In our Annual Report to the community we stated:

“Patrol visibility and traffic enforcement play a key role in reducing crime, vehicle accidents, OVI, and traffic offenses that often directly or indirectly contribute to vehicle accidents. Studies have shown that active visible patrol is an effective deterrent to many of these problems. Our overall goal is simple: keep our community safe for residents, pedestrians, cyclists and motorists, and maintain a reputation that Oakwood is a community where traffic laws are enforced.
