The Records Division
performs a very important function of the
Police Department. Records personnel are responsible for
collecting reports filed by officers of the department.
Information from these reports is computerized and archived,
in order to be retrieved when necessary. The Records
Division disseminates copies of police reports and accidents
to the public. They prepare location and incident surveys
requested of the department. In addition, they conduct the
local criminal background checks that are often requested of
individuals.
The Records Division also collects information concerning
crimes committed in Orange. This information is
electronically transmitted to the State of Connecticut. This
information is used to determine criminal trends, crime
prevention programs, conduct crime analysis and police
planning and personnel assignments.
The Records Division is
open to the public Monday through Friday 9:00 am to 4:00 pm (closed
weekends and Holidays). They can
be contacted by calling 203-891-2134.
