Imagine what you would do in this situation if you were the chief of police for a local police department. At a conference, you just learned about a new communications technology that would greatly assist your officers, and would address a problem the officers have been complaining about for the past couple of years.

In 750-1,000 words, do the following:

• Explain various strategies you can use to get funding to purchase this new technology for the department.
• Describe the implications for police management when identifying the future needs of police and community stakeholders. What do police management have to consider and deal with when identifying future needs?
• Discuss how police management can find a balance between police needs and public needs if those two needs are in conflict.

Be sure to cite three to five relevant scholarly sources in support of your content. Use only sources found at the GCU Library, government websites, or those provided in Resources.
