š EXECUTIVE SUMMARY š
During January, the Traffic Bureau continued their goal of reducing crashes through selective enforcement projects.
The goal of the Traffic Bureau is not to punish drivers through the issuance of citations, but to make the streets of
Schaumburg a safer place to drive. Traffic officers expended 152 hours on selective enforcement projects. These
projects resulted in the issuance of 220 traffic citations. In addition to selective enforcement projects, traffic officers
perform individual patrols. The total number of citations given by the traffic officers was approximately 694
(including selective enforcement citations).
Officer Nebl and three DARE Role Models
from Schaumburg High School and Addams Junior High School.
Officer Eschel and the Blackwell School Dare students from Mrs. Davis’ class
DARE classes continued at Aldrin, Blackwell, Enders-Salk and Campanelli schools. Officer Nebl and three DARE
Role Models from Schaumburg High School and Addams Junior High School visited the sixth grade students at
Campanelli School.
Social services held a mediation meeting with two tenants and their landlord to resolve an ongoing dispute in
Pickwick Apartments. The meeting resulted in an understanding regarding acceptable conduct and resolving
complaints.

The beat coordinator received several complaints about a traffic back up during rush hours due to a possible timing
issue with the lights at other intersections. A CSR was initiated and the beat coordinator is working with the
Transportation Department. A count will be conducted at the intersection for a future resolution with IDOT.
Beat officers responded to a theft from motor vehicle at Chevy’s Restaurant and, with Detective Klebba, developed
suspect information. They distributed this information to area stores and arrested the subjects several days later for
unlawful use of credit cards.
During January, police department volunteers provided over 100 hours of valuable assistance. Volunteers such as
Michelle Lazarus assisted Patrol with compiling information. Harold Sterling and Loris Francioni assisted the Barn
and Meals on Wheels. Betty Hlad assisted Investigations with PR information and Gayle Nissen helped Records and
Administration with filing.
The Barn held safety presentations on gas and carbon monoxide safety for seniors. Topics included the types of
identification worn by the utility employees to prevent door-to-door scams, what to do if someone suspicious is
observed, and how to keep homes more fuel efficient. With the new state law requiring the installation of carbon
monoxide detectors, seniors learned where to install carbon monoxide detectors, when to replace detectors and what
to do if a solicitor requests to check their homes for carbon monoxide leaking.
Special Investigations Bureau (SIB) members conducted surveillance on Dartmouth after receiving complaints of
suspected drug trafficking at a residence. SIB investigators conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle leaving the house and
arrested an adult and sixteen year old male for Possession of Cannabis. Follow-up calls from the neighbors stated the
suspected drug traffic stopped following the arrests.
Following a tip from a confidential informant, SIB officers arrested a twenty year old subject at the Streets of
Woodfield and recovered 450 pills of Ecstasy (MDMA). The subject was charged with Possession of a Controlled
Substance With Intent to Deliver (Class Super X Felony) and his 1994 BMW 325 IS was seized.

to an electronic filing system.
The Analyst Section compiled the 2006 Year in Review crime statistics for inclusion in the December,
2006 monthly report and completed the conversion to the new traffic stop data sheets mandated by
recent law changes. The Crime Analyst assisted the Investigations Division with a case of
burglary/theft to motor vehicle case which led to the arrest of several suspects. The sex offender
mapping, beat statistics, patrol alerts and requests continued to be completed.
The Training Section completed the following training:

