Special Enforcement Team

The Special Enforcement Team was originally established in 2004 in order to deal with “quality of life issues” affecting the City of Bangor which have been difficult to deal with using traditional patrol techniques.  Officers selected to work on this team are tasked to find innovative and creative ways of dealing police issues that are having some sort negative impacts on the community. Unlike patrol officers, members of this team are able to dedicate more time to specific issues without being called away to respond to other police matters.  The following is a list of duties that they are expected to perform:

1. Traffic Enforcement

2. Warrant Sweeps

3. Liquor Enforcement

4. Crimes against property

5. Maintaining high visibility in problem areas

6. Sex Offender Registry
