Catoosa County Sheriff Gary Sisk, who took office last week, said he has plans to get the community more involved in policing.

Sisk was second in command under retired sheriff Phil Summers for the past decade. He said his administration will take the rest of the month to wrap up 2012 issues, then get to work on the future.

“I already have lists for each division, and some of my ideas include things like citizen academy, promoting citizen volunteers, and starting a reserve officer program,” he said. “I would also like to start a more in-depth neighborhood watch program and build a database of contacts for each neighborhood watch area, so that we can share information with them such as crime trends.”

Sisk said another big focus area will be that of school system participation, mentoring, and rehabilitation.
