Investigative Section
All Novi Police Detectives are assigned to specific geographical
areas of the city as their area of responsibility. The detectives’
assignments are based on the same patrol areas that the road patrol
are assigned. The goal is for the area detectives to foster
relationships with the residents, business leaders and community
leaders throughout their district. This allows detectives to become
more familiar with the problems that take place in the district by
networking with the officers assigned to the same district.
In addition to the seven patrol
districts, other responsibilities in the Investigative Section;
DARE, Crime prevention and SONIC.
Novi Police Detectives regularly attend informational meetings
throughout the community and metropolitan Detroit that cover
intelligence dissemination, gang task forces, school liaisons and
local youth forums.
