The Clayton County Police Department has grown immensely since its inception in the 1920s. The police department currently has over 500 employees, including 385 sworn personnel, and an annual operating budget of $38 million dollars. The fleet of vehicles has grown to over 300, which includes a mobile command center, two helicopters, 10 motorcycles, and a new Bearcat Armored Vehicle for the S.W.A.T. Team. Under Chief Gregory Porter’s command, the department has moved towards Community Oriented Policing, Problem Oriented Policing and Intelligence Led Policing with an emphasis on acquiring new technologies to aid patrol operations. Some of the new technologies currently being implemented include a new 700 MHz radio system and a new CAD (Computer Aided Dispatch) system with GPS tracking for patrol vehicles.
