The section is responsible for maintaining and updating a comprehensive records-keeping system for the retention, maintenance and dissemination of all original police reports produced by department employees for law enforcement purposes. This includes the transmitting and updating of accident, crime and general public demands while remaining within the limits of the legal environment. The Section is composed of four distinct sub-units that perform various functions for the Department and the City of Reno. Records Supervisors oversee the general operation of the Section and report to the Records Manager, who in turn reports to Administrative Services Manager.
