Community Policing: "Same Cop - Same Beat"

---

Our community is tightly integrated and a complaint received is always a community issue. The Saco Police Department is an extension of the community and it is imperative that we work in partnership with our citizens, if we are to be successful in living up to our mission statement "to provide a safer, healthier, and more peaceful environment." By establishing a "Same Cop-Same Beat" system, we accomplish a team-policing concept to better organize and maximize our effectiveness, and to deliver a more consistent and personalized service to promote citizen participation.

Each zone has eight officers assigned to it (two supervisors and two officers from each shift). Since officers work the same zone they become more familiar with residents and the problems or concerns that are particular to the zone. They are also given the freedom to initiate or assist citizens with "Crime Watch", community meetings, bike rodeos, business meetings, etc. Below are the zones with the assigned officers. To contact an officer by email just click on their name.
