -- that's a harsh word -- would
18 decline to adopt the first proposed amendment,
19 which is to -- let me see here. Hang on just a
20 second.
21 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: The second proposed
22 amendment is --
23 MR. TWEETEN: Okay. The first one that
24 I have is to 23.13.206, which says, "POST will
25 issue basic certificates in the following
Page 55
54
1 disciplines." The proposal was to add pretrial
2 services officer to that list of disciplines, and
3 we agree then that that's not necessary, correct?
4 MR. CEDERBERG: Yes. That was
5 withdrawn.
6 MR. TWEETEN: And then the second one is
7 on the following page in regard to 23.13.205, and
8 that's where you would propose to add in the
9 fourth line the words, "or a full-time or
10 part-time employee of a pretrial services agency
11 as referred to in 46-9-108(1)(f); is that correct?
12 MR. CEDERBERG: Yes, and my
13 understanding is that Perry agrees that that's
14 acceptable, and my further request is that we be
15 clear that that is included in the motion to be
16 part of the ARM changes.
17 MR. TWEETEN: So POST would accept that
18 suggested amendment, and then decline to adopt the
19 prior one.
20 MR. CEDERBERG: Correct.
21 MR. TWEETEN: One point with respect to
22 that that you ought to consider. You notice the
23 way Subsection (1) of 205 is structured. It says,
24 "To be eligible for the award of a certificate,
25 each officer must be a full-time or part-time
Page 56
55
1 public safety officer employed by,"
2 da-da-da-da-da. And then it says, "or a full-time
3 or part-time employee of a pretrial services
4 agency."
5 And I can see that technically, as we
6 discussed, the employees of Missoula Correctional
7 Services are not a full or part-time employee of a
8 county or a city, they're employees of MCS. But
9 the way this is structured, someone might read it
10 to suggest that because of the "or," a full or
11 part-time employee of a pretrial services agency
12 is not a public safety officer.
13 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. Can we
14 correct that by saying after (1)(f), as defined by
15 44-4-401? Because 401 captures that any person
16 that has that training requirement --
17 MR. TWEETEN: Let me look at that for
18 just a second. Would it be adequate to say that,
19 to amend this section of the ARMs to say in
20 Subsection (1), "to be eligible for the award of a
21 certificate, each officer must be a full or
22 part-time public safety officer as defined in
23 44-4-401 at the time the application for
24 certification is received by the Council"?
25 I think that captures it without going
Page 57
56
1 into detail about who the public safety officer is
2 employed by.
3 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. So then we
4 would just actually amend that ARM by shortening
5 it up, and taking all of the describers out of the
6 agency or the officers then, and it would just
7 maintain that definition of 44-4-401.
8 MR. TWEETEN: Right. You would strike
9 everything between the word "employed" in the
10 third line, and the reference 46-9-108(1)(f) in
11 the fifth line. All that would be stricken. And
12 then you would insert in its place language so it
13 would read, "Public safety officer as defined in
14 44-4-401 --" whatever subsection that is. (1)(h)
15 I think it is, isn't it, or (1)(i).
16 So that would be the amendment. I think
17 that would be general enough to catch everybody
18 that is eligible for your certification without
19 unnecessarily repeating and interpreting the
20 language of 44-4-401.
21 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. I would
22 agree with that. Go ahead.
23 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Chief Oster had a
24 question.
25 MR. OSTER: I just had a question,
Page 58
57
1 because the longer we go around this, the more
2 confused I'm getting. These proposed amendments
3 already went out, right? And we accepted comments
4 on them, right? So --
5 MR. TWEETEN: That's correct.
6 MR. OSTER: How can we go back now and
7 start striking language and adding language
8 without putting it back through that process?
9 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, Ryan. This
10 is Chris. The answer is that we can do that
11 because that's the way MAPA says it is supposed to
12 be done. I mean you put the rules out for
13 comment. Anybody who has an issue with anything
14 that's in 23.13.205, for example, is on notice
15 that you're considering amendments to that rule.
16 If they want to take a position with
17 respect to this, they certainly can. And anybody
18 could have come to the rulemaking hearing, and
19 listened to Jon Metropolis's comment, and then
20 understood what the proposed amendments that MCS
21 was bringing forward would be, and then commented
22 on those before the close of the period for
23 receiving written comments.
24 So everybody has had their opportunity
25 to participate as contemplated --
Page 59
58
1 MR. SMITH: This is Lewis. They have
2 the opportunity to also participate in our
3 consideration of those.
4 MR. TWEETEN: Right. They could have
5 come to today's meeting, and participated as well.
6 So Lewis is right. I think that adds another
7 layer of public participation onto what MAPA
8 provides.
9 So my sense would be that there is no
10 problem with going ahead with it at this point.
11 MAPA invites the agency to make changes in the
12 rules as a result of public comment, and that's
13 really what we're doing here.
14 MR. DIAL: Mr. Chairman.
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Bill.
16 MR. DIAL: If I can ask Mr. Tweeten.
17 Could you help Ryan with his motion then? If
18 that's okay with Ryan.
19 MS. BOLGER: This is Katrina. I just
20 wanted to clarify. Chris, are you talking about
21 saying that under 23.13.203 subsection (1), to be
22 eligible for the award of a certificate, each
23 officer must be a full or part-time public safety
24 officer as defined by 44-4-401 Subsection (2)?
25 MR. TWEETEN: I don't have that statute
Page 60
59
1 in front of me, Katrina. I thought the definition
2 of public safety officer was 44-4-401 subsection
3 (1) Subsection (i).
4 MS. BOLGER: No. Subsection (2) is the
5 full definition of all public safety officers.
6 Subsection (2)(i) is any other person required by
7 law to meet the qualification or training
8 standards. It is a portion of the definition.
9 MR. TWEETEN: Okay. Well, then in that
10 case, I would leave the subsection references out.
11 It should just say, "Public safety officer as
12 defined in 44-4-401."
13 MS. BOLGER: Okay. Thanks.
14 MR. TWEETEN: Because then you'd capture
15 all of the provisions in the statute.
16 MR. DIAL: Okay, Chris. This is Bill
17 again. Getting back to my request. Would you
18 help Ryan with his motion so we can move on?
19 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, I think one
20 wording of an appropriate motion would be to --
21 let me think here for a minute on my feet even
22 though I'm not standing up.
23 Mr. Chairman, I move that the rules be
24 adopted as proposed except for the modification
25 previously discussed of Rule 23.13.205 sub (1),
Page 61
60
1 and that's the first part.
2 The second part would be that 23.13.205
3 sub (1) be amended to provide, and then we would
4 state -- or actually would just say, "would be
5 amended to read," and then, quote, "To be eligible
6 for the award of a certificate, each officer must
7 be a full or part-time public safety officer as
8 defined in Montana Code Annotated 44-4-401 at the
9 time the application for certification is received
10 by the Council."
11 And then the third part would be that
12 the Council authorize the staff to prepare, and
13 the Chairman to sign, any documents necessary to
14 complete the process of adopting and publishing
15 the rules as amended.
16 MR. DIAL: Is that your motion, Ryan?
17 MR. OSTER: That's going to get us where
18 we need to go?
19 MR. TWEETEN: I think so.
20 MR. DIAL: Second.
21 MR. OSTER: I would move.
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: So moved by Chief
23 Ryan Oster, second by Chief Bill Dial. We'll move
24 to an immediate vote. All those in favor, please
25 signify by saying aye.
Page 62
61
1 (Response)
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Opposed same sign.
3 (No response)
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Motion carries. I
5 think we will take ten minutes.
6 (Recess taken)
7 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I think we'll go
8 ahead and reconvene. Do we have anyone else who
9 has joined us on the telephone?
10 (No response)
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Truman, I just need
12 make sure you're still there.
13 MR. TOLSON: Still here. Still here,
14 Tony.
15 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Talks about records
16 management.
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: That's going to come
18 under the budget cut section.
19 I would like to welcome Frank Garner to
20 our meeting also today. Frank has got some
21 important business to take care of in the next
22 couple of days, I think in eastern Montana.
23 Hopefully he and Chief Dial can get that handled.
24 MR. JOHNSON: I think there's another
25 fellow that joined us.
Page 63
62
1 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Oh, the other
2 Sheriff Harbaugh joined us after we started?
3 MR. JOHNSON: Right.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Welcome Fallon
5 County Sheriff Trent Harbaugh as well.
6 So the next item on our agenda is the
7 memorandum for misdemeanor probation and pretrial
8 services officers. Is that where we're up to?
9 MR. JOHNSON: Yes. This is Perry. Page
10 80, 89, and 90. During our last POST Council
11 meeting, we talked about putting this together and
12 passing it out to our stakeholders. That's
13 something that did happen. In fact, that was part
14 of the discussion for the past hour, some of this.
