City of Madison Police Community South District Community Policing Team

South District Community Policing Team

The South community policing team spends a great deal of time addressing drug and weapon crimes. The team also focuses on traffic enforcement, problem-solving and community outreach. A typical week for a CPT officer can include executing a drug-related search warrant, performing a traffic enforcement project, attending a community meeting, conducting surveillance or looking for a wanted person.

Each community policing team officer is assigned a geographic portion of the district. The officers are responsible for monitoring crime patterns and neighborhood issues within their area.
