Community Patrol Division

The Community Patrol Division is committed to providing comprehensive police service to our citizens through community policing partnerships and problem solving initiatives. As the backbone of the agency, members of the Community Patrol Division serve as first responders to critical incidents, conduct initial follow-up, respond to calls for service and enforce criminal statutes and municipal ordinances. Officers employ both traditional and non-traditional policing methods and regularly join with the Investigative Division and the Community Response Task Force in addressing concerns. Their focus is to eliminate crime problems, and improve the quality of life in Delray Beach.
