RENO COUNTY – The Reno County Public Information site, also known as the online Police Bulletin, debuted a new look as of June 1. After a year of data migration, testing, and revisions, the new bulletin replaced the old one, with some new added features.
The site still features daily arrests, accidents, and activity from the Hutchinson Police Department, Reno County Sheriff’s Office, and the South Hutchinson Police Department, along with the Reno County Correctional Facility log, and Most Wanted listings. There are placeholders for the Buhler and Haven Police Departments for possible future integration as well. It also includes helpful new links to found property, found animals, city codes, traffic ordinances, traffic and travel info.
“The primary reason for updating to the new RCPS application was to maintain existing data while moving to more modern software and security standards, which means it will be more maintainable and stable in the future – also this development process is understanding that departments have more information to release and share than just bulletins and that these needs can shift over time,” stated Reno County Database Administrator Trevor Ozbun.
The underlying framework used in this RCPS application was created for and is being used to develop several other in-house applications as well. To view the updated bulletin, visit www.renopublicsafety.com/.
