The Patrol Services Division performs the primary function of the police department, responding to calls for service, rendering aid, enforcing all laws and providing a response to all other requests for service.
Problem solving is a major focus of our patrol division.
In addition to patrol duties, the Patrol Services Division was fully immersed in National Night Out, the Safe and Sober campaigns, Operation ABC and all of the special events and programs such as parades and concerts in the park. In the Patrol Services Division, there are thirteen officers, one part time traffic enforcement officer, four sergeants and two police assistants. They make up three squads and each squad works one of three shifts. The police assistants handle animal calls, maintain the dog pound, assist in traffic control and take other minor reports. This year, the police assistants emphasis was on getting animals vaccinated and licensed.
