Patrol Division
A Message from the Patrol
Commander
Police departments were
originally created by munici- palities to provide public
service to it's citizens. The ability of a police department
to carry out this public service mission depends most
critically upon the capabilities of the uniformed officers
of the patrol division.
In the City of Beverly the
uniformed patrol officer is the central figure of the police
department. It is the patrol officer who almost always
responds whenever a citizen calls for any type of help or
assistance.
Beverly Citizens should be
assured that we are striving to provide the highest level of
professionalism in our police officers. As Commander of
Patrol Operations for the Beverly Police Department I
realize that the patrol officer is often the only personal
contact that a citizen will have with our public safety
agency.
As the development of our web
site evolves during the coming months, we will introduce to
the citizenry the inner workings of our public safety
department, and will focus on the patrol services that are
readily available to everyone.
Sincerely,
Captain Alan E. Petersen |
