Coos Bay Police Oganization & Staff
Police Department staff currently consists of the Chief of Police, Operations Captains, Administrative Sergeant, four Patrol Sergeants, twelve Patrol Officers, two Criminal Detectives and one Narcotics Detective. The Communications Division is comprised of two Supervisors and eight Dispatchers. Support staff includes one Records Supervisor, two Records Specialists, one part-time Evidence Custodian, one Code Enforcement Officer, and numerous volunteers.
The Criminal Detectives handle major crime investigations and are members of the Coos County District Attorney’s Major Incident Team. One Detective is assigned to the South Coast Interagency Narcotics Team (SCINT).
The Patrol Division provides twenty four hour a day, seven days a week, emergency response throughout the City. These officers are divided into four platoons and provide traditional police duties, as well as crime prevention and community problem solving services.
The Communications Division is one of Coos County’s two 9-1-1 Centers and provides police, fire and emergency medical dispatch for Coos Bay Police and Fire Departments, Coquille Tribal Police, Coquille City Police and Fire Departments.
The Support Services Division provides state and federal mandated archival record keeping duties, statistical analysis and dissemination of information. Staff assigned to Support Services works closely with the Courts, District Attorney’s Office and other law enforcement and public agencies to ensure information is collected and disseminated in accordance with State statutory requirements.
The Department’s Volunteer Group is made up of Reserve Police Officers and civilian volunteers. Typical duties range from working with sworn Police Officers on patrol to enforcing Disabled parking rules and regulations, enforcing special parking districts throughout the City and through a cooperative agreement in the City of North Bend.
Our agency continuously reviews the way we deploy resources to increase our ability to respond to community needs and advance the use of technology to enhance our efficiency and effectiveness. However, technology can never replace the value that you, as citizens, have in sharing information with your local law enforcement officers.
