The recent spate of fatal pedestrian-auto crashes prompted PPB to put some extra patrols on the streets.

Commander Ball and Officer Sieng have been working with State Representative Brent Barton on a bill honoring fallen Oregon City Reserve Officer Rob Libke.

Chief sponsors of the House Bill 4120 include three Clackamas County lawmakers, along with two from Portland. The bill, currently before the 2014 Oregon Legislature's House Business and Labor Committee, had its first hearing Monday.

Reserve Commander Robert Ball and Reserve Officer Patrick Sieng are working with State Representative Brent Barton on a bill to extend scholarship benefits to dependents of reserve officers and volunteer firefighters killed or injured in the line of duty. http://www.oregonlive.com/oregon-city/index.ssf/2013/11/oregon_city_representative_wan.html

Originally, police officer benefits were tied to PERS, which excluded volunteer officers. A 2011 bill remedied much of that, but there are some benefits still missing, such as scholarships for the children of police officers who died.

Commander Robert Ball shares his thoughts on Officer Rob Libke and reserve units in Oregon...

There are approximately 1,300 reserve officers throughout the state of Oregon. All are unpaid volunteers.
