The purpose of a PAR officer is to have a direct contact for citizens when dealing with neighborhood concerns and complaints. PAR officers work varying schedules, which allows them to focus the necessary attention to neighborhood concerns and complaints. PAR officers utilize criminal codes when possible to deal with neighborhood complaints or concerns, but also work with other City departments when those complaints or concerns can be addressed through other non-criminal City codes. When PAR officers get involved in a neighborhood issue, their job is not to find fault or place blame, but to coordinate and facilitate efforts in hopes of solving the identified problem.
You can also contact your PAR officer for questions pertaining to Neighborhood Watch or Business Watch.
