Patrol Division

The Patrol Division consists of 3 Sergeants, 14 Patrol Officers, and 1 Training Coordinator. There are 2 programs involved with the Patrol Division:

The purpose of the Patrol Services Division is to work with the community to reduce crime through current professional community policing techniques and to treat citizens and visitors courteously and with respect while enforcing municipal, state, and federal laws in a fair and impartial manner. The Patrol Services Division will pursue and apprehend offenders and obtain legal evidence necessary to ensure the conviction of such offenders in criminal courts.

The mission of the Patrol Services Division is to respond to calls for service promptly, apply community policing problem-solving techniques to keep the peace in our community, and to be proactive in identifying problem areas and working with the community to find solutions.

The Steamboat Springs Police Services Department offers a ride along program in which citizens may ride with an uniformed police officer during his or her regular duty shift. This program is a great way for the City of Steamboat Springs citizens to witness firsthand how their law enforcement officials help to keep the community safe. Those interested in the program must fill out an application available at the Department.
