WHAT IS A PSA?

each led by a police captain. Within each district, the Department has

created two to four smaller geographical subdivisions called Police

Services Areas (PSAs), for a total of 64 throughout the city. Each PSA is

headed by a police lieutenant, who along with an average of four

sergeants and fifty-six officers, are now responsible for patrolling the

same area, day in and day out, bringing greater community contact,

familiarity and involvement.

model requires that our District captains and Police Service Area

partnership with the community. The men and women in patrol will

lead the Department in these efforts.
