OUR VISION
Safe Communities... A Secure Ontario
OUR MISSION
Committed to public safety, delivering proactive and innovative policing in partnership with our communities.
OUR VALUES
Professionalism, Accountability, Diversity, Respect, Excellence and Leadership
Ontario’s Mobilization & Engagement Model of Community Policing
Community Engagement & Liaison
Communities which have the greatest capacity to
resolve issues that threaten their safety, security
and well-being, require the least police assistance.
Situational Crime Prevention Measures: focus on
specific forms of crime - like double-cylinder, dual
bolt locks that prevent some forms of break and enter.
Police may have to find the natural community leaders
and engage them to help community members
increase their own safety, security and well-being.

Chatham-Kent Detachment 2014-2016 Action Plan
Ontario Provincial Police
Message from the Detachment Commander
As Chatham-Kent Detachment Commander, I am extremely proud to lead the dedicated men and women of this
detachment who serve our province with integrity and continue to make a positive change in people’s lives. As a
team, we remain committed to providing professional and effective enforcement and engagement in this coming
year, the first of a three-year OPP Action Plan cycle.
Our focus at Chatham-Kent Detachment remains concentrated on highway safety. We have a unique situation in
that the majority of our “community” is both transient and mobile - consisting of the nearly 30,000 vehicles that
travel through our area on any given day. This provides our detachment a perfect opportunity to focus on the ‘Big
Four’ of traffic enforcement: impaired driving (which increasingly is by drug as opposed to alcohol), speeding /
aggressive driving, distracted driving (now the leading cause of collisions in Ontario), and improper / no use of occupant restraints.
As primarily a traffic detachment, we have renewed our focus on “looking beyond the plate” when our members conduct traffic stops. This goal of
removing contraband drugs, weapons and dangerous criminals from our highways is in line with the OPP’s Provincial priorities of combatting
Violent Crime, Property Crime, and the Illicit Drug trade.
Other priorities we have for 2014 are an increase of education and enforcement surrounding commercial motor vehicles (CMV). We will continue
to work in partnership with the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) in our CMV enforcement efforts. We will also work to reduce any collisions
caused at the end-of-queue. This will be accomplished through partnerships with the MTO and MTO service contractors with advanced warning
solutions, through education and through reducing the time of highway closures where possible.
Our detachment also is responsible for policing two provincial parks and the Moraviantown on the Thames First Nations community (in
collaboration with the Moraviantown Police Service.) While crime in these areas is infrequent, and often seasonal, we have specialized units we
can draw on to support investigations as needed.
We also oversee policing and enforcement of all waterways in our area, employing a combination of a full-time marine operator, part-time
operators, and a summer student.
As Detachment Commander, I pledge to lead our members in being fully engaged each day, no matter the circumstances, and in maintaining the
high quality of engagement, education, and enforcement that the public on our highways and waterways has come to expect from the officers of
the Chatham-Kent OPP.

Chatham-Kent Detachment 2014-2016 Action Plan
Ontario Provincial Police
Our Detachment
•
Chatham-Kent Detachment is responsible for providing policing to all provincial areas of the Municipality of Chatham-Kent, consisting
primarily of traffic and marine safety.
•
Highway enforcement and response to calls for service occurs along a 66 kilometre stretch of Highway 401 between Essex and Elgin
Counties. The detachment also oversees enforcement on a 42 kilometre stretch of Highway 40 running through Chatham-Kent to the border
with Lambton County. Our detachment is also impacted by the Windsor-Detroit border crossing to the west of our patrol area and the SarniaPort Huron border crossing to our north.
•
Through Treasury Board 20 (TB20) funding, we also provide support to our neighbouring detachments of Elgin and Essex, adding another
120 kilometres to our area of impact. This funding came about in 2003 as a measure to enhance road safety along the Highway 401 corridor
in our area, providing additional officers for enforcement and visibility.
•
The Chatham-Kent OPP ‘community’ consists primarily of the 30,000 + vehicles that travel Highways 401 and 40 on a daily basis. The
community grows and shifts dependant on time of year, time of day, even weather conditions. Recent years have seen a steady, consistent
increase in the amount of traffic on our roadways and this trend is expected to continue. Having a community of this type presents challenges,
and rewards, for the officers assigned here, allowing for both extensive contact with the motoring public and opportunities for enforcement
and safety.
•
Chatham-Kent encompasses several bodies of water – Lake Erie, Lake St Clair, and the Thames and Sydenham Rivers. Due to this, and a
heavy recreational boating population, we maintain a full-time Marine Unit during the boating months. The role of this Unit is patrol,
enforcement, education, and response to calls for service on the water. Traditionally, Chatham-Kent OPP has participated in the Ontario
Summer Experience Program and has hired a student to assist with marine duties for the summer.
•
Our detachment provides logistical and administrative support to officers on the Moravian on the Thames Delaware First Nation, as well as
policing to that community when called on. We also are responsible for law enforcement and safety, in conjunction with Park Wardens, at
both Wheatley and Rondeau Provincial Parks. These parks are primarily busy in the summer, when thousands of campers and day-users
take advantage of the natural benefits the parks have to offer.