15 I think we captured exactly what we talked about
16 during that last meeting. So that's in there just
17 as an informational item for you Council members.
18 I thought that that might be on the discussion --
19 (inaudible) --
20 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Okay. Any other
21 questions or comments in regards to misdemeanor
22 probation and pretrial?
23 (No response)
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: We'll move to new
25 business.
Page 64
63
1 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. It
2 looks to me like we're at a break. It is on the
3 agenda.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Moving right along.
5 Are you prepared to address that?
6 MR. JOHNSON: Certainly. This is Perry.
7 The next item under new business is I wanted to
8 just take a minute to recognize the service that
9 has been provided by Chris Tweeten to the Council
10 for the past five years, or maybe even longer. I
11 don't know. I think -- I wanted to make sure that
12 we recognized that Chris made an announcement that
13 he's going to close his practice at the end of the
14 year, that he intends to retire.
15 And I just wanted to take a minute to
16 express my appreciation to him. Believe it or
17 not, I'm not always the easiest guy in the world
18 to deal with. And I wanted to say thanks, Chris,
19 for being patient with me, and for providing your
20 services to this Council. I really appreciate
21 your insights, and all of the assistance that
22 you've given me over the last four years. So
23 thank you.
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you, Chris,
25 from the entire Council as well, and I think that
Page 65
64
1 requires a round of applause as well for Chris.
2 MR. TWEETEN: Mr. Chairman, this is
3 Chris. I want to just say that serving the
4 Council has been a very interesting and fun
5 assignment for me, and it is not often you get an
6 opportunity to associate with the folks on the
7 Council, and certainly in particular Perry, and
8 Katrina, and Mary Ann, and the other staff people
9 who have come and gone over the five years that
10 I've been here.
11 When I came to this job, the Council was
12 having considerable difficulties with the prior
13 Executive Director's conduct and so forth, and I
14 would like to think that I helped in some small
15 way in getting the Council back on the footing
16 that it needed to be on, and having the
17 opportunity then to interact with Perry and
18 Katrina, and work on -- (inaudible) -- questions
19 that come up. It has been something that I'll
20 appreciate as I go forward.
21 So I want to thank you all for
22 tolerating my long windedness, and just make my
23 pledge that regardless of how the Council decides
24 to go forward in terms of providing the legal
25 services that you need, I'll do whatever I can to
Page 66
65
1 make that transition as smooth as possible, and
2 work with -- if you decide to replace me -- work
3 with whoever takes my place, and make sure that
4 they can hit the ground running, and provide any
5 services that the Council will need from day one.
6 So thanks a lot.
7 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you, Chris,
8 and we appreciate that.
9 The next item for discussion was
10 probation and parole basic evaluation.
11 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. You'll
12 find those evaluations on Pages 91 through 102.
13 That's one of those situations that sometimes you
14 probably don't know what your staff does all of
15 the time, and part of our responsibilities and
16 duties are to present to every basic Academy
17 class.
18 So this is probation and parole. We
19 gave you the good as well as the bad evaluations,
20 because I guess it is on Page 91 to 93, somebody
21 wrote on there, "Wants to talk about
22 professionalism, but was unprofessional class
23 while training." And Mary Ann came in and said,
24 "I think that you might have used profanity during
25 your presentation," and to be real honest with
Page 67
66
1 you, I think I probably did.
2 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: God damn it, why did
3 you do that?
4 MR. JOHNSON: And so I guess that's just
5 when you're talking to these new officers -- at
6 least that's the way that I approach this -- "Boy,
7 this is the real world," and they probably need to
8 understand, at least from an old dog's
9 perspective, that there is going to be some real
10 language once in awhile. So I hardly ever hold
11 back, but a lot more than I used to.
12 So there you have it. If there is any
13 questions or discussion about that, I stand ready
14 to answer them.
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any questions or
16 comments?
17 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Perry, when I went
18 through basic, which was just a little while ago,
19 that we filled out evaluations, and then they
20 suspended those probably a year or two afterwards
21 because the content was -- from the perspective of
22 just like you said -- of not having any exposure
23 generally whatsoever to a profession that they're
24 going to go into. If you're going to give an
25 evaluation on someone's speech, whether they use
Page 68
67
1 "Um's" and "ah's," and "so's", that would be
2 applicable; but have the depth and breadth, to
3 able to offer an opinion about the experiences and
4 the knowledge wasn't of value, so they quit.
5 So applaud you for even having these,
6 because generally someone doesn't have the idea,
7 or experience, or the lifetime, or even life
8 experiences to be able to tell you -- (inaudible)
9 -- you have got to wait until they have a 44
10 pointed in their face, and see if they say, "Oh,
11 darn." That's why they suspended them, but I
12 wouldn't sweat that at all. That's my comment,
13 Mr. Chairman.
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Any
15 other comments?
16 (No response)
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Hearing none, we'll
18 move to discussion of the equivalency syllabus.
19 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. This
20 is just an updated syllabus, and this is on the
21 agenda for your -- I believe that you need to make
22 a motion to approve this.
23 We've approved syllabus in the past.
24 This has changed slightly. So I think that any
25 change, I've asked the basic Academy instructors,
Page 69
68
1 any of those cadres, anytime they change it, to
2 provide that change to the Council so that we can
3 put it on the agenda for approval. So that's why
4 you're seeing both of these syllabus.
5 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: If everyone has had
6 an opportunity to review that, or when you have, I
7 would entertain a motion for approval.
8 MR. THOMAS: This is Jim. I'll move.
9 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Second.
10 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I have a motion and
11 a second. Any further discussion? Discussion?
12 (No response)
13 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Hearing none, we'll
14 move to an immediate vote. All those in favor,
15 please signify by saying aye.
16 (Response)
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Opposed, same sign.
18 (No response)
19 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Motion carries.
20 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Mr. Chairman, as an
21 aside to that, my Deputy County Attorney was over,
22 and called on to go over and help teach a class at
23 MLEA, and when he came back, he said one of the
24 things that was mentioned to him was it would be
25 nice to have more County Attorneys that would come
Page 70
69
1 over and help out with the teaching and classes.
2 So we've presented -- we're working on
3 presenting that to the Montana County Attorney's
4 Association, and I have informed that to more
5 County Attorneys to volunteer some time to come
6 over and help with the classes, and see how it
7 goes.
8 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. So was he
9 working with David Ortley then with that legal
10 portion?
11 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I think so, yeah.
12 MR. JOHNSON: Just so the Council is
13 aware, Peter Bovingdon left some time ago, and
14 they were able to hire a retired District Court
15 Judge from up in Kalispell, David Ortley. And he
16 actually spends quite a bit of time with us. He
17 brings lesson plans over, and sits down, and
18 discusses where some of this is going to go.
19 And he's introduced some extracurricular
20 after hours classes for some of those Basic
21 Academy students in different areas, and I think
22 it has really been a healthy transition, not that
23 there was anything broken before, but when you get
24 those new faces, you get some new ideas in there.
25 So that's pretty neat that your staff would come
Page 71
70
1 over and bite on that apple. That's a good thing.
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: The next item is law
3 enforcement basic syllabus. That's Pages 104 and
4 105.
5 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. This
6 is the same song, different verse. This is in
7 there, because if there were any kind of changes
8 at all, we've asked that group to provide them to
9 us. And we haven't changed the basic hours, but
10 they may have tweaked one area over another, add
11 something and detracted from something else. So
12 this is in front of you again for a motion, if you
13 wish to move it forward.
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I will entertain a
15 motion to approve.
16 MR. DIAL: This is Bill. I would move
17 to approve the syllabus.
18 MR. THOMAS: This is Jim. I'll second.
19 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I have a motion and
20 second. Any further discussion? Discussion?
21 (No response)
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Hearing none, we'll
23 move to a vote. All those in favor, please
24 signify by saying aye.
25 (Response)
Page 72
71
1 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Opposed, same sign.
2 (No response)
3 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Motion carries.
4 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. I
5 just have to point out to Kimberly. We hear your
6 votes, so just so that you're aware of that. It
7 sometimes gets kind of lost in the shuffle there,
8 but we're listening.
9 MS. BURDICK: Okay. Thank you.
10 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Jesse, you've got to
11 raise your hand just a little higher so we can see
12 it, though.
13 MR. SLAUGHTER: Sorry. Aye.
14 MR. SMITH: When you fall asleep, don't
15 breathe so hard either.
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: The next item on the
17 agenda is the Director's report. And first up is
18 POST Law and Justice Interim Committee
19 presentation.
