In addition to the primary shift times, there are also "early" and "late" shifts that are designed to insure adequate patrol
coverage for our citizens. Deputies are assigned to work in specific geographic areas throughout unincorporated Arapahoe County and the City of Centennial.
This geographic deployment of deputies insures response times to calls for service are kept to a minimum. The total number
of deputies assigned to specific precincts is determined by the on-duty watch commander and is based on specific shift, call
load and any special situations that are anticipated.
Patrol precincts are numbered 1-8, with precinct 1 being in the western most area (Littleton) and precinct 8 consisting of
all areas east of Powhaton Mile Road.
In addition to the Sheriff’s Office headquarters building, four substations or off-site facilities are utilized to aid in
the rapid deployment of resources. Currently substations are located in Precincts one, five, seven and eight. They Byers substation
in Precinct 8 is staffed during normal business hours Monday through Friday and available for residents to report non-emergency
crimes.
