DEPT /DIVISION /ACTIVITY: Police Patrol 42123
PROFILE
The Patrol Division is comprised of the Patrol Unit, Community Services Unit, and
Emergency Services Unit (an ancillary service). The philosophy of the Patrol Division
embraces the concept of Problem and Community Oriented Policing which encourages
our community's residents and businesses to take an active role in the deterrence of
crime. By allowing and encouraging residents and businesses to actively participate with
the police, strong ties are formed and a stronger sense of community is created.
Patrol Unit
The Patrol Unit consists of one Commander, five Sergeants, twenty -four Patrol Officers,
and six part-time Community Service Officers (CSOs). Sworn, uniformed officers
respond to calls- for service of both emergency and non emergency nature. In addition,
police services conduct proactive patrol in residential and commercial areas to deter
crime and increase traffic safety. Officers seek to make a positive difference in the lives
of the residents of Brooklyn Center and the community.
Community Service Officers are utilized to perform police related duties that do not
require a sworn police officer. CSOs also respond to complaints concerning both wild
and domestic animals.
Community Services Unit
The Community Services Unit consists of both sworn and non -sworn employees working
in such a way that each member, acting in their own unique capacity, will rely on the
others in the Unit to carry out proactive problem solving initiatives. This unit consists of
one Commander who manages one sergeant, three sworn Problem Oriented Police
Officer, three Commercial Unit Police Officers, a Crime Analyst, Crime Prevention
Specialist, and Community Liaison. The Problem Oriented Police Officers will
specialize in different areas such as auto theft, narcotics, violent crimes, violent offenders
and gangs, and troubleshooting problem hotspots. In addition, a Commercial Unit was
developed to address business crime issues. This unit specializes in areas such as hotel/
motel management, the commercial area, and the Metro Transit bus hub.
Emergencv Services Unit
Emergency Services is an ancillary function of the Division that provides specialized
expertise and response to a variety of natural and manmade occurrences. The Emergency
Services Unit includes the Emergency Operations and Emergency Management Units.
The Emergency Operations Unit (E.O.U.) is a team of officers who have received
specialized training in negotiation skills and tactical skills to properly respond to critical
incidents. This unit seeks to peacefully resolve critical incidents and to safely execute
high risk search warrants within the City of Brooklyn Center. The unit has been
successfully deployed on many occasions since its inception in the 1980s. The
Emergency Management Unit supports the City's Emergency Preparedness Division to
ensure the effective and coordinated use of resources in the event of a natural or
manmade disaster.
