    Accomplishments

    NPOs disseminate their weekly activity report to the shift sergeants. During our monthly meetings we have delegated authority to NPOs to take ownership of their respective areas and reach out to specialized units and their beat officers.  We have a citywide property crimes meeting so we communicate across Divisional lines.   The specialized units weekly reports are disseminated to all patrol supervisors.  We reach out to specialized units on a weekly basis and vice versa. Roll calls have been cancelled at this time due to COVID-19, so NPOs have not attended these.