20 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry. We were in
21 front of the Law and Justice Interim Committee
22 just a couple of weeks ago, and we were the first
23 on the agenda. They got their business meeting
24 started at about 8:30. They gave us 15 minutes
25 from 9:00 to 9:15 on their agenda, but they were
Page 73
72
1 done with their introductions about 8:40 or maybe
2 8:45, and we were able to talk to them just about
3 what POST is, and kind of where our legislative
4 package ended up last time. And many on the
5 committee were familiar with that, because they
6 served on that Judiciary Committee as well.
7 But we ended up in front of them for
8 about 35 minutes, and they finally said, "We've
9 got another presentation after you. You're going
10 to have to sit down." But a lot of questions, a
11 lot of questions about what this Council does in
12 regards to the public safety in the state of
13 Montana.
14 And I think that they were probably as
15 interested and concerned as anybody in the room
16 about where POST has gone, because four years ago
17 I reminded them or I explained to them that we had
18 30 open cases, this Council did, and about 28 of
19 them came from community members. They had
20 reached out to the Council and said "Hey, the
21 allegation against this officer is this."
22 Today we've got 65 open cases, maybe 66
23 depending on what came in the mail yesterday, or
24 into my email, or Katrina's email, but that's 65
25 open cases, and 63 of them come from agencies. I
Page 74
73
1 explained that to the Law and Justice Interim
2 Committee, and one of the questions was, "Well,
3 how many of them do you actually act on, that it's
4 necessary for the Council to take an action on the
5 certificate?"
6 And I got to thinking about that, and
7 the bottom line is we have reached out to the
8 agencies, I think to the point where they really
9 understand what the Council does or believes in
10 regards to a standard. I think that for the last
11 four years, with the assistance of the Case Status
12 Committee and those officers, or those members
13 that meet every month now, we've kind of sent a
14 strong message out there.
15 And so when I got to thinking about it,
16 there is very few that we don't take an action on.
17 It might be probation on a certificate, it might
18 be a suspension, it might be additional training;
19 but seldom do we take a look at something and say,
20 "There is no outreach necessary," that it is just
21 done, and I think that's because the stakeholders
22 have endorsed and adopted what this Council has
23 tried to do over the past four years.
24 And I guess I would say to you also that
25 part of our discussion is the next thing on the
Page 75
74
1 agenda, is the budget. We pointed out to them --
2 They invited us to come and talk about our
3 legislative issues, and to introduce key members
4 of our staff. And I took Mary Ann and Katrina,
5 because I said, "I want you folks to look at
6 probably the smallest agency in the State of
7 Montana, and they're all in the room right here."
8 And I think we've got one of the biggest
9 footprints in the State of Montana, because we're
10 not limited by any agency. We've got oversight
11 over every agency in Montana. It covers every
12 inch of Montana, from Fallon County to Ravalli
13 County. And that is a big responsibility, and
14 especially when you consider that this is a
15 volunteer council, the tasks that we're trying to
16 do.
17 So I wanted to put that on there and let
18 you know that I think we were well received. I
19 think that we pointed out to them that we're going
20 to be back this time with a different legislative
21 package. We'll be tweaking 7-32-303 again, that's
22 what we really tried to do last time. We didn't
23 prevail. We were vetoed by the Governor.
24 I'll have to just take an opportunity to
25 tell you that Frank Garner just pulled the plow as
Page 76
75
1 hard as he could, and he was anchored to old Perry
2 Johnson, and that probably wasn't quite the plow
3 he wanted to pull, but he pulled it anyhow. So
4 he's always available. I've never seen Frank have
5 a bad day. And I just really admire what he has
6 done for the Council, and I wanted to recognize
7 that during that presentation. So thanks, Frank.
8 MR. GARNEr: Thanks. I appreciate that.
9 But I mentioned this yesterday. If there is one
10 thing I do really well, it's take credit for other
11 people's work, and that's what I've done there.
12 You've been a great advocate for this group.
13 You've done a lot of heavy lifting, and it makes
14 my job easier when I have people like that to work
15 with. So thanks for all the good work you've
16 done, Perry.
17 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Two comments, Perry.
18 I appreciate all of the work that you did in the
19 Legislature. I guess three comments. Be careful
20 how you pound your chest and how good of a job you
21 do, because you might be absorbed in the DOC.
22 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Never happen.
23 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: And third, when is the
24 next Law and Justice --
25 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. I
Page 77
76
1 don't know when the next one is. Our point of
2 contact up there is one of their staff attorneys,
3 Rachel Weiss, and she's really good about giving
4 us three or four weeks heads up about when we
5 should be prepared to present to them again. They
6 might not be back until spring.
7 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Spring or maybe now
8 under further comments that I'll bring up now
9 because I'm old and I'm liable to forget.
10 Until Frank brought it up about people
11 being eligible from out of state law enforcement
12 academies, I thought that we still could do it.
13 It shows how smart I am, being the chairman of the
14 ARM committee. But I would like you to take that,
15 if it's the board's pleasure, to take that and
16 start looking at that the next meeting of that
17 committee. Is that all right with you, the rest
18 of the board? I think it is ridiculous.
19 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: The consensus is we
20 at least want to take a look at it.
21 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: If a person is
22 certified from an out of state academy, that has
23 as good or higher standards as ours, why wouldn't
24 we consider them? It's just totally ridiculous.
25 MR. THOMAS: This is Jim. I'm like you.
Page 78
77
1 I thought we were doing that also. And I missed
2 the Great Falls meeting, and I don't know if that
3 was where it was done, but I thought we were,
4 because I had made some comments last year, I
5 think, about the --
6 Alexandria is one of the colleges where
7 we had gotten several people from, and I thought
8 we were not requiring the Academy. So I got lost
9 in translation somewhere.
10 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry, and I just
11 want to make sure that I remind you guys that
12 that's a statutory change, so it won't be an ARM
13 change, it will be a statutory change, and I think
14 that's why when we bring it back on the agenda,
15 that's where those packages that can come out of
16 that Law and Justice Interim Committee with a
17 motion, and I think that gives us some horsepower.
18 So I heard what you said, and I'll work
19 with John and Frank, and make sure that we try to
20 capture what may be a remedy through the statutory
21 change before we go back with that package.
22 MR. DiFRONZO: This is Frank. I want to
23 thank you. I appreciate your input into this.
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thanks, Frank. Talk
25 about the budget.
Page 79
78
1 MR. DiFRONZO: The bad Frank.
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: We'll call you
3 eastern Frank.
4 (Inaudible conversation)
5 MR. SMITH: He's going to be the newest
6 member of MACOP.
7 MR. JOHNSON: That brings us to Pages
8 106, 107, 108, 109, and 110. We start with 106.
9 That shows you where your budget ended up at the
10 end of the fiscal year.
11 And I will remind you that during our
12 Council meeting the end of May up in Kalispell, we
13 talked about a completely different dynamic. We
14 were sitting on some money that had yet to be
15 allocated. We allocated everything out of a
16 $440,000 budget down to $200,180. So I think that
17 we encumbered the funds that -- We provided the
18 amount of service that we were funded for. I
19 think that's a big deal when you're considering
20 the footprint that we've got in Montana.
21 POST accruals. The accruals are the
22 moneys that we used from that budget last year to
23 bring it into this fiscal year, so that we were
24 able to do some things.
25 And so one of those things was we had
Page 80
79
1 that temp worker that had been in our office
2 that's been helping us migrate data into the data
3 base, helping us with filing that has probably
4 been unfiled for the last 15 years. We've had
5 that same temp employee for a considerable amount
6 of time, and we were able to move that money
7 forward, so that we were able to maintain her
8 employment for the first 12 weeks of this year.
9 We also used moneys from last year to
10 provide transcription of some of our committee
11 meetings from back in May. Our POST Council
12 meeting and your meeting minutes today are a
13 transcription of that meeting that were done by
14 Laurie Crutcher. So we had encumbered that, and
15 we were able to pay for that out of last year's
16 budget.
17 The same thing with the ARMs that we
18 just talked about today. We knew that that was
19 coming to us. We anticipated that there was going
20 to be 30 pages at $60 a page, so we encumbered
21 $1,800.
22 The legal work with Chris Tweeten, he
23 gave us a heads-up that, "This is what it's going
24 to take for me to process this," so we encumbered
25 that money. Again, transcription of meetings.
Page 81
80
1 That would have been a different meeting. The
2 other transcription of proceedings were probably
3 those committee meetings. And I'm looking at Mary
4 Ann for affirmation, and she's telling me that's
5 right. The transcription of the meeting was the
6 POST Council meeting.
7 And next item is going to be something
8 that I'll talk about next, and that's officer
9 involved shootings. It is on here because I
10 encumbered some money from that last budget.
11 I'll go right to data migration, Crown
12 Point Technology, it's that data base that we
13 talked about last time where I was given the
14 opportunity by the Council to research, and reach
15 out, and identify a different data base, so that
16 we could transition into a data base that would be
17 more efficient and apply to the issues that we've
18 been dealing with historically where agencies want
19 to be able to check their own transcripts.
