Since 1977, the Lemon Grove Station has been
providing contract law enforcement services to the City
of Lemon Grove and the unincorporated communities of
Spring Valley, Rancho San Diego, Jamul, Mt. Helix, Casa
de Oro, La Mesa and El Cajon.
Patrol
Patrol deputies respond to calls for service, 24
hours a day. Each patrol deputy is assigned to a
geographical “beat” area which enables the deputies to
become familiar with the residents in their “beat” and
with the problems in the area. The “beat” system is a
cornerstone of the community oriented policing concept
requiring the interaction of neighborhood residents with
law enforcement. Patrol deputies also participate in the community,
while on duty, attending Neighborhood Watch meetings and
making presentations to youth groups, service groups and
schools.
Traffic
The Traffic Division handles vehicle code
enforcement, traffic collision investigations and
traffic control within the city of Lemon Grove. The
California Highway Patrol is the agency responsible for
traffic enforcement in the unincorporated areas
throughout the State of California.
Detectives
Detectives investigate cases involving theft,
physical assaults (excluding homicides), sexual
assaults, vandalism, burglaries, annoying phone calls
and other crimes. Specialized investigative units such
as homicide, bomb/arson, financial crimes, domestic
violence, child abuse and narcotics handle specific
crimes for the entire Sheriff’s jurisdiction, including
the Lemon Grove Station.