SIMPLE BATTERY
At a local bar, the victim was approached by a male offender who starting punching and kicking him for
no apparent reason. The victim suffered a head injury resulting in stitches. The offender fled the scene in
a vehicle occupied by two other people. An acquaintance of the victim recognized one of the vehicle’s
occupants. Detectives learned the name of another possible witness who provided the detectives the
offender’s name. A photo line up was shown to the victim and witnesses who identified the offender.
The offender subsequently surrendered himself and was charged with one count of misdemeanor Battery
and held on an outstanding warrant.
THEFT
A resident noticed several items - golf clubs, laptop computer, etc. - missing after his daughter had a
party at their home while he and his wife were out of town. Prior to receiving this report, detectives were
investigating a battery at the same residence. When the possible offenders in the battery case were
identified, detectives went to Play it Again Sports to ascertain if one of these offenders sold any items
recently. A set of golf clubs matching those taken from the victim’s home were sold by one of the
offenders. The suspect was interviewed and admitted to the theft and provided the name of a second
offender. The second suspect also admitted to stealing several items. Both offenders provided the
whereabouts of the other stolen items which were then recovered by detectives. Both offenders were
charged with Felony Theft.
Special Investigations Bureau
Members of the Special Investigations Bureau (SIB) and the Palatine Police Department executed a
search warrant in Palatine. A male subject was charged with Unlawful Possession with Intent to Deliver
a Controlled Substance and Unlawful Possession with Intent to Deliver a Controlled Substance within
1000 Feet of a Park after 1.5 grams of crack cocaine, 6 pills of Diazepam and 8 pills of Hydrocodone
were recovered.
SIB conducted surveillance on Dartmouth after residents complained of suspected drug trafficking from
a residence. SIB investigators followed a vehicle leaving the house. A traffic stop was conducted and a
21 year old male was arrested for Possession of Cannabis. A sixteen year old male subject was also
arrested for Possession of Cannabis after a search of the subjects revealed small amounts of cannabis on
each. Follow-up calls from the neighbors stated the suspected drug traffic stopped following the arrests.
Members of SIB arrested a 32 year old female subject at a local hotel for Prostitution and Unlawful
Possession of a Controlled Substance. The subject was arrested after she offered a sexual act to an
undercover SIB investigator and during the subsequent arrest 7 grams of Cannabis, 1 pill of Diazepam
and 2 Pills of Hydrocodone were recovered.

Traffic Bureau
During January, the Traffic Bureau continued their goal of reducing crashes through selective
enforcement projects. Traffic officers expended 152 hours on directed, citizen-initiated and selfinitiated selective enforcement projects, and school zone selective enforcement projects. These
projects resulted in the issuance of 220 traffic citations.
Along with selective enforcement projects, traffic officers are expected to perform individual patrols.
The total number of citations given by the traffic officers during January was approximately 694
(includes the above selective enforcement citations). The goal of the Traffic Bureau is not to punish
drivers through the issuance of citations, but to make the streets of Schaumburg a safer place for the
residents and visitors.
Patrol Bureau
Beat 1 – Sgt. Dave Wermes
The Beat 1 Monthly Meeting was held on January 2. Five Beat 1 Residents were in attendance. The
Beat 1 Team discussed the following.
• Social Services was contacted about the high volume of domestic disturbance calls for a
residence in the 2200 block of Brent Court.
• The possibility of setting up cameras in the Sheffield Towne area was reviewed again. If
approved, cameras would be set in the parking lot of the 1000 N. Walnut Lane parking lot.
• Schaumburg Terrace advised they have been experiencing an increase of people loitering in
front of residences drinking alcohol on Goodspeed Lane. Beat officers are to take a zerotolerance approach on all ordinance violations.
• The Special Investigations Bureau (SIB) conducted a search warrant at 2352 Goodspeed Lane
for a narcotics violation. One subject was arrested and the residence was secured.
An issue of abandoned autos showing up on Knollwood Drive at Goodspeed Lane was resolved when
officers gathered information that a unit owner on Goodspeed Lane was dumping cars on Knollwood
Drive so he would not have to tow them.
Three areas of Selective Enforcement:
• Overnight parking violations on Emerson Drive
• Loitering/ordinance violations at Schaumburg Villas and Terrace
• Speeding violations on Southbridge Drive

