The Dispatch/Records Program is often the first link in communication between the public and the Police Department. Emergency 911 calls for Police, Fire, and first responders to medical emergencies are all taken by a Community Service Officer (CSO) in the Dispatch Center.

Community Service Officers assigned to the Dispatch Center are also involved in servicing non-emergency telephone calls, walk-ins to the Police Department lobby, acting as the point of contact for other police and public safety agencies, as well as assisting the CSO/Records Supervisor in maintaining department records.

Copies of police reports (first 10 pages are free - each additional page is 10¢ per page) may be obtained at the Police Department by providing date, time and name(s) of subjects involved in the report along with a state issued photo identification card. If you are a suspect in a criminal report, you must obtain a copy of the report through your defense attorney.