20 So that data migration, we identified a
21 vendor. We already paid that vendor for that data
22 base, or we started to, because there will be an
23 annual maintenance fee of that of $23,000. But
24 the migration from our old data base into the new
25 one was over and above our contract with them, so
Page 82
81
1 we encumbered it because we knew that we wouldn't
2 be moving that data until we got our data cleaned
3 up, and they were ready to move it. So we're
4 reading to pay for that when we ultimately get it
5 done.
6 Mary Ann, correct me if I'm wrong, but I
7 think we started some of that data migration
8 already.
9 MS. KEUNE: Yes. He did migrate -- this
10 is Mary Ann. He did some test migrations -- oh,
11 goodness -- our data base, and all that
12 information was so antiquated. It was horrible.
13 And so he -- Steve is his name from Crown Point.
14 And we got on meetings with him, and he had great
15 questions. He was able to clean up the data, so
16 we can migrate it. And we're almost there to the
17 point of being able to migrate. We're so pleased
18 because he got right on it, and we're going to
19 have a new data base before very long, and we are
20 excited, we think. We think it's going to be
21 good.
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Are you still there,
23 Truman?
24 MR. TOLSON: Still here, Tony. Sounds
25 good to me.
Page 83
82
1 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I want to make sure
2 you heard that before Perry starts talking about
3 budget cuts.
4 MR. TOLSON: Well, we use Crown Point,
5 so I think it is a good system.
6 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you.
7 MR. JOHNSON: That takes to Page 108.
8 This is an invoice that we received from Lewis &
9 Clark County, and it's an invoice that I asked
10 them to provide to us for this meeting. This
11 relates to the training that for the last three
12 years has been conducted. It is a program that
13 Leo put together that brings the officers that are
14 involved in shooting events into a room to talk
15 with a trainer, that comes out of Orange County,
16 California.
17 We encouraged Leo to expand that, and he
18 did with little encouragement, to a day of
19 administration training as well, so they know how
20 to support and integrate those officers back into
21 their office after these critical incidents.
22 We didn't have this invoice in time to
23 put on the agenda for last year, so we accrued
24 that money. It's available if the Counsel would
25 approve paying that invoice back to Lewis & Clark
Page 84
83
1 County. The training has already been conducted.
2 It was conducted in August, and I think, Leo, you
3 brought it to billings this year, if I am not
4 wrong.
5 MR. DUTTON: Yes.
6 MR. JOHNSON: And I think it was well
7 attended, well received again this year. So
8 rather than ask permission back then, I ask for
9 forgiveness now, and I would hope that we can
10 approve that expenditure for that training.
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I would entertain a
12 motion.
13 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I'll move.
14 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Second.
15 MR. SMITH: Second. Lewis.
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I have a motion and
17 a second to approve the payment to Lewis & Clark
18 County. You may have to abstain on the vote
19 however, Sheriff Dutton. Any further discussion?
20 (No response)
21 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: We'll move forward
22 to a vote. All those in favor, please signify by
23 saying aye.
24 (Response)
25 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Opposed, same sign.
Page 85
84
1 (No response)
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Motion carries.
3 Thank you.
4 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. Leo,
5 I didn't know if you wanted to add anything to
6 that.
7 MR. DUTTON: Yes, I would. Mr.
8 Chairman, Perry. I do want to thank you for the
9 opportunity to talk about that training, and we
10 wouldn't have had that first day about
11 administrator training to bring that in -- and
12 Frank, much like you, I love taking credit for
13 other people's work -- that you were the one that
14 suggested that, "Chief, we ought to be training
15 our administrators on how to do it," or Chiefs,
16 and Sheriffs, or Sergeants and Captains, how to
17 respond to this, as well as the individuals that
18 have sent a bullet down range.
19 We hadn't done anything like that
20 before. And as you go around and hear the
21 speakers from different municipalities, different
22 Sheriffs Offices, that had mass shootings, such as
23 the Chief from Newtown, Connecticut with the
24 Sandyhook presentation. It wasn't a debrief about
25 the shooting itself, it was a debrief about what
Page 86
85
1 happened, and what happened to the officers after
2 seeing little kids, and mass numbers of death.
3 Oftentimes we are really good about the
4 CIT program, the Crisis Intervention Training
5 dealing with citizens who are having mental health
6 issues, but for a long time, we have ignored the
7 ability or the lack of ability of what the
8 cumulative effect is about the job, about seeing
9 death, mayhem, that some people go a lifetime and
10 never see, or see once and are scarred for life.
11 We see something that's horrible, we're expected
12 to take a squeegie and clean the emotions off, and
13 deal with the next person like we've never seen
14 it.
15 Well, we are having -- we're one of the
16 professions that have the larger amount of
17 suicides, we're having people that quit and go on
18 because they see something like that. Some of the
19 older generation says, "Well, grow up," the ones
20 that's been to the wars saying, "That's just
21 life."
22 What if we could do better? This
23 training offers that about what if we could do
24 better, having the opportunity to talk about some
25 of the things that you can anticipate, some of the
Page 87
86
1 followup care. Oftentimes when an officer is
2 involved in a shooting, we prayed about it for
3 three months, and then it disappears.
4 So the one who came with this originally
5 was Chaplain Chris Thompson, got the idea, got to
6 talking about Perry about it, offered the other
7 day. And we've been doing it for three years, and
8 it has been an awesome response. At first it was
9 small, as you would expect. Several people came
10 -- not to me -- but other people to the trainer
11 and said, "I was quitting my office." None of
12 yours here. "My office forgot about me, and I
13 started to drink, and I started to have illicit
14 affairs. I couldn't cope with it. And I don't
15 know that I'll be able to repair that, but I see
16 some light at the end of the tunnel that's not a
17 train anymore." That was confirmation. That was
18 one person, but later there were three or four.
19 So your money did that. All I have to
20 say is that $2,500, you've done that before. Your
21 money saved somebody's career.
22 MR. JOHNSON: That brings us to pages --
23 this is Perry again -- brings us to Pages 111,
24 112, 113, 114 and 115. This is just to give you
25 all a heads up of where we're going with this. I
Page 88
87
1 asked Mary Ann to do Page 112 for this today.
2 Mary Ann, if you want to talk about it, you can,
3 but this is kind of a chronology of what we did
4 after that May meeting in regards to searching out
5 data bases. We believe we found a pretty good
6 data base.
7 We just got an endorsement from Truman,
8 who has been a good partner to us, reminding us
9 frequently of our shortfalls, and never letting us
10 lose sight of that.
11 So I think that we did come up with a
12 pretty one. We looked at some data bases that we
13 would have loved to have bought. They would
14 probably cost us in the neighborhood of anywhere
15 from $80,000, $90,000 or $100,000 a year. They
16 would have been outstanding to have. We just
17 don't have the budget to do that. In fact, we're
18 going to talk about that just -- maybe I outran my
19 headlights. I want to go back to Page 110 because
20 I'm not done talking to you about the budget.
21 I think that everybody is aware that
22 there is some legislative hearings ongoing in the
23 last couple of days where the Governor has
24 requested everybody to project what a 10 percent
25 reduction would be to your organization. Our
Page 89

1 whole budget is General Fund, so we don't have any
2 part of it that comes from special fees or
3 anything else.
4 Our budget is $417,000. We're going to
5 -- We were tasked with eliminating $41,100 of
6 that, so $1,700 right off the top. So if there is
7 a 10 percent reduction, that $41,000 is going to
8 have to come out of an operating line. We've got
9 a couple operating lines. One is legal fees.
10 That's got $50,000 in it.
11 But we offered to them, the consequence
12 they asked for was, "What will happen?," and the
13 consequence is real to this Council. Our
14 investigations and complaints will be delayed, or
15 may be delayed, or eliminated completely,
16 depending on what we begin to look at in regards
17 to the structure of what we deem as something that
18 we're going to take a look at -- approval of
19 training, and those kind of things, just those
20 administrative things that we do; the issuing of
21 certificates, that may be delayed as well.
22 But in addition to that, I want you to
23 be cognizant of what happens next year. If there
24 is a 10 percent decrease next year, $42,000,
25 because we appreciated a little bit. But this
Page 90
89
1 year also, before they -- when they handed the
2 budget back to us, when they said, "This is your
3 operating budget," they loaded our personnel
4 lines, but then they said, "Off the top of that,
5 there is a 6 percent reduction. You're going to
6 have to plan for -- your personnel line is going
7 to be 6 percent reduced."
8 And when we talked to our financial
9 analysts over at the Department of Justice -- we
10 don't have our own. We use theirs -- they were
11 kind of cavalier about it. "Well, that shouldn't
12 be a big deal. You can do it with vacancy
13 savings." Well, at any given time the Department
14 of Justice, with 800 or 1,000 employees, they've
15 got 35 to 40 or 45 openings. That's just the way
16 it is.
