Larimer county is 2,640 square miles and is comprised of both urban and rural mountainous areas.  Due to the unique location and size of the county, providing law enforcement services is a challenging endeavor.  The law enforcement jurisdiction is broken down into seven Areas.  Areas 1 through 5 are known as our "Valley Patrol" due to the fact they are comprised of the urban areas of the county to include the cities of Fort Collins and Loveland.  Our Mountain Squad is made up of Areas 6 and 7, which constitutes the majority of our rural mountainous areas.  Area 6 covers the Estes Valley and operates out of a satellite office, while Area 7 covers the Red Feather, Livermore, and Glacier View areas.  The Patrol Division is also tasked with providing contracted law enforcement services to the citizens of the Towns of Wellington and Berthoud.

Crime Mapping

LexisNexis® Community Crime Map connects law enforcement with the community to reduce crime and improve public safety. Crime mapping helps the public get a better idea of the crime activity in their area so they can make more informed decisions about how to stay safe.
 
Community Crime Map goes beyond crime mapping by automatically alerting the public about recent crime activity and by improving communication between the public and law enforcement through anonymous tips. Community Crime Map empowers the public to make better decisions about crime by putting the same technology used by law enforcement to analyze and interpret crime activity into the hands of the public.

The Larimer County Sheriff's Office Communications Center is one of five Public Safety Answering Points in Larimer County. The Communications Center answers both emergency and non-emergency calls and is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The unit consists of 19 Emergency Communications full-time positions including four supervisor positions, and two to four operators are on duty at any one time.  

The Sheriff's Office dispatches deputies to unincorporated Larimer County, the Town of Wellington, and the Town of Berthoud. Dispatching services are also provided to Timnath Police Department, LCSO Emergency Services, Larimer County Search and Rescue, Larimer County Dive Rescue, Larimer County Parks, State Parks, and numerous volunteer fire and ambulance departments.

The Sheriff's Office Emergency Communications Operators are trained in a 24 week, on-the-job training program, as well as in Emergency Medical Dispatch, in order to obtain national certification. During this training, the operators are trained on Central Square Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system, state CCIC/NCIC system, VIPER phone system, NICE recording system, and Motorola touch screen 800MHz and VHF radio system. There are also many other resources and programs used within the Communications Center in order to best assist the community.

Each dispatch console is equipped with six computer monitors, two keyboards, one ten-key Genovation keypad for the VIPER system, and three computer mice. The dispatchers manage 30 phone lines, 10 of which are emergency 911 lines, as well as monitoring 51 radio talk groups, actively dispatching on 16 of them.  The operators become very skilled at multi-tasking and being aware of what their co-workers are handling, as well as keeping track of what deputies and other field responders are doing.
