Community Services Officer

The City of Rio Vista is now accepting applications for the position of Community Services Officer in the Police Department. Community Services Officer (\"CSO\") is an entry-level position offering hands-on experience for someone interested in a non-sworn position in a law enforcement environment.

CSO responsibilities vary from community outreach and social media communications to processing forensic evidence, traffic control, parking enforcement, code enforcement, and non-enforcement police patrol support.
