Note: All officers must remain within their jurisdiction of Grapeseed unless in the following cases:

• Transporting an individual under arrest to a prison / jail or any other Government building

• Mutual aid at the request of another local department

• To assist a fellow officer in peril or initiating / continuing a vehicle pursuit or assisting in an “All Call” situation

• All GVPD must go 10-41 or 10-42 from 2009 Grapeseed Main St. It’s the bank.

Law Enforcement Policy

GVPD officers are required to follow all other procedures and policies as listed in the AG Law Enforcement SOP while conducting their service. These include but are not limited to the following:

• Proper RTO in LEO frequency; Voice must be spoken normally and clearly

• Proper care and custody or any detained or arrested persons or property

• Proper use of force as per the “Use of Force Triangle” and AG LEO SOP

• All officers must be respectful and courteous as all other LEO departments require

• GVPD Officers may ride along with units from other departments as long as the GVPD Officer is the driver.

Community Outreach Officers

Community Outreach Officers specialize in assisting the local farming and fishing community with any issues they may have that require law enforcement. They may patrol as normal GVPD officers but may only drive the Bronco due to the rough roads their jobs require them to frequently drive. CO officers will do their best to maintain a healthy and friendly relationship with Grapeseed’s working class population and ensure work and trade can continue without any external interference. Outreach Officers do not have access to radar units in the Tahoe and should instead focus on their duties in the town proper.

Going Active GVPD

All units will gear up at their designated locations such as the Grapeseed Station and go 10-8 as normal LEO by calling into dispatch or manually in the CAD. GVPD’s designator is “G” or “Golf/George”. Do note that if the AOP is larger than Grapeseed jurisdiction and you are the only available officer you may not run GVPD as you may need to respond to calls in other towns / cities. No more than 2 GVPD cars can be patrolling at once. These can be 2 person cars but the vehicles on the street count cannot exceed 2.