The Beat 2 Team met for the monthly meeting on January 9. All but one officer was in attendance.
Two members of Towne Place West Association and residents of Springinsguth attended the meeting.
Redeployment was discussed and residents were advised which officers will remain in Beat 2.
Towne Place West members reported no new concerns. Springinsguth residents praised officers’ efforts
and commented how often they see squad cars monitoring traffic. Thirty two citations were issued in
January in this ongoing selective enforcement effort. New Year’s Eve was discussed as resident
inquired about calls for service.
The beat project for a neighborhood issue of noisy vehicle mufflers at Towne Place East was handled by
Officer Persson on midnights. He warned a resident who owns one of these vehicles that citations may
be issued in the future. The beat coordinator spoke with the complainant who advised the neighborhood
has been quiet.
A complaint by the Towne Place West about snowmobiling was investigated by Officer Persson who
determined the offending vehicle was a skid steer used for snow removal.
Day shift Officers Modjeski and Quane intervened on a noise complaint between businesses in the
Schaumburg Plaza shopping center. A citation was issued but the situation escalated later in the day and
ultimately resulted in the arrest of one of the shop keepers. The beat team is now working with Building
and Code Enforcement and following up with the business license.
Beat officers continue their work on a Customer Service Request for a Special Watch on a vacant house
that is under review for teardown. This will remain open to prevent trespassing until the status of the
site is determined.
Beat 3 – Sgt. Dennis Cerqua
The monthly Beat 3 Meeting was held on January 18. In attendance were all members except for one
officer. Two members of the public were in attendance at this month’s meeting.
The beat team reviewed the following selective enforcement/special watches:

parking. No activity has been observed in this area. This special watch is closed. Operators of
ATV vehicles have not, to date, been located and there have been no new sightings of the ATVs
reported. The covert speed monitor found no significant pattern of speeding cars on Heron
Avenue.
• The Groton Court special watch for underage drinking, drug dealing and disorderly youths at the
bus stop on Syracuse is closed. Since making contact with the possible offender on Groton
Court, there have been no reported incidents. Officer Rizer was able to resolve a complaint of
disorderly youths at the neighborhood bus stop.
Two members of the Princeton/Syracuse neighborhood attended the meeting. They reported suspicious
activity at the house located on Princeton and Syracuse involving numerous cars stopping at the
residence for very short periods of time possibly involved in drug activity. A thirty day special

Pleasant Lane. No one was found in the home, but it appeared that someone had been inside before the
officers arrived.
Beat officers are running a selective enforcement for speeding on Sagamore due to complaints from
residents.
A customer service request (CSR) was investigated by a beat officer in regards to an abandoned auto.
The auto was at a residence in the 100 block of Sumac Lane. It was previously reported in December,
2006, but at that time did not fit the abandoned auto criteria. A report was made and forwarded to the
Abandoned Auto Unit for follow up.
Another CSR involved an RV trailer parked in the driveway of a home in the 300 block of Bramble
Lane. A beat officer investigated and found the trailer was in compliance and was properly parked at
the location.
Beat 5 – Sgt. Joe Schlau
The monthly meeting for Beat 5 was held on January 3. All Beat 5 officers, a resident from the Dunbar
Lakes Homeowners Association and the Association President of Lexington Village were in attendance.

complaints.
The situation involving a problem tenant on Regency Circle in Lexington Village was discussed at
length. Contact was made with the property owner and the tenant indicated they were moving by the
end of January. Police will monitor the location as well as maintain contact with the owner.
A mediation meeting was held between two tenants, the landlord, and Social Services in connection with
an ongoing dispute between some residents of the Pickwick Apartments. The meeting resulted in an
understanding regarding acceptable conduct and resolving complaints.

