In the past several years, the New York City Police Department has departed from the traditional wisdom of police management. Instead we have modified conventional community policing ideology by recognizing that in order for this department to be effective in reducing crime and in responding to the needs of communities, many operational decisions should be made by commanders at the precinct level. Precinct commanders are in a far better position than Headquarters executives to appreciate and meet the particular needs of their communities and to direct the efforts of the 200 to 400 officers they manage. They are also in a better position than beat officers to understand and harmonize the agency's policies with the social dynamics operating within their geographic compass. To operationalize this, the NYPD's policies were revised to empower precinct commanders. Significantly expanded was their authority, responsibility and discretion as well as the degree of control they exercise over per ... [Read More]

2004 Women In Policing Conference Sponsored By The New York Police Department and The Policewomen's Endowment Association
Today, as I'm sure every officer in this room is well aware, women head the police departments in five major U.S. cities - Boston, Detroit, San Francisco, Milwaukee, and Nashville. And a woman, Chief Mary Anne Viverette of Gaithersburg, Maryland, will soon take the reins as President of the International Association of Chiefs of Police. ... Of course, while women have come a long way in policing since 1891, when the first police matrons were sworn in here in New York, we still have some distance to go in this country to ensure that women are fully represented in our nation's law enforcement agencies and that women police officers have every opportunity for advancement up the ranks. ...

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey - Port Authority Police
The Port Authority Police Force was created in June 1928 when 40 men were selected to police the Goethals Bridge and Outerbridge Crossing (then known as the Arthur Kill Bridge). These original officers were known as Bridgemen, nine of whom were later promoted to the rank of Bridgemaster, or Sergeants as we know them today. As the Port Authority facilities increased in number, so did its police force. With the opening of the Holland Tunnel in 1927, the three Metropolitan Airports and Marine Terminal in the 1940's, the force rapidly grew. In the 1950's and 60's, with the metropolitan area moving more toward mass transportation, the Port Authority Bus Terminal opened. And the Port Authority assumed control of the PATH system formerly known as The Hudson and Manhattan Tubes. Today the Port Authority Police Force numbers over 1600. The Port Authority's three major airports, Newark Liberty International Airport, John F. Kennedy International, and LaGuardia, handle over 80 million air pass ... [Read More]