17 When Frank and John talk about
18 recruiting, everybody is in that recruiting
19 problem. They have vacancy savings. I've got a
20 staff of three, me, and Mary Ann, and Katrina. We
21 don't have any vacancy savings. We don't have any
22 -- Our staff is static, and I hope that it stays
23 static. I hope that we're not in a position where
24 we're going to leave something open for three, or
25 four, or five, or six months in order to
Page 91
90
1 accommodate a budget shortfall. But that 6
2 percent reduction, that's another $15,000.
3 In addition to that, we encumbered, by
4 buying that Crown Point data base, we encumbered
5 $23,000 additional dollars. That's the
6 maintenance fee for that. It is not $80,000, and
7 it's not $100,000. Some of those other data
8 bases, that was the annual cost. This one is
9 $23,000.
10 So when you look at our budget, and
11 that's the previous page, out of a $417,000
12 budget, if these shortfalls are realized, and if
13 we're tasked with reducing our budget, we're going
14 to go from 417, and we're going take $81,000 right
15 off the top of that.
16 And so if you would ask me, "How are you
17 going to do that?," I'm going to tell you I'm
18 going to do it through outstanding leadership.
19 I'm going to cross my fingers, and I'm going to
20 pray that we're not going to get a lot of
21 contested cases, but the fact of the matter is we
22 are going to get contested cases.
23 We haven't been in front of this body
24 with a contested case since October of 2013. So
25 for four years, we've been successful with summary
Page 92
91
1 judgment, or surrenders, or stipulated sanctions.
2 But right now we've got two right on the bubble,
3 right now, where we're asking for summary
4 judgment, but we may not get it. And that's where
5 we spend our money. That's where --
6 McLeod four years ago. We tried to put
7 a pencil to that, and look at what our actual
8 expenses were for expert witnesses, and for
9 travel, and for venues, and for transcription, and
10 for Hearing Examiners, and transcriptionists, and
11 we're probably at eighty grand for one case. We
12 know we were in for eighty. We might have been in
13 for a hundred. And that was at a time when it was
14 a real volatile time at POST, where there were a
15 lot of balls in the air, and we were trying to
16 make some deals, or we did make some deals.
17 And so I just want everybody to be on
18 the same page that I am. I'm not saying the sky
19 is falling. Man, my glass is always half full. I
20 don't look at it any other way. We've got an
21 opportunity, I guess, to tighten our belts.
22 MR. SMITH: What you have to do, Perry,
23 I think, we start -- If this negatively impacts
24 law enforcement, and the job you're doing,
25 document the hell out of it, so the next
Page 93
92
1 legislative session we say, "You know, here's what
2 happened because of the reductions, and this is
3 what's further going to happen if we have more
4 reductions."
5 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. And
6 I'm glad that we get to have this opportunity to
7 talk about this. I'm glad that we had the
8 opportunity, at least I got a chance to talk to
9 you about what Law and Justice Interim Committee
10 looked like, because they're really interested in
11 what you do, what this Council does. And I think
12 that's reflective of our nation right now, where
13 the public, or how the public views what we do.
14 And I think we're -- This is that half
15 glass guy talking to you. I think we're blessed
16 to get to live in Montana, where people -- I tell
17 these Basic Academy guys, "Man, when you go home,
18 smile at people, because in Montana, your
19 neighbors want to love you. They want you to be
20 their hero, and they still want you to be like
21 that. And you can't do that by never getting out
22 of the car, and all they see is that top part of a
23 guy driving by. You've got to engage your
24 communities."
25 And our administrators in Montana, our
Page 94
93
1 Sheriffs, our Chiefs, are out there every day
2 doing the job that needs to be done, and I think
3 that we still have our communities in our pocket.
4 I think, man, regardless of the number of
5 complaints that we've got, I think that we're
6 really lucky to have the people with their hands
7 on the handles, driving the buses that we're in.
8 That's what I think. And I think that that
9 Legislature, they hear that, too, and they share
10 that.
11 MR. OSTER: This is Ryan. I would just
12 -- and I know we're talking about pointing out the
13 obvious, but they need to understand that they're
14 part of the reason why we still have the support
15 of our communities, because we are taking care of
16 business. If we stop dealing with the problems as
17 they come up, and we're going to create problems
18 in our communities and a lack of trust. So I
19 don't know how you make them understand that, but
20 that's the reality.
21 If we stop doing our mission here at
22 POST, we're going to have problems at home with
23 our relations with the folks in our communities.
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Jim.
25 MR. THOMAS: You took the words out of
Page 95
94
1 my mouth. I think the two things, the oversight
2 that we do here in Montana that gets those on
3 board. You look in the other parts of the
4 country, and DOJ goes in, and it doesn't exist.
5 That and hiring people that they probably should
6 have never hired in the first place. But like
7 Perry said, they're on board. The people in
8 Montana are on board with law enforcement, but we
9 could lose that, that could dwindle if we don't
10 continue the oversight that we are currently
11 doing. That's my opinion. I think that needs to
12 be stressed.
13 MR. JOHNSON: This is Perry again. I
14 really I think that with that Case Status
15 Committee and the outreach that the Council has
16 done -- and maybe Frank might not agree, or John,
17 or Trent, but I think having them in the room with
18 us is a big deal. I think that that consistent
19 steady application of the same standard from
20 Alzada to Troy, that's a big deal. And I think
21 that people have seen that, and I hear it all the
22 time. You know, we didn't know -- (inaudible) --
23 (Interference)
24 MR. JOHNSON: That's a big deal to the
25 Case Status Committee.
Page 96
95
1 Hey, Truman, turn your phone off.
2 MR. TOLSON: That's not coming from me.
3 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Somebody got an alarm.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Somebody put us on
5 hold. Leo, did you have a comment?
6 MR. DUTTON: POST's contract really is
7 with the public, and the contract is maintain
8 public trust, and we have the ability to --
9 (inaudible) -- importance of budget.
10 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: If you have your
11 phone on mute, if you take it off, and maybe you
12 can -- (inaudible) -- music.
13 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: It could be worse. It
14 could be rap.
15 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I'm back.
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: There you go. Thank
17 you. Do you want to move to --
18 MR. JOHNSON: Yes. Well, let's see.
19 Any question about the data bases? We put those
20 in there, so you can kind of see where we're
21 going. There's an email on Page 111, several
22 hundred people, Chiefs, and Sheriffs, and agency
23 administrators in Montana, to let them know that
24 this change is coming, that there's going to be a
25 different way to access transcripts for their
Page 97
96
1 officers. They're going to be in charge of that.
2 They'll control it. So it will look completely
3 different to the officers in Montana, but we're
4 kind of trying to break them into just a little
5 bit at a time before we pull the trigger and move
6 forward with it.
7 MR. DiFRONZO: This is Frank. The
8 information hasn't been sent out yet?
9 MR. JOHNSON: It has.
10 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: No.
11 MR. DiFRONZO: I mean the way the access
12 code --
13 MR. JOHNSON: Oh, no. I'm sorry, Frank.
14 I misunderstood. This one went out. The other
15 information we haven't transitioned to that data
16 yet, so we're not quite ready. But we're getting
17 pretty close.
18 MR. DiFRONZO: Thank you.
19 MR. JOHNSON: IADLEST is on Page 116 and
20 117, that's the International Association of
21 Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and
22 Training. There's a conference in November. I
23 attached the agenda to this. And just in regards
24 to the budget conversation, I put this in here.
25 I want you to know that IADLEST has
Page 98
97
1 actually obtained a federal grant to allow one
2 person from the State of Montana, the Director or
3 his designee, to attend this conference down in
4 Phoenix. So sometime in the next week or two,
5 we'll get with their travel people, and put
6 together a flight, and I'll go down there. And
7 this is kind of a hardship in November because
8 there is so much going on in Montana.
9 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Rut usually starts
10 about the -- (inaudible) --
11 MR. JOHNSON: It does. So there you
12 have it. That's an update. I put in here a
13 discussion about the modified FTE. We asked for a
14 modified FTE after the Legislature met. We really
15 wanted to pick up that young woman that has been
16 in our office for quite awhile now. She's a
17 tremendous employee. And I wish John Strandell
18 was on the phone, because when we have our Case
19 Status Committee meetings, there is a lot of
20 interaction between my staff and those members,
21 Jim. And so they get to see Carly.
22 But we've gone through several temps in
23 the last four years. This one is just -- I always
24 felt like when I was an administrator, my job
25 really wasn't today, it's what is this going to
Page 99
98
1 look like in five years, or ten years, or where
2 are we going. And I really thought that if we had
3 an opportunity to absorb Carly into our operation,
4 there is your future of the POST action plan.
