NE NSP CHP Bottleneck/NFOA/Andy Allen

Andy............

It's increasingly clear that the NE NSP CHP processing operation in Grand Island is pretty bottlenecked right now with a potload of new and renewal CHP applications.

Seems to be no point in carping on Sgt. Craig Loveless and his group, who are the state employees responsible for the processing operation.    This very demanding task has been handed to Sgt. Loveless as a part-time collateral duty, in addition to his usual trooper training tasks, SWAT team operations, etc., etc.   He's a good man and probably needs more hands and more help to get the backlog reduced and the schedule back on track.

My suggestion here is that it might be worthwhile for an NFOA officer with some official organizational standing to call Sgt. Loveless and see if there is any action that can be taken by the NFOA to draw attention to the obvious staffing needs for the CHP processing operation.    Temps, part-timers, volunteers, whatever.    AT $100 per pop, it would seem that hiring additional hands would speed up their revenue flow.

Anyhow, you are the official that I have in mind to make the call.

Your thoughts, comments, etc., are invited.

[By the way, my 5-day CHP renewal period is now at 35 days.   Good thing I started 4 months early.   And if we can't count on a mandatory 5 days, we also can't count on the mandatory 45 days.]

I wish that something would be done. My CCW permit application was sent in 50 days ago and I have heard nothing. I was told that it would be 90 days and it looks like it is going to be that long.  This was at Troop D in North Platte.

The law says if it is not done in 45 you get a permit issued anyway.  That permit can be invalidated once all of the paperwork is done on your actual application.  I would like to see people demand the permit be issued as stated in the statute. 

omaharj:
I agree. Perhaps it's intentional by high up executives in the NSP to understaff the process,perhaps not. Either way, the NSP isn't following the statute and should be called on the carpet. At what we are being charged,this should be a positive cash flow situation for them. If they claim otherwise,I'd like to see a cost analysis of the process. Maybe we can get the cost lowered,heheh.  Go get 'em Andy.

I don't believe Sgt Loveless has anything to do with the issuing of permits, he is simply the one responsible for CHP Instructors.

All permits are processed at the Lincoln CID office, and they seem to be seriously under staffed. I would recommend that anyone who does not get their permit in the time prescribed by law call the Governors office... maybe plenty of squeaky wheels in that direction will make some changes.

I know that Sen Christensen's Office was in contact with the Capt in charge of Professional Standards, but that didn't seem to light any fires.
