Security Patrol

Frequently

ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the Security Patrol?

The Security Patrol is a team of privately hired, off-duty Fort Lauderdale police officers who
patrol CRCCE in city police cars.
Why do we need a Security Patrol?

CRCCE is bordered on three sides by major roads with commercial businesses that
attract customers from every part of the county. In addition to access from any of these roads,
Bayview Drive cuts through the entire north-south axis of the neighborhood. Constant
out-of-area traffic with easy access makes CRCCE an attractive target. The patrol provides
an extra level of safety. They are a supplement to regular Fort Lauderdale police officers.
The Patrol officers’ frequency in the neighborhood ensures that they will become acquainted
with members and their homes.
When will the officers be on patrol?

Detail Coordinator Lt. DeAnna Greenlaw sets the patrol hours,
varying them to prevent establishing a recognizable pattern.
After the completion of their shift, officers submit an activity log.
How do I summon help in an emergency?

• In any emergency – CALL 911. Patrol officers will be monitoring the department radio and
as a backup dispatch will notify the officer directly that there is a problem in his area.

• Non-emergency needs should call: (954) 764-4357 (HELP)
