June 15, 2022, Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes
Unscheduled Public Appearances
LISA SNYDER, 4077 S. Sabrina Dr, Chandler, spoke about a safety incident Bogle Junior High on
Wednesday, August 10. She stated her son is an eighth grader and drops him off and picks him
up each day. Last Wednesday afternoon, she happened to arrive 10 minutes early for pickup and
witnessed suspicious activity; three males, approximately 18 to 20 years old, they exited a vehicle
that she did not recognize. She specified that one male was carrying a backpack that looked empty
and that did not make sense. She contacted the school twice immediately to alert security that
three suspicious males were walking towards the west side entrance and disappeared and a
second time to let security know that the males had reappeared and left without a student or a
Page 12 of 13
parent. She provided the vehicle description and license plate and was immediately transferred
to the voicemail of School Resource Officer Tyler Service. She stated that leaving a voicemail is not
enough and did not sleep that night. She did not feel comfortable sending her son to school until
the information had reached someone who could act. She contacted Chandler Police Non-
Emergency to relay the description to dispatch. She said her husband drove to the school to relay
the information in person to a School Resource Officer Tyler Service. She thanked Officer Service
for his swift response, by the end of the school day, Officer Service had identified the males and
had taken action. One of the males had already been criminally trespassed from every Chandler
School District campus. She stated that it took 16 hours to get the information into the hands of
a trained professional that could take action to protect our kids. She assumed that SRO Service
was absent, so the school just simply transferred her to his voicemail and was alarmed when she
learned that there is no backup plan for coverage when a School Resource Office is out and that
not every school has a School Resource Office. She assumed that School Resource Officer
coverage was full-time regardless of absence especially with the current state of school safety in
the country. She encouraged a higher level of support for the School Resource Officer Program.
She reiterated that 16 hours is far too long to share critical information and that every school
campus in the City of Chandler deserves full time school resource officer coverage.
