GREELEY, Colo. — The City of Greeley has kicked off preliminary operations in its Real-Time Information Center (RTIC), a state-of-the-art public safety initiative that supports effective and efficient police service to the Greeley community.
Media are invited to interview Chief of Police Adam Turk and RTIC staff, and to see some of the city’s current equipment, like drones, in action.
Interview Opportunities:
Technology installation and the purchase of new public safety equipment is still underway. In the meantime, trained RTIC staff are available to discuss early operations of the center and its future. Interview opportunities include:
– Chief of Police Adam Turk
– Police Commander Tanya Gutierrez
– Police Sergeant Greg Ryan
To attend and coordinate an interview, email [email protected].
When: Thursday, October 3, 1-2 p.m.
Where: Greeley Fire Station 6, 10603 West 20th Street
Why: Greeley’s population is expected to double by 2060. With growth comes an increased need for staffing and resources — public safety and 911 calls are on the rise annually, averaging a 5% increase each year. The Real Time Information Center provides data and technology to Greeley Police responders so they can plan and deploy appropriate resources when and where they are most needed, allowing them to respond more effectively to emergency situations, and, when necessary, quickly identify and locate missing individuals or criminal suspects.
