The Emergency Team is a roster of people willing to volunteer during disaster situations. Training programs will be approximately twice a year and will focus on what you can expect in disaster situations. The Emergency team can be called out on anything from natural disasters to crime scene situations. Duties usually include jobs that are routine or can easily be learned at the time assigned. The General Team helps with miscellaneous duties for the department.
Tasks are usually short term duties that can be completed within one to two hours.
Members are contacted about their availability and interest whenever an assignment comes up. Members utilize unmarked vehicles and radios during their assignments. Their primary focus is to report assaults, theft and damage type incidents to our central dispatch and direct patrol units to the correct area. Lot Watch can also be used in other types of crimes where a series or pattern has been established. The Vehicle Team handles the weekly service and inspection of our patrol fleet.
