Community Service Officers

 

The Community Service Officers (CSO) are responsible for maintaining the Police Department's dog pound and animal control, traffic control, petty misdemeanors/ordinance violations such as parking complaints, curfew violations, underage tobacco use, and administering first aid. Currently there are three CSO's, two full-time positions and one part-time position.

 

 

The CSO program had been operating with used police vehicles for many years, which caused some difficulty when transporting animals or bikes to their appropriate places.  In 2003 the CSO program was able to get a vehicle geared more towards their everyday duties.  The truck has proven to be a better equipped vehicle for the situations they encounter. CSO Cantu works the evening shift.
