Packet Pg. 309  6.7.d.b Duties and Responsibilities: The mission of the reserve officer program is to provide effective law enforcement services to the citizens and visitors of the Okaloosa County Airports through increased manpower and support to the OCAP during both day to day operations, and in the event of a major emergency or disaster. Attachment: OCAP reserve white paper (1217 : Airport Police Accreditation and Reserve Officer Program) Reserve officers will only perform duties for which they have been specifically trained and certified. Reserve officers will be assigned duties with a certified officer at all times, unless they have completed all required training and are approved by the Chief of Police to work alone. Reserve officers will be required to perform 8 hours of duty per month officers may volunteer and be requested to work additional hours. Reserve officers cannot be ordered to perform additional duty except under two circumstances: (a) remedial training is required as a condition for continuance as a reserve officer, as approved by the Chief of Police or his designee; and (b) during any city, state, or federal emergency declared by competent, legal authority. Reserve officers will perform all duties required of regular officers and will be responsible for maintaining the standards of Okaloosa County and the Airports Police. All reserve officers will be expected to be familiar with, and comply with all provisions detailed in the Policy and Procedures Manual of Okaloosa County, Okaloosa County Airports and Airports Police and any attachments, supplements, or changes. Officers will also be required to abide by all applicable federal, state, county, and municipal laws, statutes, ordinances, and directives. Failure to maintain standards or comply with the guidelines stated above may be grounds for discipline, remedial training, and dismissal. Reserve officers will have full police powers (to include arrest) while on and off duty, and will carry department approved firearms. Pursuant to Florida Statute 943.13 Should court attendance be necessary Reserve Officers shall follow court attendance procedures in accordance with department policy.

Packet Pg. 310  6.7.d.b Legal Considerations: Although not full time employees, reserves are considered to be representing the County and the Airports Department. Therefore liability coverage is the responsibility of Okaloosa County in cases where a reserve officer acted in the lawful performance of his or her duties. Attachment: OCAP reserve white paper (1217 : Airport Police Accreditation and Reserve Officer Program) Recruitment: Recruitment of potential reserve police officers should be done in accordance with county and airports police recruiting efforts geared toward regular officers. The selection pool for reserve officers should mirror the one used for regular officers, therefore the same recruiting process and technique should be followed. This reserve collection of officers can be utilized as an opportunity for vetting new officers for open full time positions. This will not take the place of the Okaloosa County Hiring policy and is not intended to short cut the recruitment procedures. Uniforms and Equipment: Uniforms worn by reserve officers will be the same as those worn by regular officers. Upkeep and maintenance of uniforms is the responsibility of each officer, and the department incurs no expenses for dry cleaning. All uniform items will be turned in at the time of resignation or dismissal. Equipment will be the same as that issued to regular officers excluding firearms, and will be paid for by the department and issued to each reserve officer. Firearms will be paid for each officer and will remain their property. Reserve officers will be held accountable for the maintenance and serviceability of their equipment. Lost or damaged equipment is the responsibility of each officer, who will reimburse the department for such lost or damaged items. Issued equipment will also be turned in at the time of an officer's resignation or dismissal. A listing of equipment issued to each reserve officer. : M.
