 Chief Charles Ramsey, Rebuilding the Metropolitan Police Department, September, 1998
A major problem was that the rest of the Police Department remained locked in a rigid bureaucratic structure that not only failed to embrace the new operating model; it actually got in the way of how basic police work gets done.
We are restructuring the entire Department to (l) place more resources in the community, (2) focus our resources on reducing crime and solving problems in the city's 83 PSAs, and (3) hold managers at every level of the organization accountable for the quality of policing services within their geographic commands.
In short, we are putting the Police Department in a much stronger position to take back the city’s neighborhoods — block by block, community by community — in partnership with our residents and other agencies.
