The Reserve Peace Officer will patrol assigned areas of the Town of Fletcher to deter and detect criminal activity and will respond to calls for service, emergencies, disturbances, suspicious activity, and other incidents. Duties may include enforcement of state laws and Town of Fletcher ordinances, traffic enforcement, investigation of motor vehicle crashes, preliminary and follow-up criminal investigations, interviews of victims, witnesses, and suspects, lawful arrests, and other appropriate enforcement actions.
Reserve Peace Officers Officers will prepare accurate, thorough, and timely incident, arrest, and investigative reports and will properly collect, preserve, document, and handle evidence. Officers may assist with crime scenes, investigations, prisoner transportation, warrant service, business and residential checks, and other departmental assignments. Reserve Officers may also provide assistance and backup to department personnel and other law-enforcement agencies when requested and may provide law-enforcement and security services during special events and community activities.

Officers are responsible for maintaining required certifications and proficiency in applicable law-enforcement skills and are expected to participate in department-provided training and professional development opportunities.
