The Field Operations Division is the largest of all divisions and comprises more than 80% of all employees. This Division is responsible for the direct response and investigation of crimes. The heart and soul of the Field Operations Division is the uniformed police officer who is responsible for providing citizens with twenty-four hour, "first responder" services. These men and women work nights, weekends, and holidays, in good weather and in bad.

The Officers of the Field Operations Division respond to all types of calls, from parking complaints to homicides. When not answering calls for service, officers are responsible for self-initiated activity in enforcing our laws and preventing crime through their interaction with the public. As with all employees, field operations personnel are directly involved in problem-solving and building strong, positive relationships with those they serve.
