serve citizens who call or w alk in
to their neighborhood police sta­
tions. T hey are often the first con­
tact people have when attempting
to address needs or concerns with
the police. The desk clerks answ er
p h o n es, g reet c itiz e n s, an sw er

officers to return to the precinct to
make telephone calls.
Citizens wishing to fill out accident
reports, meet with officers to dis­

with supervisors regarding officer
com plaints, or who are used to
calling their neighborhood precinct
for any community policing issue
will have to do so during regular
business hours.
