City of Kyle, County in agreement to fund minor crimes reporting software

Kyle City Council unanimously voted to enter a memorandum of understanding with Hays County to fund and implement an online citizen reporting software for minor crimes.

Desk Officer Reporting System, or DORS, is a controlled-access, online citizen reporting system designed to “save valuable law enforcement time and resources and better serve citizens.”

“This will allow citizens to report minor crimes to the police department from the comfort of their home,” Chief of Police Jeff Barnett explained. “The online format will save us some manpower hours of sending officers to take theft reports, small or moderate incident reports, reports that people simply want to document for insurance purposes and other things.”
