Police Divisions
The Campbell Police Department is divided in three main divisions as well as an Explorer Post.
The Field Services Division
It is also known as the Patrol Division is staffed by 20 officers, 4 agents, 4 sergeants and headed up by a captain[1] and primarily responds to emergencies and non-emergencies within the City of Campbell.[2] On occasion officers will respond to calls for assistance from the neighboring jurisdictions of San Jose and Los Gatos/Monte Sereno.
The Special Enforcement Division
This division has two groups that fall under the title. Both equally important, they are: the Investigative Services Unit and the Traffic Unit.[3]
The Investigative Services Unit conducts follow-up on crimes that have been committed wiith the goal of subduing the suspects and helping the District Attorney's Office successfully prosecuting them. The unit is composed of one sergeant and five investigators and is overseen by a captain. The main areas of specialization are robbery and homicide, sexual assaults, and property and financial crimes. The investigative unit also participates in SCCSET or the Santa Clara County Specialized Enforcement Team which is a regional task force.[4]
The Traffic Unit is responsible for enforcing traffic laws, investigating traffic accidents and road closures for special events. Many of the main jobs include the NTMP or Neighborhood Traffic Management Program, parking enforcement, especially around Campbell's downtown area, and the SCC Avoid the 13 Campaign. Most of the officers assigned to this unit are placed on motorcycles. This includes one sergeant, an agent and 2 to 3 officers. Crossing guards are also under the command of the sergeant in this division as are Community Service Officers. Recently the motorcycle officers participated in the motorcade for fallen Officer Michael Johnson of neighboring San Jose Police Department.[5]
Support Services Division
This division is made up of the Records Unit, Communications Unit and the Property and Evidence Unit.
Communications is also known as dispatch and is the Public Safety Answering Point for Campbell. This means that all calls to 911 are answered by the staff of this unit. Communications will handle all police and traffic related calls and transfer fire and medical calls to Santa Clara County Communications.
Records handles parking ticket, releases for vehicles towed in Campbell, citation sign-offs and giving copies of police reports.
