Allow "Company Police" In The State of Florida!
Allow the State of Florida private security agencies to obtain license to own and operate "Company Police" on agencies contracted properties. Company Police will have jurisdiction ONLY on agency contracted properties and no where else outside the agencies jurisdiction.
Company Police will have the power to detain for any law that is broken until police within that jurisdiction arrive on site of the scene / incident. Company Police will have the right to use red and blue lights as well as a siren with PA system on agencies contracted property ONLY.
Company Police will have to be certified law enforcement officers within the State of Florida, completing all of the required training. Company Police will be monitored tightly within the security companies agency.

Why is this important?
Company Police will be able to take away the call load on the local law enforcement departments and bring safer communities to the State of Florida making it a safer and better destination for residents and tourists. Doing so will bring more tourists, jobs and funds for the State of Florida.
Many times, security companies call on the local police department for a crime that they are witnessing and the local police department is tied up with another call. Allowing Company Police will bring a better response time and get more criminals off the street as well as bringing the call load off of the local police departments.
