The Downtown Police Bicycle Patrol Unit created in 2008 currently consists of 1 officer, Rebecca Foley, while forecasting the addition of another bike officer within our five year personnel plan. This additional officer would be utilized in our area parks, while assisting the downtown officer with special events. The bike officer patrols four days a week on a ten-hour shift. He patrols businesses and residential areas; gliding silently down streets and alleys to better catch criminals and protect the citizens of Boerne. In addition to patrolling the Boerne downtown area, the bike officer patrols the library, local parks, hike and bike trails, and Boerne Lake. Currently, the department issues the Trek 21 speed mountain bike, Fuji 21 speed mountain bike and Kona Safariland 21 speed mountain bike. The officer wears a special lighter weight uniform that consists of a royal blue "polo" style shirt, black pants or shorts, and a silver helmet.