5 So --
6 MR. MATTHEWS: Lewis Matthews.
7 MR. JOHNSON: -- with help, appeal to
8 the Governor through that modified FTE process, we
9 were approved for it. When I looked for it in our
10 budget line to see how they have applied that
11 position, and then I reached out to our budget
12 people at DOJ, they said, "Well, they haven't
13 given it a position number yet, but it is okay.
14 You can go ahead. And we'll just take it out of
15 your operating lines, and then when they give it a
16 position number, then we'll do it that way." And
17 I said, "I don't want to do that. We'll just keep
18 her as a temp until you make that position line."
19 That position, if we actually did it,
20 annually would cost us $56,000 with her salary and
21 her benefit package. And I sat down with Carly
22 and said, "This isn't going to happen. We're not
23 able to do that. Even though we got approval, we
24 never got the position number. We don't have the
25 ability in our budget to do that."
Page 100
99
1 And I think yesterday she interviewed
2 with an attorney's office in Helena, and whoever
3 gets her is going to be well served. That's a
4 young woman that comes to work, puts her head
5 down, and goes to work. So she was really fun,
6 the energy in the office was good, and it was a
7 good situation. And if she doesn't get the job,
8 we'll continue to use her as a temp as we can
9 here, but that's just how that --
10 If there is no questions, I'll move
11 right into certificates awarded. So you've got
12 about 13 pages of them, 267 this time. You see
13 the numbers are starting to come down. We've been
14 up to 400, and that's because that basic
15 certificate, that ARM change that we made three
16 years ago, I think we're finally starting to get
17 that cleaned up. What I mean by that is you used
18 to have to apply for your basic certificate.
19 We've changed the ARM. Back then we said, "As
20 soon as you're eligible, we'll issue it."
21 And as we've gone through our data base,
22 those 22,000 entries in our data base, and we've
23 discovered those people that didn't apply for
24 those basic certificates, we're awarding them now.
25 And so sometimes we awarded dozens of them at a
Page 101
100
1 meeting like this. And you can see that all of
2 the certificates, all the way from basic to
3 command and administrative, we're down to 267. So
4 I think we're making progress.
5 That brings us to -- Is there any
6 questions about certificates?
7 (No response)
8 MR. JOHNSON: If not then, you see
9 equivalency granted are those fellows on your list
10 there. There was eleven of them. And I just want
11 to make sure that we go back and we talk about
12 that dynamic in regards to a Minnesota officer.
13 We do recognize Minnesota officers, Indiana
14 officers, New York, Florida, California, but the
15 caveat is that their experience or their basic
16 academy experience was equivalent to or exceeds
17 ours, but they must have been employed.
18 So that's the thing that we'll work with
19 our stakeholders and bring back to the Council
20 next time, so that we can renew that, and move
21 that forward.
22 So you have eleven, and when you think
23 about it, if we have eleven every time --
24 sometimes we have ten, and sometimes we have
25 fifteen at those equivalency classes -- that's a
Page 102
101
1 basic academy class a year, because we meet three
2 times a year. There's 33, there's 40, there is
3 whatever. So just in regards to instead of
4 another twelve week basic for those 30 or 40 or 50
5 people that get equivalency, we're actually taking
6 care of that training requirement with that 33
7 hour equivalency class.
8 So that's a big deal. I think that
9 recognizing that, and absorbing them and that
10 expertise from those other states into our officer
11 base, that's really positive in Montana. There is
12 a lot of good officers that come from out of
13 state.
14 Extensions granted. This is kind of --
15 and this is a short list this time. We've seen
16 fifteen, twenty people on that list before. I
17 think John has had people on the list. I think --
18 I don't know if Trent has. Frank probably has.
19 And that extension is because the Academy gets
20 jammed up, they get full, and they're not able to
21 take all the people that need to go within one
22 year of employment, so we give them a 180 day
23 extension, and then they get into the next Academy
24 class, or the one after that.
25 And the only -- in regards to EQ
Page 103
102
1 classes, I should make sure that you recognize --
2 the only EQ classes, those equivalency, are for
3 detention and peace officers. We don't have it
4 for dispatch, we don't have it for P&P. There is
5 no curriculum for those disciplines.
6 That brings us to cases open and closed,
7 Pages 132 and 133. I hate to read to adults
8 because even reading to my kids, I put them to
9 sleep, so -- (inaudible) -- about that. I take
10 you right into --
11 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I notice you've got
12 six still open from fifteen. Are they in court,
13 or where are they at? (Inaudible)
14 MS. BOLGER: Perry, this is Katrina.
15 Those are -- the majority of those are on
16 probation.
17 MR. JOHNSON: I was going to say, Lewis
18 -- this is Perry again -- that man, there is so
19 many of them, and there has been so many of them
20 over the last four years, and I am certainly glad
21 that Katrina spoke up.
22 Future meetings. Put a calendar on
23 there, and I just made some suggestions. I guess
24 the first thing I should ask is turn back to Tony,
25 and ask if three meetings is enough for you
Page 104
103
1 fellows every year.
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I think with the
3 budget being as it is, we probably need to
4 continue that, unless there is something more to
5 discuss in regards to -- Jim.
6 MR. THOMAS: This is Jim. Perry, does
7 having these -- I mean I like the travel myself --
8 but does this impact our budget significantly when
9 we go to Kalispell, and Great Falls, and Miles
10 City?
11 MR. JOHNSON: Yeah, it is a hit. In
12 fact, I think that part of the discussion for
13 future meetings needs to be the venue, because it
14 is a hit. You end up -- for me, you end up paying
15 for my travel, and I've got a State vehicle, but
16 you're going to put me up in a motel, you're going
17 to do those things. So I think what we really
18 need to do is consider what the cost benefit of it
19 is.
20 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Is it worth it?
21 MR. JOHNSON: If it were a perfect
22 world, man, I think it is a tremendous opportunity
23 for us. And we've only got three people in the
24 room today, but guess what? Frank, I know had an
25 issue, and maybe he would have driven to Helena
Page 105
104
1 today, because he said next time if we're in
2 Helena, he's going to be there.
3 MR. DiFRONZO: Not if you on --
4 (inaudible) -- I'd be in Hawaii.
5 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: That date is kind of
6 solid now.
7 MR. DiFRONZO: I figured that.
8 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Maybe we could bring
9 the meeting to you, Frank.
10 MR. JOHNSON: There is going to be a
11 venue. So I guess my recommendation, at least at
12 this point, is let's put some dates on the
13 calendar. But we haven't been in Helena for a
14 year now, and I would suggest that that February
15 meeting, if that's the day that we're going to
16 land on, or those months, or whatever dates, the
17 next meeting I would suggest we hold in Helena.
18 And then at that point we'll have a
19 little better idea. We'll be more than halfway
20 through our fiscal year. We'll see how our
21 contested cases have evolved, whether we're going
22 to go to hearing, or whether we have gone to
23 hearing, because we'll know by the end of the
24 year, and then we'll know more about those other
25 cases that -- (inaudible) -- So I think at least
Page 106
105
1 that's what I would suggest.
2 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Tentatively at least
3 those dates, all in Helena, Wednesday February
4 7th, Wednesday May 30th, and Wednesday October 3rd
5 of 2018.
6 MR. DUTTON: What time February 7th and
7 the others?
8 MR. JOHNSON: They're on your agenda,
9 Leo. May 30th and October 3rd.
10 MR. DUTTON: I wondered how you had them
11 memorized like that.
12 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: So those October,
13 February meetings, we'd move our Case Status
14 Committee meeting?
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: We'd probably want
16 to do them the day before or something.
17 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Right. Okay.
18 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Because those are
19 the first Wednesdays.
20 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Yes.
21 MR. JOHNSON: Are you good?
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Okay. Office
23 updates.
24 MR. JOHNSON: Office updates. Page 135,
25 136, and 137. We did evaluations last time on
Page 107
106
1 these staff members. Mary Ann is not in the room,
2 but I told you, I just feel like I'm just the
3 luckiest guy in the world. And there is some
4 things in there that just show what the
5 stakeholders that these staff members are reaching
6 out to are doing. And like on Page 135, "We've
7 always appreciated POST's quick and thorough
8 assistance, so thanks again." That's from the US
9 Attorney to Katrina.
10 And you're seeing -- I sent this out to
11 you guys before. Glen Stinar got something that
12 talked about, "Man, Mary Ann Keune is just doing a
13 good job." And Glen sent it over to me and said,
14 "It looks like it's for you," and it was. It was
15 for Mary Ann, and this was a guy that said, "Boy,
16 what a good deal."