Community Satisfaction Survey
Year: 2013
This survey is a tool for gathering public opinion on policing issues and ratings of OPP service delivery. It can serve as:
•
•
•
•
a report card detailing how the people served by the OPP rate that service;
a gauge of public concern about crime and policing issues;
an indicator for making improvements to police services; and
a means to measure how Ontarians view the OPP's service delivery.
The OPP Community Satisfaction Survey is a telephone survey conducted with the general public by research company R.A. Malatest &
Associates Ltd., on behalf of the OPP. The survey is conducted for each OPP detachment every three years and annually province-wide.
Randomly selected telephone numbers and Random Digit Dial were used to sample respondents who were at least 16 years old, where no
member of the household was employed by the OPP.
The next Community Satisfaction Survey for Chatham-Kent Detachment will be conducted in the late summer / early fall of 2014
1.
2.
3.
4.
97% of respondents to the OPP Community Satisfaction Survey report feeling ‘very safe’ or ‘safe’ in their OPP-policed
communities. Further to the above, respondents living in areas policed by the OPP (3.50/4) felt safer than respondents living in
areas policed by other police services (3.40/4)
Of the 115 respondents (or 11.4%) who said they had contacted the OPP in the past year, 83.2% were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’
with the ease of contacting the OPP
83.1% of respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the visibility of the OPP’s marine patrols. As a detachment with a fulltime summer Marine Unit, we feel this reflects well on our presence on the local waterways
The 401, the busiest highway in Ontario, is our ‘community’ and we feel that our efforts at enforcement and safety contribute greatly
to these levels of satisfaction:
•
•
•
•
•
•
5.
The majority of respondents (59.3%) travel on provincial highways ‘frequently’ (on a daily or weekly basis)
91.3% of those respondents felt ‘very safe’ or ‘safe’ when travelling on Ontario’s provincial highways
90.1% of those respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the visibility of the OPP on the highways
75.3% of those respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the OPP’s enforcement of aggressive driving laws
85.6% of those respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the OPP’s enforcement of drunk driving laws
65.9% of those respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the OPP’s enforcement of distracted driving laws
All things considered, 95.9% of respondents were ‘very satisfied’ or ‘satisfied’ with the overall quality of police services provided by
the OPP. Taking into account how many residents of Ontario live in OPP-policed areas, and the amount of daily contact OPP
officers have with these residents, this is an extremely high level of satisfaction with the OPP.

Chatham-Kent Detachment 2014-2016 Action Plan
Ontario Provincial Police
List of Priorities for 2014-2016
The OPP’s action planning process ensures compliance with the Adequacy and Effectiveness of Police Services Regulation (Adequacy
Standards) filed as O. Reg. 3/99 in 1999.
Through assessment, analysis and consultation, the following priorities were identified under three categories: crime, traffic and other policing.
The priorities reflect provincial, regional and local issues. Subsequent local analysis and consultation will further identify the specific areas of
focus for this detachment. Priorities will be addressed by effective management strategies combining engagement, education and enforcement.
Operationalized within the construct of Ontario’s Mobilization and Engagement Model of Community Policing these strategies will provide the
foundation for sustainable community safety and reduced victimization.
