On January 13", 2010, Captain Cherry received a transfer evaluation from retiring Assistant Chief of Police G. W. Hastings rating him as a Level IV. As part of the basis for that evaluation, it was listed that Captain Cherry worked flexible hours, weekends, interacted well with communities being served by the Eastem Patrol Division, demonstrated a genuine concern for Division members. This time period covered the first two quarters of this evaluation period. During the third quarter of this evaluation period, Captain Cherry was again rated a Level IV, largely for the same reasons as noted above, but also included his involvement with the North Carolina Child Response Initiative pilot program in the Eastern Division and his attention to crime issues in the Division. It was also noted that the Staff Inspections Unit provided a favorable report on the Division and Captain Cherry’s leadership. There were two negative performance indicators discussed with Captain Cherry during his 3 Quarter evaluation regarding his leadership, but they did not affect the overall evaluation. Also during this evaluation period, as a result of a City Council request, Captain Cherry prepared a ninety (90) day strategic plan to address crime issues along the Phillips Ave. corridor. This plan became effective on May 15" and is currently ongoing. During the 4" Quarter evaluation period Captain Cherry has produced or helped produce numerous documents in his own name and for subordinate employee’s, including at least one not under his command, These documents themselves have contained false and misleading statements requiring the completion of additionaladministative investigations. His actions have not only had a negative impact on his own performance, but those of other members of the Department as well Captaira Cherry’s actions have been a significant disruption, not only for the Police Departrnent, but the City as well. Furthermore, he has demonstrated personal behavior in the presence of both sworn and non-sworn subordinate personnel that has caused them discomfort and concern resulting in administrative investigations. ‘As aresilt of his actions, Captain Cherry’s 4" Quarter evaluation rating was a Level I. During this evaluation period, Captain Cherry failed in his responsibilities as a Commanding Officer in the Greensboro Police Department during the 4" quarter. This complete failure in leadership and judgment significantly outweighs the considerations given tothe previous quarters. Captain Cherry’s overall performance rating is LEVEL I for this evaluation period. IL Signature of Emplpyee Signature of Supervisor Date Served Employee Comments:
