  testing.

community members; lead proactive patrol initiatives and foster collaborative problem-solving to
identify and mitigate security risks.
Represent the department in cross-functional meetings with internal stakeholders to address
evolving security needs; compile and present data for compliance and strategic planning.
Coordinate with Community Relations personnel on physical security and crime prevention
