Patrol
Uniformed Patrol
The uniformed patrol function of the Fairfield Township Police Department is in operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is the most visible section of the police department. Officers that are assigned to this section primarily patrol in marked police cars, although at times they may be seen patrolling using other effective methods, such as foot patrol around business districts and patrolling on bicycle. The police department operates three different shifts, each having an assigned sergeant and patrol officers, allowing for adequate personnel and supervision.
The patrol section interacts with the community on a continuous basis and assigned officers have the primary duty of responding to calls for police service, conducting preliminary investigations of offenses, following up on applicable investigations and enforcing the laws of the State of Ohio. Patrol officers also have the responsibility of apprehending offenders, preventing crime through deterrence and education, and maintaining positive relationships with the community.
Traffic Complaints and Speed Trailer
Our goal is to promote safety through education and enforcement. This includes enforcing traffic laws, investigating traffic crashes, and being visible by patrolling the roadways within the township in order to deter traffic violations and reduce traffic crashes.
If you would like to report a special traffic-related concern, or are interested in having the department speed trailer set up at a particular location, contact us during business hours at 513-887-4406.
