Community Liaison Office

Main Phone: (775) 328-3350

Deputy Don Patch - Central CLO Deputy Jeff Masten - South CLO Deputy Shawn Marston – Kids Korner

The Community Liaison Program, working under the Patrol Administrative Services Section,  was established in December of 1995 to provide a proactive response to certain concerns, requests, and non-emergency calls from citizens of Washoe County . The Community Liaison Office consists of three deputies. To more efficiently allocate manpower and provide maximum service to the community, the Sheriff's Office has divided the unincorporated area of the County into two districts, North and South. One deputies (CLO) is assigned to the North District, one to the South District and one to Kid’s to Senior’s Korner program. 

Service Requests

Each district's CLO handles requests for service received from citizens in their area.  Requests for service cover neighborhood problems such as neighbor disputes, speeders and other traffic-related issues, abandoned and inoperable vehicles, unlawful dwellings, unlicensed businesses, illegal dumping, and unlawful outdoor storage. The CLO will arrange for enforcement action, forward the request to the proper agency, or handle the situation personally.

To submit a Request for Service, call the Washoe County Sheriff's Office Front Desk at (775) 328-3001 or the Patrol Division at (775) 328-3009.

Community Involvement

The Community Liaison deputies are involved in a variety of special enforcement activities and programs such as enforcing underage drinking laws, the Illegal Dumping Task Force and the Truancy Task Force. Other responsibilities include managing patrols of public lands in the US Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management interface areas and providing public meeting security.

Misdemeanor Complaints

A primary function of the Community Liaison Program is to handle misdemeanor complaints. Typically, misdemeanor cases that require investigation are assigned to the CLO deputies. The original case may be taken by a deputy working a night shift where follow-up is not practical or may have been filed at the Sheriff’s Office front desk or on-line.
