City/Township Joint Strategic Response Team Formalized

Sylvania Township and the City of Sylvania police departments have always cooperated when needed. However, earlier this year we formalized this relationship with the City, in order to provide better response in unusual circumstances by forming the Sylvania Metro Strategic Response Team to respond to high-risk situations jointly throughout the Sylvania community. This provides broader coverage for our community while minimizing the costs to both governments. Our officers will train together at times, and be available in both communities when the need arises.

While this is an improvement to services in Sylvania Township, in reality the departments work together on a variety of issues including sharing information about local crimes, training together, and in general working to make Sylvania safer.
