Life and individual freedoms are sacred
All persons should be treated fairly and equitably
The role of police is to resolve problems through the enforcement of laws- not through the imposition of judgment or punishment.
The neighborhood is the basic segment of the community.
Because law enforcement and public safety reflect community wide concern, the police must actively seek the involvement of citizens in all aspects of policing.
The fundamental responsibility of the police is providing quality services.
