Welcome to the Cactus Park Precinct!

Located in the northwest section of the city, Cactus Park is approximately 30 square miles with a population of over 188,000 residents. The precinct is divided into squad areas designated as 91, 92, and 93. Our station consists of 202 highly trained patrol officers, 16 reserve officers, 19 supervisors, 6 lieutenants, and 5 civilian employees. The precinct provides patrol coverage for the Cactus Park community, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  In 2011, approximately 101,688 calls were responded to within Cactus Park Precinct boundaries.  Our philosophy revolves around community policing with a problem-solving approach that incorporates our officers, the citizens we serve, and the business community. Together, we firmly believe that we can improve and enhance the quality of life and protection for all of our citizens in Cactus Park.

CACTUS PARK COMMUNITY ALLIANCE

The Cactus Park Community Alliance welcomes you to the increasing number of neighborhood organizations operating within the Cactus Park Police Precinct.  We also extend an invitation to you to become a part of our family of neighborhood groups.  The Cactus Park Community Alliance was organized to bring together neighborhood groups located within the Cactus Park Police Precinct. CPCA facilitates interactions between neighborhoods, government, and law enforcement; focusing on crime prevention and quality of life improvements within the Cactus Park Precinct service area.  For information email CPCA at: CommunityInfo@CPCAaz.org 

AUTHORITY TO ARREST TRESPASSERS

Why is a completed Authority to Arrest form and proper signage a good thing?  When your business is closed (unoccupied), if an officer sees someone on your property they suspect does not belong there, they can make an arrest if your property has “No Trespassing” signs posted and has an Authority to Arrest form on file with the police department.  Without these items, the officer does not have your authority to arrest someone on your private property.  When you complete the form you are giving us the authority to act on your behalf.  You must also have the proper signage at all reasonable points of entry onto your property (where a normal customer would be expected to pass in order to enter your premises). Something else to keep in mind…an officer may issue a Citation in Lieu of Detention.  This means the suspect is signing a promise to appear in court in lieu of going to jail, although it is still considered an arrest.  Once completed, you can submit a Authority to Arrest form by fax or email.
