How the agency is organized
The city describes distinct Patrol and Field Operations and Administrative and Support Services divisions. Patrol provides the initial response to calls for police service, while the administrative division oversees separate support units. The public organization pages provide more useful structure than a headcount drawn from an undated secondary directory.

The city police site and staff directory provide division and officer contacts. Its partner links also distinguish nearby Gaston County agencies from this municipal department.
