Description

The City of Kelowna is seeking a consultant to conduct a comprehensive Police Services Model Review (the “Review”) of its current contracted police service delivery model, and to compare the model to a municipal police service model. The Review will outline and analyze the unique needs of the City of Kelowna in assessing both options exclusively and recommend the optimal model based on:
• Value for service
• Governance and decision-making structures
• Responsiveness to community needs and expectations
• Capacity to meet future service demands
The consultant will deliver a comprehensive report with findings and recommendations, addressing qualitative, quantitative, and financial aspects of each model.
