The project envisioned a formal collaborative structure involving a management team of police and university personnel, a jointly controlled fund pool, a common project space, and continuous joint monitoring of the initial project to allow for cooperative determination of adjustments in research focus. One of the major accomplishments of this project was a University-sponsored conference that involved police personnel, including district commanders, in discussions of neighborhood stabilization, the role academics can play in strengthening the local community, and how police and academics might more effectively work with each other to advance community-oriented policing strategies. Specific areas of joint interest in the research project included the role of sergeants in community oriented policing, assessing sergeants' leadership styles, and a crime audit.
