The team had 154 calls for service last year which is a 13% increase from 2015.
A report presented to the police services board Tuesday indicates that calls have steadily jumped since 2010 because of "the increased complexities and responsibilities of policing like mental health issues."
Weapons-related calls continues to be the highest types of call with 54 in 2106 compared to 39 in 2015.
The completed study is slated to be presented to council in late September.
