1S7A1115 - Corey at Broward Sheriff's Advisory Council Valor Awards

April 10, 2025
Detective Corey wins Valor Award

Congratulations to Detective Corey! He was our Broward Sheriff's Advisory Council, Inc.'s Tribute to Bravery Valor Award winner this year! He won for his hard work, dedication, and dependability, not only in our Criminal Investigations Section, where he is our lead fraud investigator, but also his commitment to working together with the community to make a difference here in Coconut Creek. He brought crime prevention community roundtables to Wynmoor Village and The Foundation for Independent Living almost a decade ago, both of which still meet monthly. He was also our Special Olympics representative for many years. It's a well-deserved honor.

The City of Coconut Creek charges $60 per hour (minimum of 3 hours) to have a uniformed officer with marked patrol vehicle cover a detail. On national holidays, the charge is $75 per hour (same minimum). Details should be requested as soon as possible to help ensure coverage. Anytime a request is for 4 or more officers, one of the officers will be at a supervisor rate of $70 per hour. If a supervisor is needed on a holiday, the rate will be $90 per hour. For traffic related only details, whenever a police officer is not available, a police service aide can also work the detail. The vendor will be notified prior to the detail and can decline the police service aide if wanted. The City does not guarantee all details will be covered, but will make every effort to schedule an officer for your event. Once your request has been received, the Detail Coordinator will contact you to confirm. The Detail Officer for Event form is available and should there be any questions, you will be contacted.