17 So five years ago when we were
18 transitioning POST down at the old management
19 system, one of the deals was, "Boy, we can't even
20 get a phone call, or an email, or whatever out of
21 that office." And now I think you're starting to
22 see some atta-boys for your staff members, and
23 those girls really deserve it. They come in
24 early, and they stay late, and they work real
25 hard. So I wanted you to at least take a look at
Page 108
107
1 a couple of things there.
2 General office updates. I think that
3 we've covered just about everything that we needed
4 to today. I think that you've kind of seen the
5 scope of that work that we've been dealing with
6 for the past few months. I've attended, after our
7 meeting, I attended the MACOP and the --
8 (inaudible) -- conference. I attended the MSPOA
9 conference as well. Both of them were in June,
10 both of them the same week by the way.
11 And then just last week I was in
12 Whitefish at the FBI National Academy conference
13 up there, and I got to interact with a bunch of
14 Idaho and Montana officers. I tried very hard to
15 engage Council member Bill Dial into a breakfast
16 appointment, but alas, he was unavailable, and
17 thankful for the opportunity to be unavailable, I
18 think. So I ate by myself, Bill.
19 MR. DIAL: Some of us have to work
20 patrol.
21 MR. JOHNSON: You know, I teased one of
22 them Sheriffs at one of those conferences about,
23 "Say, you never were a Detective were you?" And
24 that Sheriff never missed a beat. He looked back
25 at me, and he said, "No, I always worked." So I
Page 109
108
1 understand what you're saying.
2 That brings us to committee reports, and
3 I turn it back to you, Mr. Chairman.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: The first item up
5 was committee assignment discussion. Has there
6 been any requests for additions or deletions for
7 any of the members to or from committees that's
8 come in?
9 MR. JOHNSON: No. This is Perry, and I
10 would say that that's probably a hold over from
11 our last meeting, because we've reassigned some
12 committees then, and I think that we left that on
13 there, and we didn't need to. And I could
14 probably qualify this whole, these reports
15 discussion by saying since the last Council
16 meeting, the only committee meetings that we've
17 conducted have been our Case Status Committee
18 meetings, and we've done that on a monthly basis
19 this year, starting last year actually. That's a
20 very active committee.
21 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: The ARM Committee,
22 too, via phone.
23 MR. JOHNSON: That was before the last
24 Council meeting, wasn't it?
25 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: That was about a month
Page 110
109
1 ago.
2 (Inaudible conversation)
3 MR. JOHNSON: I'm sorry. Chairman Dial
4 wants to make a report.
5 MR. DIAL: I really don't.
6 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Let me ask for the
7 business plan or policy. Kimberly, if you have
8 any updates you'd like to share, we'll do that one
9 first.
10 MS. BURDICK: I don't have any updates.
11 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Now the
12 ARMs.
13 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I'm much like -- to
14 steal Frank Garner's thunder -- I take credit for
15 a lot of people's work, and I just sit back and
16 let Perry and his staff and our attorney do the
17 revisions to the ARMs, and I sit there and shake
18 my head yes, and it has been done very, very well.
19 That's all I have.
20 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Case
21 status. John Strandell is not -- you're not on
22 the phone yet, are you, John?
23 (No response)
24 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Jim, would you like
25 to make any comments?
Page 111
110
1 MR. THOMAS: We've already gone over the
2 things from the Case Status. I don't think there
3 is anything to add besides that report.
4 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Curriculum. Kevin
5 Olson. Kevin, are you on the phone yet?
6 (No response)
7 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Or at all? Thank
8 you. And then Coroner, Lewis.
9 MR. SMITH: Nothing new there --
10 (inaudible) -- people quit dying, so --
11 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Legally.
12 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: So starting at Page
13 138 were kind of the compilation of the
14 evaluation, director evaluations, and I had asked
15 Mary Ann this year to kind of make a random
16 selection of Chiefs and Sheriffs under
17 administrators, as well as the Council's members.
18 And hopefully you've had time to take a look at
19 the comments, and the appraisal of Director
20 Johnson's leadership as the Executive Director.
21 Does anyone have any comments in regards to the
22 evaluations?
23 MR. THOMAS: I'd like to just briefly --
24 this is Jim. I missed an opportunity here, Perry.
25 I used to be the primary SWAT instructor up in
Page 112
111
1 Helena. And Leo and Frank Garner probably recall.
2 We used to do a little thing I called "foliage
3 identification" where we kind of sauntered up
4 Mount Helena. And the last class, I had a student
5 from Yellowstone County who did an evaluation, and
6 he said that some of the things I said to them on
7 that little hike hurt his feelings.
8 And so eventually I'm going to remember
9 to put in one of my evaluations of you, I'm going
10 to find something where you said something that
11 hurt my feelings, because I'm a sensitive person,
12 as everyone knows.
13 But seriously, I can't add anything to
14 this. You've been great to work with, and I look
15 forward to the meetings we have, so --
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I guess my question
17 of the Council is: Does anyone disagree with the
18 fact that this is something that we should do
19 annually? My feeling is in order to have an
20 evaluation, get it done. If there are issues,
21 that we can address them, and continue to do an
22 annual. And it is all done electronically, so it
23 is not a cost factor, I guess.
24 MR. DIAL: This is Bill. I agree.
25 Everybody has to know the job they're doing, and
Page 113
112
1 whether it's good, bad, or indifferent, Perry and
2 I have worked very well together. As I sit and do
3 this evaluation every year, as I type, my nose
4 starts to grow, then I have to push it back in.
5 But in all seriousness, for people who
6 are on the phone and any other Council members who
7 didn't do this, I really encourage you to do it,
8 because like I said, we have to know, everybody
9 has to know if they're doing a good job, or if
10 they need improvements.
11 So Perry, thanks for your great work.
12 I'm always comfortable to know that you're at the
13 helm, and that I trust everything that you have
14 done for this Council, and I just encourage you to
15 keep it up.
16 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any other comments?
17 Frank?
18 MR. DiFRONZO: Where is the part about
19 too much cussing?
20 (Inaudible conversation)
21 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: On the first page.
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: We're saving that
23 for executive session.
24 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I do want to say,
25 though, that every time I've ever asked for
Page 114
113
1 anything from POST or Perry, he's been very
2 accommodating, and he tells me a lot. You will
3 hear some more from me. But I just want to thank
4 him and POST for taking our considerations.
5 And to be to be quite honest with you, I
6 think to go back to the issue of the cost of
7 moving this around the state, I think the way that
8 things are right now, that it's probably more
9 feasible for you to get one location, and I have
10 issue -- (inaudible) -- even though I have to go
11 500 miles to do it, it is worth it, just to be
12 able to get in to talk to.
13 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: It would be about 650
14 miles.
15 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you, Chief
16 DiFonzo. Any other comments? Folks on the phone,
17 any comments?
18 (No response)
19 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Do we have a need
20 today to move to executive session? Hearing
21 none --
22 MR. JOHNSON: You know, I should talk
23 about that just a little bit. The reason that
24 that's on there is because the employee that's
25 getting evaluated gets an opportunity to go into
Page 115
114
1 executive session. I think this my fourth
2 evaluation, and we never have. And I like not
3 going into session. If you guys have got
4 something to say, that's why we're doing this.
5 And if anybody has anything to say, you know, boy,
6 the lights are on, and the stuff is on top of the
7 table, and Frank, go ahead.
8 But I like doing business like this, and
9 if there is something that happens, then we should
10 talk about it, if you have -- (inaudible) -- drift
11 or whatever it is. And that's why I like to keep
12 it open. I think that's just good business.
13 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Chief.
14 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: I have one closing
15 comment, not about the evaluation. But the reason
16 Frank and I got in late last night is Frank was
17 invited to talk to the State Nurses Association
18 specifically about the bill that was defeated last
19 year about having assault on a health care worker
20 become a felony. And I went along, and being the
21 shy person I am, I got up and talked a little bit.
22 But just something -- It's really not
23 for POST. It is just something for you, you guys
24 as law enforcement leaders, and people from other
25 different areas of the state, take a look at that.
Page 116
115
1 I was shocked. I Googled it. There is
2 over 3.3 million nurses in the country. 12
3 percent are physically assaulted every year. 12
4 percent. That's about 335,000 people get
5 assaulted. Some people say, "Well, you know, it
6 is part of the game. It is part of the job."
7 It's not. And we told them that -- The assaults
8 are under reported, and we told them they've got
9 to do that. Frank is an expert in HIPAA laws, and
10 he asked how many people understand exactly what
11 HIPAA is, and I think two people in the room
12 raised their hand.
13 But anyway, the reason I'm bringing this
14 up is take a look at it when you get a chance, and
15 just remember. Those are the people that when
16 you're laying in there with a heart attack, or you
17 got shot, or you got stabbed, or you stepped on a
18 nail, who's the first person that comes in and
19 takes care of you? And for those people to have
20 to deal with getting punched in the face, kicked,
21 strangled, it is just, to me it is unconscionable
22 that we don't, as citizens -- And I think MACOP,
23 the next time around, we ought to take a look at
24 getting behind them, and helping support this.
