Neighborhood Officer Program

In order to have a more diverse group within the police department participating with the outreach activities in the neighborhoods, a system of geographic responsibility has been established by Sgt. Greg Fawkes under the direction of Chief Scott C. Rohmer. The officers involved are assigned to each of the four neighborhoods (Neighborhood Officers). These officers are primarily responsible for much of the outreach and problem-solving activities in their neighborhood while continuing to answer calls to service throughout the Town of Ashland.
