 The
City of Senoia Police Department handles any activity within the
Senoia city limits. Under the direction of Chief Jason Edens,
the Senoia Police Department covers approximately a 5 square
mile area to provide public safety to approximately 5,000
citizens.
The department is
located at 505 Howard Road. The department has 13 sworn
officers, and 2 civilian employees. The department offers a full
range of policing services, including preventive patrol, traffic
enforcement, criminal investigations, crime
prevention,
and drug prevention.
The department operates under the
community policing concept, which stresses involvement with the
community, and placing resources where they are most needed. It
also stresses trying to remove the root causes of crime and
neighborhood deterioration. The department is structured with
two main divisions: Patrol, and Criminal Investigations.
The primary division of the
department is the patrol division which is responsible for
preventive patrol, traffic enforcement, and response to calls
for service. The division is divided into four shifts so that
protection is provided 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
Officers typically work a 43-hour workweek, counting time spent
writing reports and attending the various courts in which their
cases are presented.
There is one
investigator assigned to the criminal investigations division
who is responsible for in-depth investigations of crimes in
order to build successful cases for prosecution. The
investigator works closely with the district attorney's staff
and investigators from the Georgia
Bureau of Investigation,
Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Coweta County Sheriff's
Office. |
