    Can't let a one-star rating stand by itself when my experience is so very different…read more We had a house fire two years ago and, while we were fighting the fire after having called 911, an officer showed up right away. A second officer arrived with the fire department and she put us in a warm patrol car (it was early December and bitterly cold outside) and stayed with us until the fire captain reported the house safe to re-enter. So to find out more about OPD, I signed up for the Citizens' Police Academy which is one of the department's community outreach programs. That was an amazing experience. The classes covered officer selection and accession, training and standards, deployment, and operations and equipment. The most important part, though was not just the details of "what" and "how" but also the "why" of the department's SOPs. I learned so much about procedures and their enforcement when I rode along on a night shift with the same officer who took care of us when we had the fire. The department is full of outreach programs that give insight into the department and to the officers who serve us . . . Coffee with a Cop, public meeting with the chief and his senior officers, Neighborhood Watch (the ones that I've attended so far), the police advisory commission, and a host of others. The most valuable is their presence on social media; the people who are tied in to that presence receive timely warnings and alerts, requests for assistance, and general policing information I honestly don't know how the department could be more open to interacting with the general public. I haven't been stopped for an infraction (knock on wood) but I have interacted with several officers in other contexts and they have been uniformly courteous, friendly, and professional with an obvious desire to help. Chief Menke won't remember me (might be a good thing!) even though I've had the opportunity to talk briefly with him one-on-one twice in the last year. I have come away from each of those conversations with the strong sense of his dedication, high standards for his officers, strict enforcement of those standards, and his ongoing concern for the safety of the residents of and visitors to Olathe. So, well done, Chief Menke; I highly recommend the officers of your department and the non-sworn staff as well. (And I have no clue as to why Yelp lists me as living in San Francisco when I live in Olathe?!?!?)

    They are weak and lazy. Condescending and uncooperative so they can sit on their phone in the…read morecruiser somewhere.

    I have lived many places in the USA (7 states & 18 cities) but I have NEVER, I mean EVER felt so…read moremuch disrespect & disgust with this group of law enforcement personnel. 1. They drive the nicest cars of any police force I have witnessed. 2. They ARE way OVERSTAFFED. I typically see at least 1 police car for every 10-15 drivers. It reminds me of my time living in the occupied territories of Palestine; where Israeli police literally beat, arrested & persecuted anyone who appeared 'suspicious'. 3. They have forgotten the mission to 'Protect & Serve'; replacing their mission with 'Rob & Search Out Money' at all costs. 4. The times that I have needed assistance or asked for help, they have been abrupt, rude, disrespectful & dismissive. However, when there is an accident or the opportunity to drive fast, play their big loud sirens, they will knock pedestrians off the sidewalk, endanger citizen's lives & waste hours doing nothing. Every accident that I have witnessed or driven by, there have been no less than 7 police cars. Really? Not a great use of hard earned taxpayer dollars. 5. Every officer that I have encountered is overweight, out of shape, arrogant, rude, disrespectful, pompous & uncommunicative. They have all been ignorant of laws (including citizen's civil rights, due process, Miranda rights, procedural guidelines, etc.) 6. The few times I have dealt with these so-called 'Selfless Public Servants', it has evoked fears of a growing police state. What a tragedy! I suppose they have either beaten their citizens into submission, surgically extracted their brains (and capacity to think) or run every thinking person out of town. Not a great long term strategy for success guys.
