PUBLIC SAFETY MEETING
Thursday, November 2, 2023 6:00pm
City Hall East Conference Room #337
651 Prairie Pointe Drive, Yorkville, IL
In Attendance:
Alderman Seaver Tarulis
Alderman Chris Funkhouser
Alderman Craig Soling
Absent: Alderman Dan Transier
Other City Officials in Attendance:
Police Chief Jim Jensen
Others in Attendance: None
The meeting was called to order at 6:00pm by Vice-Chairman Seaver Tarulis.
Citizen Comments: None
Minutes for Correction/Approval: September 7, 2023
The minutes were approved as presented.
New Business:
1. PS 2023-17 Monthly Report Review for August 2023 – September 2023
For both months, Chief Jensen reported on the number of employees, community
policing, initiatives, community participation and training hours. Directed patrols,
accidents, criminal cases and total calls for service were also reviewed. In addition, he
said officers were in 5 schools at the school year start. A new crossing guard is stationed at the
high school and the department is saving $30,000 since it is now a school function. Alderman
Tarulis asked about the process when a driver ignores a crossing guard and Chief Jensen
explained. The Chief also shared information about a recent major arrest and crisis calls. He
said that a social worker works with the department 8 hours a week on domestic calls. He hopes
for a grant to increase those hours.
2. PS 2023-18 Adjudication Reports for September 2023 – October 2023
There were violations for cannabis, curfew, expired registrations and water usage. Alderman
Soling asked about an alleged noise complaint at a nearby car place which the Chief briefly
addressed.
Page 2 of 3
3. PS 2023-19 Pre-Order of Police Vehicles for the FY25 Budget
Chief Jensen commented that there is money in the current budget for one car and two
cars are budgeted in FY25. He also said the officers like the feature of a single cage in
the back seat. A van was originally desired, however, a retired ambulance may be
purchased instead to save money and it would be shared with the Parks Department.
Normally the PD goes with the state bid and after discussions with Sutton Ford, there are
no vehicles available at this time and a 5-6% increase is possible. Morrow Brothers
(located in Greenfield) currently has vehicles, the price will stay the same and is $4,400
less than the anticipated Sutton increased price. The Chief would like to purchase from
Morrow Brothers, ordering them now with delivery after May 1. Morrow does the
outfitting while Sutton does not.
Alderman Funkhouser asked if the same vehicle color package would be used and if
“ghosting” would be used. The cars will have the same colors and Chief Jensen noted
that the officers like the black and white. He said the ghosting is beneficial at night. In
relation to the “ghosting” markings, Alderman Funkhouser said the public perception is
that the PD is bad and not there to protect. Vice-Chair Tarulis commented that
Alderman Funkhouser's statement warrants a future discussion.
In summary, theChief would like to purchase squads from Morrow Brothers and it would
require a Council majority vote to be placed on a list to pre-order 3 vehicles. Possession
cannot be taken until May of 2024.
4. PS 2023-20 Taser Lease Agreement – Discussion
The current taser lease agreement expires May 14, 2024. The Department currently has
eight X2's. The X2's are no longer being supported and Chief wishes to move to an X10
model which is the newest version and officers will require updated training. He wishes
to lease 8 of the X10's which is $34,000 over a 5 year-period and he will apply for a
grant. The training is an added cost and he would like 2 officers to be trained. He said he
would keep the X2's as well which would give 18 total tasers with the new ones. Chief
Jensen said paramedics remove the taser probes which can be considered as evidence.
He said tasers are the most effective non-lethal method they have. This item moves
forward to City Council.
5. PS 2023-21 Meeting Schedule for 2024
All committee members concurred with the proposed 2024 meeting schedule. This
moves forward to City Council.
Old Business: None
Additional Business:
Chief Jensen wrote a grant last year for funding to purchase a training simulator for de-escalation
of mental health calls. The grant was written for the “Virtra” system. He went to a conference
that presented a real-life scenario on a computer screen, giving a 300 degree view and is state of
the art. Chief Jensen wrote the grant so that all Kendall County PD's would have access to this
training. He was informed last week that a grant of $241,000 was awarded. A 30' x 30' fixed
space is needed because the cost to move the equipment is $5,000. Several spaces are being
Page 3 of 3
considered. An IGA will be needed with all other agencies who use the equipment and the Chief
wants 24/7 access to use it. A press release will be issued and a media day will be held.
Alderman Funkhouser said this is one of the biggest grants ever received.
In another matter, committee members accompanied Chief Jensen to the second floor of city hall
for a tour of the open space near the PD administrative offices. The purpose was to discuss a
potential information center for major incidents within the county. He is considering converting
the space into a real-time information center, funded with a private donation along with a possible
grant he would write. He met with all Chiefs of Police recently and all were very receptive. He
discussed other advantages of such a system including intelligence-gathering and for use during
special events. Staffing ideas were briefly discussed. He would like to see the center opened by
February or March and he will provide an update in January
There was no further business and the meeting was adjourned at 7:39pm.

Marlys Young, Minute Taker

Summary Reporting System (SRS) of Part I & II Crimes to the National Incident Based Reporting
System (NIBRS). Crime reporting will now be reported in the NIBRS format; therefore, crime
reporting will now look different than in previous years.

Facebook Post (11/6/23): Today we would like to recognize 12-year-old Vincent for his great work
this morning. At approximately 6:34am Police and Fire were dispatched to a chicken coop that caught
on fire ( the source is believed to be a heat lamp). Vincent noticed the fire and alerted his grandfather
to the fire next door. His grandfather helped put the flames out as the fire reached a detached garage.
Thank you, Vincent, your actions helped preserve property and potential harm. All residents and
chickens are safe. Pictured with Vincent are Mayor John Purcell, Officer Lobdell and Officer Davis.
Facebook Post (11/11/23): We would like to take the time to thank all Veterans for their service
to this Country. At the YPD we are blessed to serve with the following Veterans.

Facebook Post (11/13/23): Good afternoon and Happy Monday everyone! Yorkville Police
Department is just checking in, hoping all had a great weekend, and a start of an amazing week!
Facebook Post (11/17/23): On Friday November 17th, 2023 Yorkville Police arrested Radu A.
Mogos for possession and distribution of child pornography. The release can be viewed at the
link below. Prior to receiving the investigative tip from the National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children Mogos was in training as a community service officer with the Yorkville Police
Department. Once our agency was alerted of the allegations Mogos was removed from service
and resigned his position from Yorkville P.D. Mogos was employed less than 6 weeks during which
he was under the constant supervision of a field training officer. Once the investigative process
confirmed the allegations, the case was turned over to the Kendall County State’s Attorney for
approval of charges. An arrest warrant was then issued for Mogos at which point he was taken
into custody by our agency and transported to the Kendall County Jail.
It is important to the Yorkville Police Department to be transparent in our duties and actions.
While Mr. Mogos was employed for a short time with the Yorkville Police Department, we had
no knowledge of his personal off-duty online activities until reported to us by the National Center
for Missing and Exploited Children. The men and women of the Yorkville Police Department hold
ourselves to a higher standard of performance and expectations and must hold ourselves
accountable when an individual’s actions are illegal and affect the integrity of our organization.
Yorkville Police Department cannot and will not condone inappropriate or unlawful action by its
employees.

Summary Reporting System (SRS) of Part I & II Crimes to the National Incident Based Reporting
System (NIBRS). Crime reporting will now be reported in the NIBRS format; therefore, crime
reporting will now look different than in previous years.