Beat 6 – Sgt. John Jameson
The Beat 6 Monthly Meeting was held on January 10. Beat members and several citizens were in
attendance. The team discussed the following:
Beat Goals for 2006 and suggestions for the 2007 Beat Goals.
Current items on the Beat 6 directed patrol assignment (DPAs).
A CSR from Community Development requesting a special watch for a residence in Del Lago due to a
closet fire, where the upstairs bedroom is uninhabitable until repairs have been completed.
A CSR was generated by Community Development/Code Enforcement inspectors for signs advertising a
dating service being placed at Woodfield and Martingale Roads. A special watch is in effect for the area
indefinitely. A witness provided offender information which is being followed up by Beat 6 Officers.
The Solicitation of Contributions on Highways, Ordinance #06-22, specifically, changes made in
November, 2006.
A CSR was generated for a suspicious, often allegedly speeding, delivery truck on Silverwood Court.
The beat team has been checking the area through a special watch and hasn’t observed the reported
activity. The CSR was closed, but officers will continue to monitor the area. Follow up was made with
the citizen who made the report and they were encouraged to contact the Beat 6 Coordinator if any
further activity is observed.
A special watch for the Lexington II property management office and clubhouse on Williamsburg Drive.
Though there have been no recently reported incidents, officers will continue to monitor the area.
Some residents of Park St. Claire were in attendance to express concerns about recent reports of
vandalism and thefts, mainly to outdoor Christmas decorations. The citizens also expressed concerns
over youths loitering after hours in Russ Parker Park. The citizens were encouraged to call the police
when the youths are in the park being unruly or are in the park after hours.
Beat 7 – Sgt. Mike Gerard
The Beat 7 Meeting was held on January 17. The following is a summary of topics discussed at the
meeting. All members of the beat team were present except for one officer.
Possible beat goals for 2007. Some suggestions were streamlining the arrest process during the holiday
season to reduce the officer’s down time when handling shoplifters, to ensure compliance with the new
smoking ordinance by working with the affected businesses, and updating key holder information
through security. These topics will be discussed in greater detail at the next beat meeting.
Woodfield Security is planning to install surveillance cameras in selected areas within the mall.
Currently there are cameras on the exterior at each entrance. This project will begin sometime this year.
Woodfield Security is establishing a notification system for each store within the mall. Once in place,
13
Progress Through Thoughtful Planning
they will have the ability to immediately disseminate information to each store. This could prove useful
in tracking retail theft crews and would be a useful tool in the event of an emergency.
Each beat officer was given an assignment to present their ideas on suitable evacuation routes, along
with routes emergency vehicles would likely take into the mall, should a large scale response be
necessary. This information will be presented at the next beat meeting and the beat team will
incorporate it into the Incident Response Plan for Woodfield Mall.
Beat 8 – Sgt. Mike Maggio
The first meeting of 2007 took place on January 21. All team members were in attendance and we
welcomed Bureau 1 Officer Urso back to the team. Officer Peluso, who is leaving the team, was
commended for his exceptional efforts over the past several years while on Bureau 1. There were no
members of the community present.
Officers report calls for service at Tree House Apartments have been steadily declining and the monthly
Crime Analysis Calls For Service reports have corroborated this. Officer Bultinck has had contact on
several occasions with Manager Kristen McAtee and reports that she has been closely following the
management model of her predecessor, Cyndie Peek.
The Beat Coordinator received a voice mail message from Hawthorn Estates’ Jim Colletti, regarding a
request for some information about certain calls for service at this property. Crime Free Multi Housing
Officer Nebl, agreed to contact Mr. Colletti with the information he was seeking. Detective Rago is still
working to develop leads/suspects regarding the thefts and criminal damage to property at Hawthorne
Estates. He has been able to eliminate two subjects who were previously thought to be suspects.
An armed robbery that occurred at the Mobil Station is still under investigation. ET Santoro did a nice
job to on retrieving images from the CCTV security video.
There were no CSRs assigned in January. Officer Russo and Officer Urso advised the Alumni Club and
Sal and Carvao have eliminated valet services on a regular basis. These being the case, no other
facilities are known to be operating an ongoing valet service in Beat 8.
The following Beat Goals and Objectives for 2007 were discussed. We all agreed, for the purpose of
enhanced public safety, to concentrate the majority of extra effort toward the Renaissance Convention
Center property.
1. A zero tolerance approach to the 25 M.P.H. posted speed limit on Thoreau Drive and to monitor
right turn on red at Thoreau Drive and Meacham Road. This is hoped to reduce crashes at that
intersection.
2. Concentrated enforcement of all the newly installed parking regulation signs on the convention.
Continue zero tolerance enforcement on all public passenger vehicle licensing ordinances.
3. Strict enforcement of parking restrictions along Palmer Drive in addition to the two properties
which have been posted for Trespass and No Parking. Both the warehouse in the 2200 block of
Palmer Drive and the building on the corner of Algonquin and Quentin Roads have experienced
problems with refrigeration semi-trucks staging on their property while waiting to dock at the
local production facility.