25 We also told them that the law is not
Page 117
116
1 going to change when you're getting assaulted, but
2 at the same time, I think that's something we
3 ought to be conscious of. And so that's my two
4 cents, and I'll get off my soap box. Thank you.
5 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Leo.
6 MR. DUTTON: Back to Perry's evaluation.
7 Perry, we can go into executive session now. Take
8 the next 45 minutes to elucidate my opinion here.
9 One of the things that we didn't have
10 before you came was Director filed complaints.
11 And I remember. I don't remember somebody holding
12 a line saying, "I was there. I know what you did.
13 I'm filing a complaint." Having the confidence to
14 make it equitable for all, and that's why we
15 appreciate you.
16 It doesn't necessarily mean we agree
17 with you every time. It is that you're willing to
18 have that conversation. The opportunity for
19 input. The opportunity to say, "Listen to me.
20 Here's my opinion." You do. Don't argue. Until
21 we're done. Then you may argue. But that's
22 communications negotiation. And that's under the
23 communications reliability. You've always got
24 back to us with information.
25 But importantly is the absolute belief
Page 118
117
1 that you're here with passion and purpose. It is
2 not a job. It is passion about upholding that
3 public trust. It is a purpose in making sure that
4 we all understand it, and know that someone is
5 going to hold accountable so we don't lose that.
6 That's my input. I didn't need an
7 executive session to say that, and I'm happy that
8 that's what we're about. For awhile we struggled
9 with that -- not we -- this Council, four or five
10 years ago, long before you were there. But I
11 think we have got it, and we'll always encounter a
12 bump or two, but I think that if we keep under the
13 idea that it is a "we" instead of an "I," we'll do
14 well.
15 So if we have to approve the evaluation
16 or if it's done and over with, I just wanted to
17 get my two cents in, so I appreciate it.
18 MS. KEUNE: This is Mary Ann. May I
19 speak about the Director?
20 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Mary Ann.
21 MS. KEUNE: Since I work with him every
22 day, I normally can't speak, and I hope I don't
23 cry, because I try, but --
24 MR. JOHNSON: "I hate that bastard."
25 MS. KEUNE: Either way it is going here.
Page 119
118
1 MR. DUTTON: "He whips me on Tuesdays."
2 MS. KEUNE: Just I do work with Perry
3 every day, and what you see is what you get all
4 the time. He is so fair, and just -- I don't
5 know. He's just perfect for this job, and always
6 trying to do his best to represent you guys, and
7 very fair to work for, wonderful to work for.
8 And on the note of you all, we so
9 appreciate your support, your input, we value it,
10 and it makes our job easier that we know we have
11 good support. So thank you for what you do, too,
12 and thank you, Perry, for being the boss you are,
13 and I appreciate it.
14 UNKNOWN SPEAKER: Does he hurt your
15 feelings?
16 MS. KEUNE: Did he ever hurt my
17 feelings?
18 (Inaudible conversation)
19 MR. JOHNSON: You ought to hear some of
20 our conversations. You know, Mary Ann makes a
21 good point, and that's that support from the
22 Council. You know, I get to represent you. I get
23 to speak to the Legislature. Everybody. I get to
24 be the point of the spear kind of for this
25 Council.
Page 120
119
1 But I never feel like I ever go into any
2 of those meetings by myself, because I just feel
3 like you guys got my back. If something happens,
4 we're going to go through it together. And that's
5 a big deal. If you don't really have that, you
6 kind of feel like you're out there on your own.
7 I've never felt like that. I've felt like from
8 the time we started rebuilding this, and putting
9 it back together, you guys were right there.
10 And I think that's the only reason we're
11 right here today where we are. I think we're
12 positioned pretty good. We're going to take bumps
13 along the way, we're going to take a hit on the
14 budget, but that's how much service we're going
15 get then, too, through those discussions. So I
16 guess that's my opportunity to say thanks.
17 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Thank you. Any
18 other comments from people on the phone?
19 (No response)
20 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Anyone else?
21 (No response)
22 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: Any other business
23 for the good of the Council?
24 (No response)
25 CHAIRMAN HARBAUGH: I would entertain a
Page 121

It will comply with these rules and offer the director further guidance regarding the specific steps that the director and POST staff will take when responding to allegations.
(2) Any allegation made against a public safety officer that states potential grounds for sanction, suspension, or revocation of POST certification must be made initially to the employing authority of the officer in question by the individual making the allegation, unless the employing authority is making the allegation. All allegations must be made in writing unless the director initiates the allegation. Anonymous allegations will not be considered unless the director determines that public safety may be threatened if POST takes no action on an anonymous allegation.
(3) Except as provided in this section, POST will not proceed with an allegation unless the individual making the allegation or POST staff has notified the employing authority of the allegation. This requirement does not apply if the allegation has been made against the highest ranking officer in the agency, who would otherwise constitute the employing authority, and there is some reason to believe that the investigation or public safety would be put in danger by such a notification.
(4) After being notified of the allegation, or in making its own allegation of misconduct, the employing authority must give POST a notice of the employing authority's investigation, action, ruling, finding, or response to the allegation, preferably in writing, which must include a description of any remedial or disciplinary action pending or already taken against the officer regarding the allegation in question. If available, a copy of the initial allegation made to the employing authority and the employing authority's written response must be forwarded to the director.
(5) After the employing authority has been notified and given the opportunity to act, the director or POST staff may accept an allegation.
(a) Any allegation submitted to the council must be submitted to the director or POST staff and may not be submitted to the full council or any individual member of the council.
(b) The allegation must provide at least the following information: (i) the name, address, and telephone number of the individual making the allegation, which the director may keep
confidential if the individual or public safety would be harmed by disclosure; (ii) the name and place of employment of the officer;(iii) a complete description of the incident;(iv) the remedy sought, including a recommendation for a sanction, suspension, or revocation of the officer's POST
certification;(c) A person making an allegation must use the allegation form available from POST staff or submit an allegation in
substantially similar format.(d) An employing authority or the Montana Law Enforcement Academy may submit a written allegation on the agency's
letterhead with supporting documents that the agency deems appropriate.(6) The director may initiate an allegation, based on good cause and reliable information, and must follow the
procedure set forth in this rule as if initiated by any other individual, including but not limited to submitting the complaint to the employing authority.
(7) After an allegation has been received or has been initiated by the director, the director, in consultation with contested case counsel for POST, will correspond with the respondent in writing.
(a) All such correspondence must be copied to the employing authority, unless the exception noted in (3) applies.(b) The flow chart and accompanying policy provided in (1), will outline the number and nature of these letters.(c) The purpose of this correspondence is to allow the officer to respond to the allegation, allow the director and
contested case counsel to gather more information, and allow the parties to reach an informal resolution.(8) After an allegation is made by or filed with the director, the director, contested case counsel for POST, or other
POST staff or designees will investigate the complaint. (9) Following the review and investigation of an allegation, communication with the respondent, communication with
the employing authority, and consultation with counsel for POST, the director may take any appropriate action, including but not limited to the following:
(a) engage in informal negotiations and settlement discussions and enter into a stipulation or memorandum of understanding with the officer or the officer's counsel, or otherwise informally resolve the complaint.

(c) make one of the following findings:(i) No finding: The investigation cannot proceed for reasons that include but are not limited to: the complainant failed to
disclose promised information to further the investigation; or the complainant wishes to withdraw the complaint; or the complainant is no longer available for clarification. This finding may also be used when the information provided is not sufficient to determine the identity of the officer(s) or employee(s) involved.
(ii) Not sustained: The investigation failed to discover sufficient evidence to prove or disprove the allegations made or the investigation conclusively proved that the act or acts complained of did not occur.
(iii) Sustained: The investigation disclosed a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegation(s) made.(d) issue the appropriate denial, sanction, suspension, or revocation of a certificate; (e) if a denial, sanction, suspension, or revocation is imposed, the director must provide a notice of agency action in
writing to the officer, satisfying the notice required by 2-4-601, MCA;(f) the officer may request contested case proceedings pursuant to 44-4-403, MCA and MAPA, as outlined in ARM
23.13.704.(10) If a review of the conduct of an officer is pending before any court, council, tribunal, or agency, the director may,
as a matter of discretion, stay any proceedings for denial, sanction, suspension, or revocation pending before the council, no matter what stage or process they have reached, until the other investigation or proceeding is concluded. If the case has already been assigned to a hearing examiner, the hearing examiner must grant a stay based on an application by the director or counsel for POST.
(11) In all cases in which a written allegation is submitted which does not culminate in a MAPA contested case hearing, the director must file a written report in the officer's POST file setting forth the circumstances and resolution of the case.
