OPERATIONS
PatrolThe Patrol Division provides police service to the community 24 hours a day. Officers within the division generally work in uniform and drive “marked” (black and white) police cars. Almost half of Burbank’s sworn police
officers are assigned to patrol. This division enforces traffic laws, investigates all observed or reported suspicious activities, and interacts with residents and businesses to promote a sense of community. Officers utilize directed patrol to target specific areas to positively impact the crime rate by deterring criminal activity and apprehending suspects. This division is also responsible for the Communication Center (911) operation ensuring rapid response to calls for service. Patrol maintains the readiness of the Special Response Team for resolution of critical incidents and specialty assignments such as the K-9 unit, park patrol, and the bicycle detail.Back to Operations
