Sixteen Acres Resident John Wojcik was the last citizen to address the
Community Complaint Review Board.  During his comments to the board and
afterwards in a private conversation Mr. Wojcik suggested the
implementation of CACS.  Clean A Cruiser Service.  Having an officer
park a cruiser at a residence while community members washed the
vehicle.  "This would be a pit stop for the officer," Wojcik said.  He
mentioned he did not want to take work from the union guys at Police
Headquarters but wanted a way for the community to show appreciation.

Wojcik also mentioned the board title should reflect
communication as
well as complaints.  In addition, he said, "There should be a board
established to listen to concerns about all city departments, not just
the police."
"Enhancing Community Review of the Springfield Police Department"
The above words are from a pamphlet distributed at the board meeting in City Hall.
