“Being in the community that we serve is a key component to building relationships,” Chief Lawrence Revell said. “It’s important we continue to do our part to remind the community that we are HERE for them, even before they need us. This approach builds stronger connections between residents and law enforcement officers and seeks to find collaborative solutions to community issues, from minor infractions to systemic problems.”
