The Leon City Police Force established the island area head quarters within the Tamarindo Beach & Ocean Estates development in August 2011. The armed, regular force police officers work in shifts, so that there is a police officer on duty at all times with full arrest and law enforcement capabilities. Based in the southern portion of the Tamarindo site, the officers represent a deterent to unsavory behavior, as the area develops with infrastructure and increasing construction materials & tools. Having the Leon Police Force agree to establish an office on the Tamarindo site is the result of 2-3 years of presentation work, with legal document support. At the conclusion of presentations and much review, the police management agree that the Tamarindo title is one of the most, if not the most, secure titles on the island. It is important pre planning to the Police to be satisfied that the land under their office is a strong title. As the island community group progresses, the police are planning to expand their patrols along the island partners lands to discourage tree poachers, hunters, turtle egg poachers and general theft. We are proud of this progress, as it provides a stable, lawful base from which to develop this valuable beach land in an orderly fashion. These pictures are the first day on the job in August 2011.
