Program Updates: If you are using the COPM vehicles assigned to your district the hours of 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., they will be used primary for patrolling elementary schools in your area.
The COP Mobile program is designed to reduce property crimes
such as auto and residential burglaries by directing strategic
patrols to areas in need of a visible presence. These City-owned
vehicles are not designed in any way to resemble a police patrol
car yet give a clear indication that the driver is trained to contact
Police immediately if they view suspicious activity, a crime in
progress or even a medical emergency.
