The Patrol Division remains the largest component of the Hamilton Police
Department and is truly the backbone of our organization. It provides the
basic police service of preserving the peace and protecting the lives and
properties of others. It is our mission that this service is
professionally provided to our customers in a courteous, empathetic
manner. The other sections within the Hamilton Police Department consist
of varying degrees of specialization that have been created to assist the
Patrol Division in providing this police service. The
Patrol Division is
divided into three rotating shifts each consisting of one lieutenant and
two sergeants. Each shift operating at full complement is comprised of
eighteen patrol officers. One officer in each shift will be a canine
officer.