Beat 9 – Sgt. Jeff Theriault
The Beat 9 Team met for the monthly meeting on January 4. Five Beat 9 Members were in attendance.
The team discussed the following:
The impact of the new smoking ordinance was explained to the beat team. Several different scenarios
were discussed. With the amount of liquor establishments in Beat 9, it is imperative all team members
are well versed and prepared for any questions that may arise.
The coordinator has received several complaints about traffic backing up at the intersection of
Woodfield and Meacham Roads during heavy rush hour periods. A CSR was initiated and the beat
coordinator is working with the Transportation Department as it appears the timing of lights at other
intersections in the area may be a factor. A count will be conducted at the intersection for a future
resolution with IDOT.
Officers Antes and Casey responded to a theft from motor vehicle at Chevy’s Restaurant. Over several
days, with help from Detective Klebba, they developed intelligence on the suspects. They distributed
this information to area stores and were able to arrest the subjects several days later for unlawful use of
credit cards.
A beat team member will meet with a representative of IKEA to discuss an ongoing skateboard problem.
Proper signage needs to be erected to allow for proper enforcement of the loitering ordinance.
Beat 10 – Sgt. Pat Donovan
The Beat 10 Team met for the monthly meeting on January 11. There were no citizens present at the
meeting. Beat 10 Officers discussed their beat goals for 2006.
• Beat officers cracked down on abandoned autos in Beat 10. They documented 23 abandoned
autos in 2006 as opposed to 13 in 2005.
• Officers also increased the number of Rental Incident Cards issued. Beat 10 has a high number
of multi-family dwellings including Remington Place Apartments, Village in the Park, 21
Kristen and 12 Oaks condominiums. Officers completed 62 rental incident cards at these
locations as opposed to 51 in 2005. These cards allow us to identify the number of police
responses to any particular unit. The information is forwarded to management and may factor
into their decision to renew a resident’s lease.
• Beat Officers wrote 158 Service Observation Forms in 2006. These forms are used to warn
residents of potential crimes of opportunity. Along with the high number of multi family
dwellings are the large parking lots with the potential for burglaries to autos. The observation
forms were placed on automobiles with valuables in plain sight, warning owners of the potential
for theft.

800 Mhz Rebanding
Due to problems with interference in the radio system, Motorola was unable to start the inventory. The
interference issues were resolved and corrected in January. The inventory of existing equipment will
start in early February and is expected to require five months for completion and preparation of the
statement of work proposal and cost/time estimates. Once that is complete, the proposal will be
reviewed and submitted to Sprint/Nextel for final approval.
Dispatch Consolidation with Northwest Central Dispatch
All vendors are now working on the technical aspects of this transition. All other aspects of the project
are in process and work is progressing well. All connections and wiring is expected to be completed in
February. Teams have been established to address operational changes and meetings between those
teams and NWCD have been started. All appears to be on schedule for an April 24, 2007 cutover.
Records Management System Upgrade
Work on the implementation was started in January with IDNetworks on-site to install software,
perform project planning and start training. Staff has visited IDNetwork’s facility in Ohio to gain
familiarity with support staff and define the details of the project plan. Equipment has been ordered and
is expected to arrive in February. All appears to be on schedule for implementing the new records
system along with the NWCD transition.
