Citizens in Action is a program designed to allow volunteers to write handicap parking citations, patrol city parks, identify illegally stored vehicles, and conduct traffic radar surveys. Participants wear unique uniforms and drive distinctly marked vehicles. Attendance in the Citizens Police Academy is a pre-requisite to becoming a Citizens in Action volunteer. They are responsible for disseminating information to and interacting with the public on behalf of the police department. They also meet regularly to further their training.
