- In August of 2007, the Gardena Police Department, under the leadership of Chief Ed Medrano, developed a District Policing Model which revolutionized providing police services in the City of Gardena. A major component of his policing model involves positive interaction and accountability to the businesses within Gardena. Using the District Policing Model, the police department has divided the city into three districts. Each District has a Lieutenant assigned specifically to resolve all issues that our businesses may encounter. Businesses are encouraged to contact their District Lieutenant to discuss their issues or to learn about business watch groups who regularly meet in their immediate area. Lt. Mike Saffell is responsible for District-One, which involves the area from El Segundo Blvd to Rosecrans Ave. Lt. Mark Rickerl is responsible for District-Two, which involves the area from Rosecrans Ave to Redondo Beach Blvd. Lt. Mike Bartlebaugh is responsible for District-Three, which involves the area from Redondo Beach Blvd to 182nd St. Their contact information is as follows:
- Lt. Mike Bartlebaugh 310-217-9612 mbartlebaugh@gardenapd.org
- Lt. Mike Saffell 310-217-9686 msaffell@gardenapd.org
